PROBLEM
In ArcGIS Online, it is sometimes necessary to edit the domain values for data precision. However, attempting to edit the domain values of a hosted feature layer is not possible as the Edit button is not available.
The image below shows that the List of Values (Domain) Edit button is not available.
This issue occurs when a hosted feature layer view is created from the hosted feature layer using the Join Features tool in Map Viewer Classic. When a hosted feature layer view is created, the hosted feature layer schema is locked to ensure the data in the view corresponds to the hosted feature layer source data.
To enable editing for the domain values, follow either of the workarounds provided below.
Warning: The instructions below include making changes to essential parts of your hosted feature layer view. It is recommended to make a copy of the original JSON before proceeding. Esri cannot guarantee results from incorrect modifications while following these instructions. Therefore, use caution and proceed at your own risk. Any problems encountered as a result of making these modifications are not supported by Esri Technical Support.
{ "hasStaticData" : false, }
{ "sourceSchemaChangesAllowed" : true, }
"lastEditDate" : '', "schemaLastEditDate" : '', "dataLastEditDate" : ''
The List of Values (Domain) Edit button is now available.
