Run actions task – UNE for ArcGIS Documentation

UNE provides an application action framework based on messages/signals. It is possible to pass these as instructions to the application. There is a very rich set of instructions which may be passed.

When using the Run action task, a script must be provided that returns a single instruction or an array of instructions. The instructions will be executed in sequence.

For example the following script will pan the map to a point and open the find panel:

// Run an action.
// Pan to a location and change tool.
return [
    {
        command: "panto",
        geometry: Point({ x: 1000, y: 1000, spatialReference: { wkid: 102100 } }),
        flash: true
    },
    {
        command: "openpanel",
        panel: "panel.find" // Other examples "panel.[Custom Panel]" | 'panel.basemaps' | 'panel.plans' | 'panel.levels' |
        // 'panel.effects' | 'panel.protect' | 'panel.stencils' | 'panel.find' | 'panel.connectivity' |
        // 'panel.layers' | 'panel.selection' | 'panel.attributes' | 'panel.actions' | 'panel.messages' |
        // 'panel.dfeedback'
    }
];

Another example is zooming in on a feature from the search bar. This is achieved by adding a button to the find panel and adding the below code:

return {
  command: "zoomto",
  geometry: Extent(buffer($action.matchedlocationgeometry,50,"m"))
};

Copy Coordinates to Clipboard

This script allows you to create a custom action within the Look and Feel – Keyboard Shortcuts.

Sends the mouse Eastings/Northings position to clipboard.

// Define XY information
var cursorDetails = State("cursorPoint");
var xValue = Round(cursorDetails.x);
var yValue = Round(cursorDetails.y);
var clipboardText = `${xValue}${yValue}`;

// Return values as a message
return [{
    command: "set-clipboard",
    textvalue: clipboardText
}];

See Application Actions section for a list of possible actions.
