String
Triggering Events
(Optional)

String
Script Expression
(Optional)

An ArcGIS Arcade expression that defines the rule. To keep the existing expression, leave this parameter empty. If an expression is provided for this parameter, it will replace the existing Arcade expression of the rule. If you alter the script expression of a batch calculation or validation rule, the rule must be reevaluated.

Calculator Expression
Exclude From Client Evaluation
(Optional)

Specifies whether the application will evaluate the rule locally before applying the edits to the workspace.

The default for this parameter corresponds to the existing value set for the rule. That is, if the input rule has the exclude from client evaluation parameter set to false, the default for this parameter will be unchecked so the rule will not be automatically excluded. This parameter is not applicable for validation rules or batch calculation rules.

  • Checked—The rule will be excluded from client evaluation.
  • Unchecked—The rule will not be excluded from client evaluation.

Boolean
Triggering Fields
(Optional)

A list of fields that will trigger an attribute rule to run when an editing event occurs during an update trigger for calculation and constraint attribute rules. If no fields are specified, the tool will use all fields.
