Update attributes of Esri FeatureLayer from Leaflet

Question

I have a shapefile hosted as Feature Layer at ESRI Server.

I create a Leaflet application where I want to enable an attributes update of my Feature Layer (field 'Status'). I have customized a popup where users can choose an attribute value from the list. This value has to be sent to the server as soon as they click the "OK" button.

I tried to make use of Ajax. Console log returns an updated attribute, however I can not see any changes when I look at the data at ESRI Server.

Probably UpdateFeature function works only with geometry.

var net = L.esri.featureLayer({ url: netURL}).addTo(map);

var status_content = '<form role="form" id="form" enctype="multipart/form-data" onsubmit="addMarker()">'+
                  '<p style="font-size:12px;"><b>Update status</b></p>'+
                  '<div>'+
                      '<select class="form-control" id="st" name="new_status">'+
                        '<option value="etab">Established</option>'+
                        '<option value="plan">Planned</option>'+
                        '<option value="default">Default</option>'+
                      '</select>'+ 
                  '</div>'+
                  '<div align="right" >'+
                  '<button type="button" title="Save new status" class="ok" id="OK"><img src="ok.png"></button>'+
                  '</div>';

net.on('click', function(e) {
       net.bindPopup(status_content);
       e.layer.openPopup();
       $(document).ready(function(){
          $("#OK").click(function(){
              e.layer.feature.properties["Status"] = $("#st").val();
              net.updateFeature(e.layer.feature.properties.Status);
              console.log (e.layer.feature.properties.Status);
              e.layer.closePopup(); 
              });
          });
    });

Answer 1

I have figured it out myself.

It started to work as soon as I changed the line

net.updateFeature(e.layer.feature.properties.Status);

to

net.updateFeature(e.layer.feature);

You have also be sure that the hosted Feature Layer is open for editing (updating of attributes in my case). This can be done via Layer Setting at ArcGIS Server.
