Edit Operation Chain Edit Operations

//Chaining operations is a special case. Use "Chained Operations" when you require multiple transactions 
//to be undo-able with a single "Undo".

//Must be within a QueuedTask
editOperation1.Execute();

//or use async flavor
//await editOperation1.ExecuteAsync();

//Now, because we have the object id, we can add the attachment.  As we are chaining it, adding the attachment 
//can be undone as part of the "Undo Create" operation. In other words, only one undo operation will show on the 
//Pro UI and not two.
var editOperation2 = editOperation1.CreateChainedOperation();
//Add the attachement using the new feature id
editOperation2.AddAttachment(this.CurrentTemplate.Layer, newFeatureID, @"C:\data\images\Hydrant.jpg");

//editOperation1 and editOperation2 show up as a single Undo operation on the UI even though
//we had two transactions
//Must be within a QueuedTask
editOperation2.Execute();

//or use async flavor
//await editOperation2.ExecuteAsync();

Edit Operation add attachment via RowToken

//ArcGIS Pro 2.5 extends the EditOperation.AddAttachment method to take a RowToken as a paramter.
//This allows you to create a feature, using EditOperation.CreateEx, and add an attachment in one transaction.

var editOpAttach = new EditOperation();
editOperation1.Name = string.Format("Create point in '{0}'", CurrentTemplate.Layer.Name);

var attachRowToken = editOpAttach.CreateEx(this.CurrentTemplate, polygon);

//Must be within a QueuedTask
editOpAttach.Execute();

SetOnUndone, SetOnRedone, SetOnComitted

// SetOnUndone, SetOnRedone and SetOnComittedManage can be used to manage 
// external actions(such as writing to a log table) that are associated with 
// each edit operation.

//get selected feature and update attribute
var selectedFeatures = MapView.Active.Map.GetSelection();
var testInspector = new Inspector();
testInspector.Load(selectedFeatures.Keys.First(), selectedFeatures.Values.First());

  Debug.WriteLine("Operation is redone");
});
