Properties

Property	Explanation	Data Type
associationSource (Read Only)	The associationSource object. This object can be used to retrieve properties of the association sources.	Object
createDirtyAreaForAnyAttributeUpdate (Read Only)	Whether dirty areas are created for any attribute update when the network topology is enabled. True—Dirty areas are created for any attribute update. False—Dirty areas are not created for any attribute update.	Boolean
creationTime (Read Only)	The creation date and time of the trace network.	DateTime
globalID (Read Only)	The Global ID of the trace network.	String
minimalDirtyAreaSize (Read Only)	The minimum size of the dirty areas in the network topology.	Integer
networkAttributes (Read Only)	The networkAttributes object. This object can be used to retrieve properties of the network attributes.	Object
proVersion (Read Only)	The version of ArcGIS AllSource used to build the trace network.	String
schemaGeneration (Read Only)	The schema generation value of the input trace network.	Integer
sources (Read Only)	The sources object. This object can be used to retrieve properties of the trace network sources.	Object
