counting points that intersect inside a polygon feature

deleted-user-wcpelUUf_XXx

lets say i have a polygon layer and a point layer what is the best way to return the number of points that intersect with each  polygon feature?

the executeForCount query returns the number of features in the layer.

and the intersect returns a new geometry.

is the only way to do that is intersecting  and then counting the points on every polygon feature?

is there something like aggregate-points for the api?

This is the only way that I am aware of unless you have some attribute in your data that you can summarize on (of example I have a municipality field on one of my point layers that gets the municipality name assigned when that point is created. I can then query for count on that point layer using a StatisticDefinition of count to get the point count by municipality).
