Can I update the Standardmaxrecordcount in a hosted feature layer

Question

I have an application that does REST queries to populate data into reports; there are no maps involved. Some of the reports can contain a great deal of data-- more than 32,000 records. Is there a way to update the standardMaxRecordCount for a feature layer? The code is C#, not JavaScript--please don't suggest JavaScript answers as re-writing all of the reports at this point is not feasible.

The REST API update Definition (Feature Layer) Example five shows the standardMaxRecordCount in the list of properties-but when I attempt to update using this JSON, only the maxRecordCount was modified:

{
 "maxRecordCount" : 3000, 
 "standardMaxRecordCount" : 40000, 
 "maxRecordCountFactor" : 1, 
 "exceedsLimitFactor" : 1
}

How does the maxRecordCountFactor impact the number of records returned?

Is there something that explains the relationship between maxRecordCount, standardMaxRecordCount, and maxRecordCountFactor.

Thank you for the link. Unfortunately it does not answer my questions:

1) Can I update the standardMaxRecordcount in a hosted feature layer?

2) How does the maxRecordCountFactor impact the number of records returned?

Hi Chris,

For Feature layers, the below link explains the different ways those parameters are honored internally in the API. Hope that explains.

https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/services-reference/feature-layer.htm

Extracted from above link:

-          The property maxRecordCount is used if the resultType value is none. This can be the default server assigned (1000, 2000) or a value that is overwritten by the service owner or admin.

-          The property standardMaxRecordCount is used if the resultType value is standard. Example: ("standardMaxRecordCount" : 32000)
