Layer Column Names to Dropdown

Question

Is there a way to get the column names of a dynamic map service into a drop down. What i am trying to do is build a tool that would allow me to select a field name from the drop down and enter a search term for that field to filter the layer. Any help is appreciated.

You can use the following code: XAML Code-Behind var layer = new ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer() { Url = "http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/HomelandSecurity/operations/MapServer" }; layer.GetAllDetails((a, b) => { if (b != null) MessageBox.Show(b.Message); else LayerNames.ItemsSource = a; });

To get the list of all fields for all sublayers of a dynamic layer you can try GetAllDetails(,); for a particular sublayer use GetDetails(int,,).
