create vtpk from Esri Vector Basemaps

MichaelDavis3

Is there a supported workflow to create a vector tile cache (.vtpk) from an ESRI vector basemap? There are export versions of the vector basemap layers available and the "Create Vector Tile Package" tool in ArcGIS Pro mentions generating vector tiles from a basemap, but I have yet to get one to actually export. The ArcGIS Pro tool returns an error every time saying the layer type is not supported for vector tile packages.

Does anyone have a method that actually works for this?

Hi Michael,

The Vector Basemap you are trying to export in ArcGIS Pro is your own published layer or one of the Esri published basemap? What is the error you are getting? Can you give us exact error message?

You can try using ArcGIS Runtime SDK for iOS: AGSExportVectorTilesTask to create .vtpk from a vector basemap.

Hi Nimesh -

For our initial development and testing we were hoping to generate a vtpk of the ESRI Navigation vector basemap (export version) in ArcGIS Pro to "bake in" with the app install package. Further down the road I think the plans are to develop a custom basemap specific for the app.

Regardless of the vector tile layer used I get this error:

001852: Layer type is not supported for vector tile packages.—Help | ArcGIS Desktop

Can you send me the link to the ESRI Navigation vector basemap (export version) you are using?

I've tried these:

https://basemaps.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World_Basemap_v2/VectorTileServer

https://basemaps.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World_Basemap_Export_v2/VectorTileServer

Both return the error in ArcGIS Pro

Using ArcGIS Pro 2.2.4 BTW.

How can I combine the multiple base map .vtpks?
Scenario: I export the Topographic map to 2 different extents maps. I want to combine those two into one .vtpk
