AGOL Maps not displaying text on features as desired...

BrianO_keefe

So I have an MXD that is like this...

When I publish this as a REST Service and dump the WHOLE GROUPED LOT of Features (Parcels and Lines) with the Labelled features from the MXD then I get this...

BUT... if I try to grab just the individual layers with labels and display them...

Using this REST Service : Layer: Lot Numbers (ID: 3) 

As you can see... I get nothing.

I'm confused and frustrated...

When I hit the rest endpoint of the subdivisions layer, the server took 1.4 minutes to respond, with the response being an 84,000 line response. So the app times out when attempting to view this layer. The bottom line is that you really can't view this layer this way. Your service was authored as a tiled map service. This type of service is optimized for fast display because the service returns pre-created tiled images of the data. When you access the individual layer, you are bypassing the tiles and requesting that the server return the actual coordinates of features. However, you just get the raw coordinates and no labels. Also, if you have complex symbology, the layer will not display with it.

If you need to use this layer individually, your best option is to author a specific map service with only this layer. For speed, you can choose to make it a tiled map service rather than a dynamic map service.

Hope this helps,
