Polygons and Lines in GEP

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to get Polygons and Lines into GEP. Unfortunately I did not find any hint in the resource-center about getting polygons and lines into GEP.
Right now I tried with a Json Input Adapter and I tried to fill in a polygon with the Json Geometry Object Notation, which you can find here:
http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/rest/apiref/geometry.html

So far I tried to feed the GEP with the following Json:[{"geometry": {"hasZ":true,"rings": [[10.114760188242185,49.44835148727626,0],[10.114760188242385,49.44835148727626,0],[10.114760188242085,49.44835148727326,0],[10.114760188242485,49.44835148727426,0],[10.114760188242185,49.44835148727626,0]],"spatialReference":{"wkid":4326}},"attributes":{"Alpha":"alpha"}]

But I get
[ATTACH=CONFIG]29438[/ATTACH]
the geometry is not recognized.

Is there any documentation about the formatting of Polygons and Lines?

Kind regards,
Rainer

Yes, Envelopes should be recognized as well.

Thank you for the link.
Is the GEP able to handle all this kind of geometries listed there? Specially Envelopes?

Kind regards

Yes, that is possible.  You would have to embed the JSON structure above into a single quoted text value in your csv message.  The quotes in the JSON structure have to be escaped.  Newline characters (carriage returns) need to be removed.  So the message in my previous post would look something like this:"{\"rings\":[[[10.114760188242185,49.44835148727626,0],[10.114760188242385,49.44835148727626,0],[10.114760188242085,49.44835148727326,0],[10.114760188242485,49.44835148727426,0],[10.114760188242185,49.44835148727626,0]]],\"spatialReference\":{\"wkid\":4326}}",alpha

If you need to know what a polyline looks like (or just want the complete spec for geometry objects, Take a look here
