If not, is there another way to do this programmatically? I would much prefer to be able to use the REST interface as I am using that for all my other requests
Thanks for you reply Jake.
I had a look at the JSON and I can see the setting in properties. Unfortunately I cannot readily get this information. Currently, my application uses the ArcGIS REST API to render map images using the Print Tools ExportWebMap and I want to use the Export Map facility in the map services because it is quicker and more flexible (and less buggy;-). I need to use dynamic workspaces for this so I need to know in advance whether a map service has a dynamic workspace in it.If the service does not have a suitable dynamic workspace then I revert to my current method of rendering the map image.
Maybe the best way is to send a test "dummy" request to the service when I get its information and check the response? It is just a bit of a nuisance!
Cheers,Chris
Hi Christopher,
Not sure if there is a way to do this using the REST API, but here is an example using python to query the serviceconfiguration.json file that is created with the service:
<SPAN class="keyword token">import</SPAN> json <SPAN class="keyword token">with</SPAN> open<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>r<SPAN class="string token">"D:\arcgisserver\directories\arcgissystem\arcgisinput\Airports.MapServer\extracted\serviceconfiguration.json"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">as</SPAN> datafile<SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> data <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> json<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>loads<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>datafile<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>read<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> datafile<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>close<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">print</SPAN> data<SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'service'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'properties'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'dynamicDataWorkspaces'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN></SPAN>
This will return:
<SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">{</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"id"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"MyFileGDBWorkspaceID"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"workspaceFactory"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"FileGDB"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"workspaceConnection"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">"DATABASE=D:\\Temp\\Python\\Test.gdb"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">}</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN></SPAN></SPAN>
