maxRecordCount property of ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer

Question

Hi, esri/layers/ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer has a maxRecordCount property like this: <Number> maxRecordCount The maximum number of results that can be returned from query, identify and find operations. Requires ArcGIS Server version 10.1 or greater. (Added at v2.6) I expected this property to override the maxRecordCount set in the map service (which is 1000 by default). My problem is that right now I set this maxRecordCount property to 100 but when I make a spatial query on the layer 1000 results are returned anyway. Also when inspecting the request of the query I don't see this limit of 100 anywhere in the query parameters. We are using ArcGIS Server 10.1 and version 3.13 of the JavaScript API Did I misunderstand or doing something wrong? Thanks Code: this.dynamicMapServiceLayer = new ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer(parameters.url, { opacity: parameters.opacity, maxRecordCount: parameters.maxRecordCount }); * GET request parameters of Query: * * Query String Parametersview sourceview URL encoded* f:json * where: * returnGeometry:true * spatialRel:esriSpatialRelIntersects * geometry:{"rings":[[[271363.347754655,5137593.251916758],[287039.4222343921,5137593.251916758],[287039.4222343921,5126301.73822563],[271363.347754655,5126301.73822563],[271363.347754655,5137593.251916758]]],"spatialReference":{"wkid":32187}} * geometryType:esriGeometryPolygon * inSR:32187 * outFields:Matricule * outSR:32187

Rickey,

Yes we already know about this, and this is the 1000 limit I mentioned. However we have a lot of services and we'd like to avoid manually changing this server side for each client. For us it would be more convenient to have a simple maxRecordCount parameter for each of our client and pass it client side in the layer configuration.

I did see in the documentation that the maxRecordCount is not really an option you can pass when creating the layer. But I tried setting it after and got the same result.

this.dynamicMapServiceLayer = new ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer(parameters.url, {

opacity: parameters.opacity

});

this.dynamicMapServiceLayer.maxRecordCount = parameters.maxRecordCount;

Thanks

Yohan,

One option would be to change the service.

You can change 1000 to 100 here:
