ArcGIS URL Services for Basemap/Tiled Layers

Question

Ok. I've decided to migrate to v200.0.0 (from v10.2.4)

To check the new features of the API version I executed the sample viewer (an ArcGIS Maps SDK for java demo app), and it woks fine when I'm at home. But at work it shows nothing, any map. It's blank. I run the application from command line to see the error messages but also the console is blank, no error messages. I tried with my mobile data (from my cell phone) and it works ok. So, I suspect that it is a proxy issue in my institutional network.

I'll request to my IT department to unblock or handle the appropriate permissions to access the ArcGIS services. But I need to provide specific URL's. I've looked for them in the web and the only I found is in this page https://developers.arcgis.com/documentation/mapping-apis-and-services/maps/services/basemap-layer-service/ but I'm not sure whether this is the correct and only URL I must provide.

Please, could you give me guidelines about this information?

Thanks for your response. In fact, it is not my applicaciont. It's an ArcGIS demo app called "Sample Viewer" which I downloaded here and, as you can see in the picture below, there's no really much information about the issue: The maps simply doesn't show and the console doesn't throw any error message. In regard to your questions above: * I just need to provide the URLs, I suppose the service layer servers, no authentication parameters are required. * I think the most general URL enclosing all the specific basemap types. In the webpage above two addresses are mentioned: https://basemaps-api.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/styles/ArcGIS:Navigation?type=style&token= https://ibasemaps-api.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World_Imagery/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}?token= I just need you to confirm whether the upper level would be enough, that is: https://basemaps-api.arcgis.com/ https://ibasemaps-api.arcgis.com/ If thery're not correct, please, could you provide me with the appropriate information? * I didn't catch what Fiddler is, what I'll try is to mount a project in my programming IDE and see what error in debugging I can catch

@edgar_eacg some initial thoughts on your issues:

- Does your application need to authenticate on your internal proxy to gain access to outside resources or do you need to specify the URL of each data service you access?

- If you do need the URLs for unlocking your proxy, then at what detail do you need this information?

- I can give you some URL information, but if you wire up your application to Fiddler you'll soon get a picture of the data your application is requesting.
