AlexGole — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 03:41:56 GMT

Hi all,

Hi Alex,

I tested this from my side and the issue I believe is that Server REST endpoint doesn't honor this parameter: showAttribution that generates from JavaScript API side.

Checked the REST API online documentation ArcGIS REST API, but I didn't find any reference point to showAttribution, But when you take a look about the request, you can see WebJSON contains "showAttribution"

"mapOptions": {
        "showAttribution": false,

I have already logged an enhancement for the ArcGIS Server [ENH-000095722 showAttribution value doesn't honor in Export Web Map Task in REST]

What I have done is to remove the dynamic element for map attribution in the layouts for the print task when I setup my own custom print service:
