geometry service distance calculation between two geometries

Hi,

I am getting below error while running the geometry service to calculate distance btw two geometries.

Unable to complete operation.
The operation was attempted on an empty geometry.

http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/Geometry/GeometryServer/distance
?sr=4326
&geometry1=-106.61%2C+35.1107
&geometry2=-108.61%2C+35.1107
&geodesic=true
&distanceUnit=MILE
&f=html

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Chitra

Here is the documentation for the distance operation.

You need to pass the geometries as shown.

{ "geometryType" : "esriGeometryPoint", "geometry" : { "x" : -95.23, "y" : 31.71; } }

There's an example URL at the bottom of the page for reference.
