QueryTask and FindTask result count

BrentHoskisson — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 19:28:39 GMT

It appears that QueryTask and FindTask do not honor the MaxRecordCount in the config file. Is this correct. I have verified 1000, cleared the REST cache, restarted the service and waited 24 hours and still only get 500 records. Is there a property to set or is this just an ESRI limitation?

Are you able to query the REST endpoint through the browser and get more than 500 records?

The service itself may have reached its limit of how many features it can return at once (the default is 500 for ArcGIS Server 9.3.1, 1000 for ArcGIS Server 10, 1000 for MapIt)... as mentioned here: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/help/creating_featurelayer.htm

Going through the REST endpoint never gives me more than 496 results.

I am still using 9.3.1. I didn't realize there was a hard limit for ArcGIS Server. I just assumed it was a configuration setting.

I had the same problem after changing this property. Restarting the service was not enough, I had to restart ArcGIS Server on the host machine as well, in the MS Windows services dialog, restart ArcGISSOM and ArcGISSOC. After that I was able to get more records.

Thanks, that did it.

Where do we change this limit?

This limit is configurable using the Parameters tab of the Service Properties dialog box in ArcCatalog or Manager.
