Cannot add WMS to map

Boyang_Wang — Wed, 28 Jul 2021 17:53:44 GMT

I would like to add this WMS to my map in ArcGIS Pro. I think I succeeded before but today when I try to insert it as a connection to WMS server, it showed "Connecting" for one second and disappeared without adding anything. Does it happen to you as well? The service URL is https://img.nj.gov/imagerywms/Natural2019 I believe.

I tried to use "Open in ArcGIS Pro" in the item description page, and it did work by inserting this WMS to a empty project. However, I want to insert this WMS to an existing map that I am working on.

You will be able to add the WMS Server using Insert tab > Connections > New WMS Server.

Drag/Drop the desired layer from Catalog Pane > Servers > expand the specific WMS Connection

I forgot to do the second step: looking for the inserted server in the catalog. I thought the server image would be automatically added to the map after inserting the connection. Thank you @JayantaPoddar!

Alternatively, You can choose the following method.

Map Tab > Add Data dropdown > Add Data from Path.

This will add the WMS layer directly to the map.
