It could be very useful if it was possible to enable it as another capability of a service. At one point I though the <A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/arcgis-rest-api/index.html#/GeoData_Service/02r3000000vs000000/">GeoDataServer </A>​service would be able to offer easy data extraction interface, but I have no experience with the GeoDataServer type and I am not sure what the future plans around it are.</P><P></P><P>Filip.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 12 Jun 2015 20:48:20 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-rest-apis-and-services-questions/arcgis-rest-api-wfs-output-format/m-p/107573#M502 FilipKrál 2015-06-12T20:48:20Z
