Enable Attachments in Dynamic Map Layer

LloydBronn — Mon, 28 Aug 2023 13:27:09 GMT

Hey,

I'm working with custom popups in dynamic map layers hosted on our ArcGIS server. I'm trying to figure out how to enable attachments. I've found exactly one example for attachments with feature layers, but nothing for dynamic map layers. Is this even possible?

Thanks!

Hi Lloyd,

Since you are working with an ArcGIS Server service, you will need to enable attachments at the feature class level.

Sorry, the attachments are already enabled in the geodatabase before the map is shared as a service on the server. On our rest services menu, Has Attachments = true. I guess what I'm asking is how do I see the attachments in the custom popup in the dynamic map layer? I can't find any examples of this on the ESRI Leaflet page.

we don't have any attachment samples because Esri Leaflet doesn't provide any wrappers to simplify working with them. its absolutely possible, but its up to you to write the business logic to do the querying and display the results.

L.esri.Task and L.esri.request are both low level utility classes to simplify making requests to ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Server services that would be worth taking a look at. if you want to give it a shot and can take a stab at writing some code, i'd be happy to help further.

Thank you! I am completely new to web development. Can you point to any examples of these classes being used in a similar way?
