Create WMS Layer without GetCapabilities request

[KiKof2]

Hello everyone

In the 3.x version of the ArcGis API for Javascript it was possible to add a WMS layer to a map without fetching the GetCapabilities document by adding a resourceInfo object to the constructor.

Because I am migrating a project I need to implement this behavior with ArcGis API for Javascript 4.17, but in the documentation for WMS layers there is no way described to skip the GetCapabilities request. Is there a way to add a WMS layer in ArcGis API for Javascript 4.x without loading the GetCapabilities document?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is not currently a way to add a WMSLayer in 4x without making the GetCapabilities request. Out of curiosity - what is your technical limitation for not wanting the GetCapabilities request to be made? 

If you want to formally request this feature in the 4.x API, we recommend contacting support.

Thanks,

Anne
