Updating Maxrecordcount

[najeebhall]

I have been attempting to update the definition of a hosted feature layer using the admin menu update feature definition option but  have not been successful. I have used the update definition many times before for other purposes that work, but when i change the maxrecordcount from 1000 to 2000 I get the message saying it was successful but the count doesn't actually change it is still 1000, should i be doing something else to do this? See images below:

Hello Najeeb,

What version of ArcGIS Server are you on?

Could you update MaxRecord by editing the hosted service instead?

From ArcGIS Server Administrator Directory > browse to the hosted feature service > edit from the bottom of the page > search for the MaxRecord in the json page and update MaxRecord.

Thank you.

we use version 10.6

Does the picture below capture what you meant?

i made an attempt but getting this error. I wasn't sure if ArcGIS Server Administrator was a completly seperate application

Update,

i went one step back and clicked edit from the main layer page

I attempted this below as well as coping the entire json and just changing that line, both yeild the error seen below
