I am trying to figure out how to print without a map UI. I want to save ExportWebMap JSON out to a file for later use. The requirement is to be able to select several saved maps to print from a list (so no map UI). My plan was to save the ExportWebMap JSON when they save the map initially so I can just retrieve it and send it in the PrintTask.
and looks like I will have to generate my own ExportWebMap JSON and post it to the GIS server for export. Any shortcuts on generating the ExportWebMap JSON? Another post mentioned using printTask._getPrintDefinition() just for getting some of the JSON, but that throws me an error "Unable to get property layerIds of undefined or null reference". Any other things I could try to get some of the ExportWebMap JSON or am I stuck with an all manual creation of it?
Let me know if there are any ideas out there or if anyone has implemented something similar. Thanks!
