Share as web layer - publishing a Feature Service

Thiru_P · ‎02-09-2022

When sharing a web layer aka publishing a feature service via a federated server (Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise), why is a map service created along with it?

Can I delete the map service and just have the feature service only? Will it impact the feature service in any way?

ArcGIS Pro 2.8.3

Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7.1

In the following help topic, it states that when sharing a feature layer that references data to ArcGIS Enterprise, it's shared as a dependent layer to a map image layer. Hence the why a map imager layer/service is created. I would not delete the map service.
