it should work... that is the purpose of dynamic map service; as you modify the source map or data, the next export request from a web app should reflect those changes right away. At this point, I'd recommend you to contact Esri Support to take a look at what is going on. Without looking at your web app and/or not knowing how everything is setup, it is hard to pin down the problem... Thanks. ... View more

T. Long, I'm afraid, I don't quite understand it correctly. Since your map service's REST url is not changed, there is no reason you need to rebuild you web app... it should simply work without any kind of modification. Thanks. Tanu ... View more

Yes, you can do that starting with 10.1. Few things you need to do: Server Side: you need to do is enable dynamic-layers capabilities for that cached map service. - When an "export" call comes to a cached map service (with dynamic layers capabilities enabled), it behaves as if it were a dynamic map service (does not use cached tiles at all). Web Application Side: In order to use that you in your web app, you need to the following: add two layers - use the same url an ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer use dynamicLayerInfo an ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer see visible scale range with no overlaps so that only one of them will draw at a given scale what will happen is that when the ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer is drawn, the app will sends an export call (instead of asking for tiles) with dynamicLayers and the cached map service will fetches features from the database, draws them and export an image which gets drawn on the app. hope this will help. ...

yes, you can add your logo. when you add an image into your template mxd, it gets added by reference using the path. In your case, the reason it is not drawing is most likely because the ArcGIS Server account does not have access to that folder. this is what we usually recommend. After adding an image on the layer, open the Properties of the image, switch to 'Picture' tab and check 'Save Image as a Part of Document' option. this should do it for you. ... View more

as of today, you must have at least one layer in your map document in addition to your table in order to publish that map document as a map service. ... View more

Schopp, that is expected behavior. Query operation returns the value in the original data type. Whereas Find and Identify operations return formatted string e.g. depending on the format assigned to the field, the return string may look like $123,345.90 or 9.054% etc. Hope this helps. ... View more

Starting at 10.1, ArcGIS Server provides solutions for printing from web applications -- out of the box PrintingTools service is the easy and quick one to start with. http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/#/Printing_in_web_applications/0154000004w5000000/ have you consider using that instead of your own arcpy export to pdf solution? if so, I was wondering is there any reason you can't use that. thanks. ...

But, it says to log into ArcGIS Server Manager and change the default printer page size settings. You need to log on to your server machine using "ArcGIS Server Account" user. Sorry, if there is such confusion. Is it done by setting the default page size for the Server Machine (done outside of ArcGIS Server Manager)? or on each client machine? yep, on the server machine, not on each client machine. But, the problem is my Server Machine where ArcGIS for Server is hosted is not connected to any printer and has no printer drivers/ports installed on it. you don't need to have the server machine connected to any printer. All you need is to install a printer/plotter driver on your server machine, make that the "default printer" and change the "default paper size" of that printer something large enough to fit the largest layout available in your printing service (don't forget about the paper orientation). ...

Getting statistics of a query layer is not supported as of today. ... View more

Sometimes, for particular query, the returned values are more than 1,000 where the end-user needs to export them as CSV file (from the web mapping application). I'd recommend to have a gp service which will execute the query, export to a CSV file on the server side and return it by url (or by value, if that is what you want). I'd not recommend to convert a query result to CSV on the client side especially when a query returns a ton of records. ... View more
