Is there a way to find if a map/feature service is AGOL hosted or is published through ArcGIS Server? We need to identify this programmatically. Tried to look and compare the service infos, but they look very identical and unable to latch on to an attribute that tells you if a service is published on ArcGIS Server or AGOL Hosted. The url patterns are quite different though. For arcgis server it is always http:://<hostname>/<arcgisinstance>/rest/services For hosted services it is always http:://services.arcgis.com/<‌orgid>/arcgis/rest/services

Yes, I think so it may not be possible. Maybe there's an indirect way by using a WHERE sql query that works differently for fileGDB and an enterprise gdb?

Is it possible to identify the workspace type (fileGDB or SDE) used in a map service? Any specific property exposed by the REST API of ArcGIS Server that can help here?

Since query layers bypass the geodatabase functionality, do they perform faster as compared to geodatabase feature classes when published as a mapservice? I know this could actually be tricky because, it depends on complexity of the query used to build the query layer. So, assuming that only two to three tables are used to be build the query layer with a simple join based on a key, will it actually perform better than a geodatabase feature class (with the columns pre-added to it by processing) ?

Hi Lucas, thanks for your response. I was wondering that can we use app builder in a situation where we are working entirely off of rest services that are on-premise, the way it is currently possible with flex viewer. Would we still need AGOL or Portal for publishing the app in such an environment?

If we develop an app using web app builder entirely with on-premise services instead of AGOL services, i.e., no credits are consumed, no authentication is required and all services are publicly available, do we still need an AGOL or Portal account to host the app? This is possible with Flex Viewer, we could develop apps for customers and deploy it in their environment without any dependency on AGOL or Portal. For developing using webapp builder, i know that either AGOL or Portal is required. But if we are deploying this for a customer on their webserver, do they need to purchase AGOL or Portal ? Can we set the appID to empty string " " in the config file?

Bjorn, Did you look at the key "id": "HdNMW2j6UI55aLXm" in the json returned by the request http://odot.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/portals/self?culture=en&f=pjson. Thats the orgid, its just named "id" instead of "orgid"

‎02-17-2014

Never mind. I got it. For private orgs, there is no way you can find the orgid without signing in, which makes perfect sense. For public orgs, you just hit this url, http://odot.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/portals/self?culture=en&f=pjson and it throws out everything about the organization including the orgid. Try the above url for a private org without signing in, it still throws out some basic info about the org, but does not include the orgid.

I know how to get the groupid for an ArcGIS Online Group. There are samples in the JavaScript API resource center, which show you how to get the group id. But given a url to the organization portal, e.g., http://company.maps.arcgis.com, how does one find the orgid of this organization without signing in, just to find all public items published by the organization?

I am having the same problem. Only that i am not using a solid state drive, I am using a normal hard drive and installed it to c:\

Hi, The exceptions to this are the ArcPy.Mapping module, and custom or third-party modules. Cheers Mike Thanks Mike, So this means, if i use some third party module like reportlab, it wont work, right? Because reportlab as a module has to be installed to your python installation (in case of desktop). The runtime has embedded python and we cannot install modules into the embedded python and package and distribute it, right? Will simple modules work, i mean the ones without any external dependencies like some utility functions, that we can append to the path (sys.path.append), they should get picked up in the preparation of gpk and should work fine. Am i correct? regards Anand

Thanks Bjorn, I am aware of the list of supported geoprocessing tools in runtime. The online documentation describes that clearly. About the second link to classes of arpcy, do you mean all ArcPy classes are available in the runtime? If thats the case, I am delighted to know! How about the ArcPy modules?, mapping is not available for sure (from another post). Don't see documentation for supported ArcPy modules in the runtime. thanks again Anand

I know there are only a few geoprocessing tools available through Arcpy in the runtime SDK and they can be used only with the standard license. I could not find documentation on what other classes of Arcpy are available/not available/planned for a future release? 1. Can you connect to an existing file geodatabase through arcpy and use search/insert/update cursors? 2. Are there any limitations to using cursors or they are work just like they work with ArcGIS Desktop-Arcpy? 3. I got to know from another post, that arcpy.mapping module is not available in the runtime sdk. I could not find documentation on which modules are available/not available when using arcpy in the runtime sdk. Does anyone know? We are planning to propose a wpf application using runtime sdk for a client and it is very important for us to know this. regards Anand

Thank you Shitij! Returning the point in the required format as illustrated in your sample code solved my problem. Now the rotate tool is able to read the PivotPoint

‎04-18-2012

I tried to pass the pivotpoint by using a small python script that accepted two parameters (x and y coords) and returned a point object. This way i am able to connect the output point object to rotate tool and it accepts that as "PivotPoint" when i drag the variable to rotate tool in model builder. However, when i execute the model, the rotate tool just ignores this and uses default # option and rotates the raster along the lower left edge. I have attached a snapshot of the model if it helps. I want to accomplish this using model builder only and without using Python and this should be possible.
