Does anyone know of an identify widget that supports secure services Not a direct answer maybe, but the 3.0 API (currently in  beta) supports secure services (using token-based authentication) as long as the ArcGIS Server version is 10 SP 1 or greater. http://resourcesbeta.arcgis.com/en/webapis/flex-api/apiref/com/esri/ags/components/IdentityManager.html ...

Or, I can just wait until I move them to 2.4 which I plan to do within the next two weeks. FYI - just upgrading your application to 2.4 or 2.5 will not change anything in regards to crossdomain issues.  The requirements for crossdomain.xml is the same for all Flex applications. ... View more

does anyone know any tutorial on how to make a very basic map? im new here.:p While it's not really a tutorial the API Library download includes two examples, with a very brief readme.  Look in the "mobile" folder for BasicMap and WebMap.

Select Project folder, click Browse, and navigate to the downloaded project folder. 3. Add the API Library to the project through Project -> Properties -> Flex Build Path -> Library Path -> Add SWC (and locate the "agslib-2.5-2011-11-30.swc"). 4.

No, WMTS (tiled WMS) is not yet supported in the Flex Viewer (but it is supported in the Flex API). See http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/45233-WMST-Support-Flex-Viewer and http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/46672-WMTS-in-config.xml ... View more

I have a IIS virtual directory that substitutes  "/ags/services". This should work fine in general. You could test with for example http://mapservice.mapthespill.org/AGS/rest/services or http://gis1.sgrc.selkirk.ca/sgrcservices/rest/services.  I've heard other reports that some URLs don't work, but we haven't been able to figure out why yet.  Note that if the server has many services, it might take quite a while to finish checking them all. Meanwhile you'll just see the big busy indicator. I'm receiving a security error when I am trying to view in design and preview.  I'm assuming this is because that URL is not exposed to the internet.  (??) No, there is no requirement to have it exposed to the internet.  More likely this is a crossdomain issue or some other issue. Do you get the same security error when running it in a browser? Q. Do you have security enabled in some form on some of these servers? ... View more

Is all that part of the enabling of the IdentityManager ...?  Yes, all you have to do is enable the IdentityManager.  It will take care of prompting users to login for ArcGIS Servers that have been secured using token-based authentication. and then using that token as appropriate. "The Identity Manager is a singleton class that, when enabled, will manage the credentials for ArcGIS Server resources secured using token-based authentication. Note that only ArcGIS Server versions 10 SP 1 and greater are supported." http://resourcesbeta.arcgis.com/en/webapis/flex-api/apiref/com/esri/ags/components/IdentityManager.html ... View more

I use Flex Builder 4 with Flex SDK 4.1. Will this work with that? No. It requires Adobe Flex 4.5, see http://resourcesbeta.arcgis.com/en/webapis/flex-api/concepts/index.html#/Migrating_from_2_5_to_3_0/017p00000024000000/ ... View more
