ArcGIS ONline - Operational Layers

[JamesArmstrong1]

I am still enjoying exploring and testing AGO.  IN trying on of the Map Application Templates, (Summary Viewer), I get an error that there is no Operational Layer.  I clearly have a map service layer on the map, but I cannot configure any layer to summarize the data in the map application, as it is greyed out.

I am serving out the following mapservice from my local ArcGIS server:

http://gis2.richmondnc.com/arcgis2013/rest/services/RichmondTaxForeclosure3/MapServer

Does anyone know what constitutes an operational layer in AGO?

any ideas, suggestions or directions would be greatly appreciated.

James,

The MapServer level (http://gis2.richmondnc.com/arcgis2013/rest/services/RichmondTaxForeclosure3/MapServer) does not support a feature query operation (see bottom of description page on link), but each of the layers it contains does.

So if you create a webmap by adding each of the layers separately (http://gis2.richmondnc.com/arcgis2013/rest/services/RichmondTaxForeclosure3/MapServer/0 and http://gis2.richmondnc.com/arcgis2013/rest/services/RichmondTaxForeclosure3/MapServer/1), you'll get a webmap such as http://arcgis4localgov2.maps.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=d0cb06c0e1714901826c0886c9488..., which can be configured into an app such as http://arcgis4localgov2.maps.arcgis.com/apps/SummaryViewer/index.html?appid=0dff70d563db4f59934e9c6c... .

Mike,

Thanks for the hint.  It is one of those time I really must say 'DUH!'.  Sometimes I get so far into the weeds.........
