Add a Feature Layer

Feature layers can be a group of layers, a feature service (.../FeatureServer), or a specific layer from the feature service (.../FeatureServer/0). The layer can be either a layer (spatial) or table (non-spatial). If a feature service is added, it is used for asset configuration solely and will not display on the map; add a web map containing the feature service to the service definition to display the feature service on the map.

1. Click the Service Resources tab.
2. Click Add on the GIS Service Resources panel.

3. Enter a Name for the service.
4. Enter the Url of the service.
5. Select Feature Layer from the Service Type drop-down list and click Add.
6. Select the new resource from the GIS Service Resources panel to finish entering the Resource Details.

The Id, a unique number assigned to the service resource, appears to the right of the resource Name.

7. Select the Security Type, either No Security, OAuth2 App, OAuth2 User, or Token.

See Configure Service Resource Security for more information on security types.

8. Click the open service link icon next to the Url field to quickly check the service connection.

Once a Feature Layer is added as a resource, add it to a Service Definition. See Add Services to a Service Definition for more information.

NOTE: Designer automatically saves the changes you make. A notification will appear in the top-right corner of the window that says Data Saved when you make changes to the page.
