This is supported from 10.1 onwards.
This document discusses the JSON representation used to describe a layerSource
object.
There are two types of layerSource
objects:
dataSource
Dynamic map layer refers to a layer in the current map service. If supported, use gdbVersion
to specify an alternate geodatabase version.
Note: type
and mapLayerId
are required.
{ "type": "mapLayer", //required "mapLayerId": <layerId>, //required "gdbVersion": "<version name>" }
{ "type": "mapLayer", "mapLayerId": 3, "gdbVersion": "SDE.dynamicLayers" }
Dynamic data layer is an on-the-fly layer created off of data from a registered workspace.
Depending on the type of dataSource
these layers are classified as:
fields
to control field visibility. If this value is null, then all the fields would be visible on the dynamicLayer.
type
and dataSource
are required elements.
{ "type": "dataLayer", //required "dataSource": <dataSource>, //required "fields": [ {"name":"<fieldName1>","alias":"<fieldAlias1>"}, {"name":"<fieldName2>","alias":"<fieldAlias2>"} ] }
{ "type": "dataLayer", "dataSource": { "type": "table", "workspaceId": "MAP", "dataSourceName": "SDE.Counties", "gdbVersion": "SDE.dynamicLayers" }, "fields": [ {"name":"name","alias":"County Name"}, {"name":"fips","alias":"County FIPS"} ] }
