Description
The federate operation federates either a GIS Server, ArcGIS Image Server, or a Workflow Manager Server with an organization.
The federate operation performs a validation check to determine whether the provided service and administrative URLs are accessible. If the resulting validation check fails, a warning is returned. A SEVERE log type is also returned in the organization's logs. After federation, administrators will be unable to set a server role for the federated server.
Once a server has been federated with an organization, services that exist on the ArcGIS Server site at the time of federation are automatically added to the portal as items. The administrator who performs this operation will be assigned as the imported service's owner and, once the operation is complete, can reassign ownership to other members in the organization. Any subsequent items published to the federated server are automatically added as items on the portal and are owned by the user who publishes them.
