11.1

The updates and changes described below are effective at ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1.

Feature service

The updates and changes below apply to feature services.

General updates

The updates below have been added, in general, for both hosted feature services and nonhosted feature services (referencing enterprise geodatabases) published from ArcGIS Pro:

  • Organization members assigned either the feature service privilege or the default administrator role can now create and manage feature service webhooks using the ArcGIS Server Administrator API. To learn how to create feature service webhooks, see Create (Webhooks)in the Server Admin API publication. For more information about the types of webhooks that are supported in ArcGIS Enterprise, see Webhooks in ArcGIS Enterprise.
  • Feature services now support 3D object feature layers. The following topics have been added, or updated, to support 3D object feature layers:
  • The service- and layer-level supportedExportFormats properties have been expanded to include CSV and GeoJSON as supported formats for exported data.
  • The createReplica operation does not require the geometry parameter when the syncModel parameter is set to none. This will cause all records to be included for the feature layer unless other filters are set. However, the geometry parameter is required if syncModel values other than none are used.
  • Both the service- and layer-level applyEdits operations now include the editsUploadId parameter. This parameter references an upload ID from an uploaded file containing service edits and allows you to upload edits to ArcGIS Server and reference them rather than providing the edits in-line with the edits parameter. Support for the new parameter is indicated when the service- and layer-level supportsApplyEditsbyUploadID properties, under advancedEditingCapabilities, are set to true.

    Note:

    The service- and layer-level supportedApplyEditsUploadFormats properties, under advancedEditingCapabilities, indicate which formats can be used for the edits in the uploaded file.

Enterprise geodatabase data

The updates below have been added for nonhosted feature services (referencing enterprise geodatabases) published from ArcGIS Pro:

  • The w parameter is now supported for qualifying nonhosted feature services. The w parameter returns attachments resized to a pixel width based on the value set for w.

Enterprise geodatabase data

The following updates apply to nonhosted feature services (referencing enterprise geodatabase data) published from ArcGIS Pro:

  • The extractChanges operation now supports the following changes to its parameters:
    • A new parameter, fieldsToCompare has been added. This parameter is supported on feature services when the supportsFieldsToCompare service-level property, under extractChangesCapabilities, is set to true.
    • Eligible feature services that perform this operation now return an asynchronous response for features, rather than IDs only, when the returnIdsOnly parameter is set to false. Support for this is indicated when the supportsFeatureReturn service-level property, under extractChangesCapabilities, is set to true.
    • A new parameter, serverGens has been added. This parameter provides the range of serverGens for all layers. This parameter can be used instead of the existing layerServerGens parameter. Support for this parameter is indicated when the supportsServerGens service-level property, under extractChangesCapabilities, is set to true.
    • Eligible feature services that perform this operation now return attachment differences when the returnAttachment parameter is set to true. Support for attachment differences is indicated when the supportsReturnAttachments service-level property, under extractChangesCapabilities, is set to true.
  • The createReplica operation's replicaOptions parameter's SyncDataOptions accepted property values have been expanded as indicated by the feature service's supportedSyncDataOptions service-level properties listed below:
    • The syncDataOptionsIncludeMissingUtilityNetworkLayers property is set to 128. When this property is set along with the syncDataOptionIncludeUtilityNetworkSystem property set to 16, additional utility network system tables are included.
    • syncDataOptionsPreserveTrueCurves is set to 256. When set, the true curves are preserved when taking data offline and syncing.
  • The synchronizeReplica operation includes a new parameter, reconcileBranchVersion. When it's set to true, the replica branch version is automatically reconciled with the default branch on synchronization. This parameter applies to replicas created from branch versioned data when the service has the versionPerDownloadedMap setting.

Hosted feature services

The following changes apply to hosted feature services:

  • At ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1, the ability to configure a hosted feature service to provide server-side caching was temporarily removed. Response caching is once again supported with the release of Enterprise 11.0. Organizations using Enterprise 10.9, 11.0, or later can cache queries made by services with response caching enabled. Organizations using a 10.9.1 deployment can still use services that support response caching, but queries will not be cached. For more information about enabling response caching on hosted feature service layers, see the Feature Layer topic.
  • Hosted feature services now support setting capabilities on a per-layer basis using the updateDefinition administrative operation. Feature layers support this new functionality when the services include the service- and layer-level property, supportsLayerOverrides, set to true.
  • Both the feature service and feature service layer applyEdits operations support the async parameter. The async parameter is supported when the service- and layer-level supportsAsyncApplyEdits property, under advancedEditingCapabilities, is set to true.

The following updates apply to hosted feature services running on a relational data store:

  • Hosted feature services now support the async parameter for the queryAnalytic operation. The async parameter is supported when the layer-level supportsAsync property, under advancedQueryAnalyticCapabilities, is set to true.
  • The ChangeTracking capability can now be enabled on a feature service resource. Adding the ChangeTracking capability exposes the extractChanges operation. Having both the Sync and ChangeTracking capabilities enabled at the same time on a hosted feature service is not currently supported.
  • The feature service and feature service layer applyEdits operation has a new parameter, returnEditsResults. When set to false, applyEdits only returns a response of the following form:
    {"success": <true|false>}
    The returnEditsResults parameter can be set to false only when the rollbackOnFailure parameter is set to true. This new parameter is supported by feature services that have the service- and layer-level supportsReturnEditResults property, under advancedEditingCapabilities, set to true.

  • Sync-enabled feature services support bidirectional server-to-server sync. Hosted feature services are automatically configured to support this when sync is enabled. Nonhosted feature services require nonversioned archiving or branch versioned data with replica tracking enabled. Bidirectional server-to-server sync is used by distributed collaboration.
  • A preferred time zone can be set to define the time zone the service author intends clients to use when working with date field values.

Enterprise geodatabase data

The following updates apply to nonhosted feature services that reference enterprise geodatabase data and are published from ArcGIS Pro:

  • The createReplica syncDataOptions has expanded to include options for the following:
    • Utility Network information—Supports a subset Utility Network system information including Utility Network metadata, associations, rules, and subnetworks.
    • Full Annotation—This option is to be used by clients implementing the full high-quality annotation data model including feature-linked annotation behavior.
  • Trace Network layers are a new type of layer that is created when Trace Networks are published as feature services.
    Note:

    The appropriate user type extension is required when editing feature services that contain Trace Network layers. The user type extension is not required to query Trace Network layers through the feature service.

  • ExtractChanges includes an option to return whether or not the changes have geometry updates.
  • The time zone of date field values can be defined as unknown.
    Note:

    Most clients released previously to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 will not be able to work with feature services that have the unknown time zone setting. ArcGIS Pro 2.7 or later can work with these feature services.

  • Layer queries support the "mode": "edit" setting of the quantization parameter.
  • Layers whose feature classes have had feature binning enabled are published with lodInfo provided in the feature layer resource. These layers also support returning bins through the layer query LOD parameter.
  • Attachments can be upgraded in the geodatabase to include a keywords column. Keywords can be set when adding or updating attachments using a feature service with upgraded attachments.
  • BLOB column values can be queried and edited with a nonhosted feature service.
