URL tokens

URL token Details

URL token	Details
`layer` (Required)	The layer identifier. The value must be a valid layer identifier advertised in WMTS service metadata (GetCapabilities response). Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 layer=0`
`style`	The style identifier. The value must be a valid style identifier advertised in WMTS service metadata (GetCapabilities response). Note Since ArcGIS Server WMTS will always have only one style, the client can omit this parameter, or code it as `default` . Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 style=default`
`tilematrixset` (Required)	The `TileMatrixSet` identifier. The `TileMatrixSet` is a concept in the OGC WMTS specification that is similar to Tiling Schema. The value must be the identifier of one of the `TileMatrixSet` advertised in WMTS service metadata (GetCapabilities response) that includes a well-known `TileMatrixSet` such as Google Maps or ArcGIS Online, or a customized `TileMatrixSet` defined by the service publisher. Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 tileMatrixSet=google_maps`
`tilematrix` (Required)	The `TileMatrix` identifier. The values must be the identifier of one of the `TileMatrix` defined in a particular `TileMatrixSet`. Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 tileMatrix=tileMatrix0`
`tilerow` (Required)	The row index of a tile matrix. Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 tilerow=0`
`tilecol` (Required)	The column index of a tile matrix. Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 tilecol=0` Example:
`format` (Required)	The output format of the tile. Example Use dark colors for code blocksCopy `1 format=png`
