ArcGIS connector

The ArcGIS connector is used to import layers from an ArcGIS server via ArcGIS REST API, using the following syntax:

https://<host>/<site>/rest/services/<folder>/<serviceName>/<serviceType>/<layerId>

1. Choose an option:

   • If you want to create a dataset, click Catalog > Datasets and click the New dataset button.

   • If you want to add a source to an existing dataset, click Catalog > Datasets and select the desired dataset. Then, click Add a source.

2. In the wizard that opens, select ArcGIS under the Configure a remote service section.

3. Configure your HTTP connection to import the ArcGIS layer:

   • Under the Information URL section, enter the URL to the ArcGIS layer. For example, http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Hurricanes/NOAA_Tracks_1851_2007/MapServer/0

4. Configure your authentication method under the Connection information to the HTTP server section. Supported authentications are:

   - No Auth

   - Basic Auth (username/password)

   - OAuth2, client credentials flow

5. From the preview of the first 20 records that appears, configure the source.

6. Configure the dataset information or use the prefilled values:

   • In the Dataset name field, enter the title for this dataset.

   • In the Dataset technical identifier field, enter a meaningful identifier for this dataset.

   • If you want anyone with access to your domain to be able to explore the dataset, toggle off Access restricted to allowed users and groups.
