ArcGIS Server Services Directory root

URL:: https://machine.domain.com/webadaptor/rest/services
Methods:: GET
Version Introduced:: 9.3

Description

The root resource page resource is the initial entry point into the ArcGIS Server Services Directory. This resource represents a catalog of published folders and services on an ArcGIS Server site. The current version of ArcGIS Server is also returned in the response. The value of the version is a number such that its value at a future release is guaranteed to be greater than its value at a previous release.

Request parameters

Parameter Details

Parameter	Details
`option`	Note Support for footprints has been removed at ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1, and the `footprints` value for this parameter has been deprecated. If `option` is `footprints` , the footprints of all map, feature, and image services in that folder are returned as a feature collection. This is only supported the response format (`f` ) is set to `json` . Value: `footprints`
`outSR`	Note Support for footprints has been removed at ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1. The spatial reference of the geometry returned in footprints. This parameter is supported only when `option` is specified as `footprints` . The spatial reference should be specified as a well-known ID. If `outSR` is not specified, the geometry is returned in `GCS_WGS_1984` .
`f`	The response format. The default response format is `html` . Note The `sitemap` and `geositemap` formats generate XML sitemaps that can be submitted to various search engines. The `sitemap` format includes the Services Directory URLs to all your services. The `geositemap` format includes the KMZ footprint URLs to your map and image services. Note that if you've enabled security, an empty sitemap will be generated. Values: `html` \| `json` \| `kmz` \| `sitemap` \| `geositemap`

option

If option is footprints , the footprints of all map, feature, and image services in that folder are returned as a feature collection. This is only supported the response format (f ) is set to json .

Value: footprints

outSR

The spatial reference of the geometry returned in footprints. This parameter is supported only when option is specified as footprints . The spatial reference should be specified as a well-known ID. If outSR is not specified, the geometry is returned in GCS_WGS_1984 .

f

The response format. The default response format is html .

Values: html | json | kmz | sitemap | geositemap
