Supported Layers
Maptaskr supports various layer types for flexible and efficient data visualization. Compatible layers include standard geographic data formats, such as raster, imagery and vector layers. Users can also add custom layers for specific Dataverse datasets, such as accounts or work orders, to suit different needs.
This guide will go through all supported layers and various examples of implementations as well as supported functionality for each one.
Vector Tiles
This layer type supports ArcGIS .pbf format vector tiles, and will load the default styles.
Required Endpoints
Must conform to Slippy Map Tile standards as outlined here: Slippy map tilenames
Must have VectorTileServer within the URL. This is not case-sensitive.
Optionally, you may append /tile/{z}/{y}/{x} to the end of the url.
Example: https://exampleurl.com/VectorTileServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}
Required Response
The root URL (without the /tile endpoint) should at minimum contain the following information:

ArcGIS
This layer type supports ArcGIS Vector Tiles, Raster Tiles, Raster Image and Feature Server layers.
ArcGIS VectorTile
This layer type supports ArcGIS .pbf format vector tiles, and will load the default styles. Using the ArcGIS layer type, you can specify an item ID for a different stylesheet for the layer. The item ID must be hosted on ArcGIS Online, typically this is within the services.arcgis.com domain.
Required Endpoints
Must conform to Slippy Map Tile standards as outlined here: Slippy map tilenames
Must have VectorTileServer within the URL. This is not case-sensitive.
Optionally, you may append /tile/{z}/{y}/{x} to the end of the url.
Example: https://exampleurl.com/VectorTileServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}
Required Response
The root URL (without the /tile endpoint) should at minimum contain the following information:

ArcGIS FeatureServer
Required Endpoints
Must have FeatureServer in the URL. This is not case-sensitive.
Can provide URL with or without a trailing /.
Ending the URL with FeatureServer or FeatureServer/ will load all available layers within the feature service.
Providing a layer specific index at the end of the URL (example: FeatureServer/1 or FeatureServer/1/) will load only the specified layer.
Required Response

ArcGIS MapServer
Required Endpoints
Must have MapServer in the URL. This is not case-sensitive.
Can provide URL with or without a trailing /.
Ending the URL with MapServer or MapServer/ will load all available layers within the map service.
Providing a layer specific index at the end of the URL (example: MapServer/1 or MapServer/1/) will load only the specified layer.
Required Response

ArcGIS MapServer Tile
Required Endpoints
Must have MapServer in the URL. This is not case-sensitive.
There are two methods of using a Tile MapServer
- Cached XYZ Tiles
You must append
/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}to the end of the url. Example:https://exampleurl.com/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}. Will not work as a layer, can only be added as a custom/default basemap. Has difficulties with authentication when combining with complex proxy security. - Regular Mapserver layer
Raster basemaps or tile servers will typically contain indices which are used to categorise components that make up the basemap/tile layer.
By querying any of them, all of the data is returned.
You must append an index to the end of the url.
Example:
https://exampleurl.com/MapServer/0Easier to implement when combining with complex proxy security but this layer cannot be added as a custom/default basemap and only works as a layer.
Required Response
Must conform to Slippy Map Tile standards as outlined here: Slippy map tilenames

If using Layer, it must have the following:
- Extent
- Should contain finite coordinate values
- Should contain
spatialReferenceobject containing the wkid
- If MinScale and MaxScale are defined:
- Must be in the correct order i.e.
- if both are provided, MaxScale should be less than MinScale
- if MinScale is 0, this means the layer will be always visible until it reaches the MaxScale threshold
- if MaxScale is 0, this means the layer will always be visible after it exceeds the MinScale threshold
- if both values are 0, this means the layer will always render
- Must be in the correct order i.e.
- Export of PNG32 image tiles should be enabled and available
Example Postman Collection
Use the following Postman collection to test if your layer is likely to function as expected. This will help you test the endpoints mentioned above, as well as allow you to compare the resulting JSON against the requirements.

Footnotes
-
Vector Tiles will work with Auth Applications, Static Tokens and tokens injected via Additional Params. However, injecting additional non-token parameters and/or combinations of hosting the service via a proxy may not work at all or as expected. Our recommendation is to utilise public or non-authenticated vector tile basemaps. ↩ ↩2
-
Authenticated layers for Power Pages/Portal are required to use one of the following:
-
Static Token
-
Additional Parameter with only token parameter
-
Layer security as outlined in Configuring secure layers for portal

Must be used as an indexed MapServer layer to function on Portal. Authenticated layers for Power Pages/Portal are required to use one of the following:
-
Static Token
-
Additional Parameter with only token parameter
-
Layer security as outlined in Configuring secure layers for portal
-
-
Only available if using indexed MapServer layer ↩
-
XYZ cached tile server struggles to be utilised if implemented under complex multi-stage security layers such as proxies or iPaaS ↩
-
Only available with WFS layers ↩
-
WFS and WMTS will display standard blue symbology in the legend ↩
-
Only username/password and key/value pair authentication is available ↩
-
Only available with WFS layers ↩
-
Attribute Popup for data source layers looks similar to the infobox but is not configurable and will return an
Add to Routeaction and will have a clickable title to open the record in a modal. ↩ -
File layers can be configured to be used as offline basemaps, for more information please refer to Offline Capability ↩
