Restrictions for Maps

Specifying Restrictions for Maps, you can implement access rights for one or multiple map services.

 

First of all you have to select the group where restrictions are to be configured.

 

Create group restrictions for maps - step 1 select group

Create group restrictions for maps - step 1 select group

 

In the next step is to select the map service you want to create a restriction for.

 

Create group restrictions for maps - step 2 select maps

Create group restrictions for maps - step 2 select maps

 

Now you can either configure a partial restriction by assigning an attributive filter or fully restrict access to the map service with a tick at the checkbox "Restrict Access". When assigning a filter either select an existing one or create a new one from scratch.

In order to receive an correct restriction for maps with a configured attributive filter, consider the following points:

•Every feature class in all layers of the map (i.e. data frame) should possess an identical field of identical type that serves the filter

•Any feature layer that does not possess the field to be filtered on cannot be displayed since the filter condition cannot be complied with

•The attributive filter operates restrictively, i.e. if no attributive filter is defined there will not be a restriction

•The attributive filter will only work for feature layers. All other types of layers (e.g. group layers, annotation feature class layers, raster catalog layers, layers with ArcMap Join, etc...) will not be taken into consideration

•Only = (EQUALS) operator is supported for attributive filter conditions for maps

•The attributive filter can be either parametrized or static. Be aware that users are not allowed to have multiple group memberships!

•Examples:

Parametrized: CLIENT_ID = <%client%>; the attributive filter will use the client ID parameter, configured at Groups, as attributive filter.
Static: <FILTER_FIELD> = filter_value; the attributive filter may be static as well
