Layer ID |
Layer ID used to reference the WebOffice Layer configuration to the map layer. Note: The Layer ID is built using the name of the top level layer group (ArcMap table of content) plus the name of the layer (ArcMap table of content). E.g. For top level layer group ‘Base Data’ and Layer ‘Airports’ the Layer ID is: ‘Base Data//Airports’ ![]() Example for how the Layer ID is built. |
