Open a layer in ArcGIS Desktop from Geocortex

In ArcGIS portal, you can open a layer content in ArcGIS Desktop by clicking ". . ." and selecting "Open in ArcGIS Desktop".

I noticed that ArcGIS portal generates a json file "item.pitem" which can be opened in ArcGIS desktop.

 

Is there a way to do the same thing from Geocortex?

  Hi,

   

  No, this isn't something supported in Geocortex Essentials or the HTML5 Viewer.

   

  Thanks,

  Thanks Mike for confirming that it isn't supported.  Can you recommend any workaround such as workflow or custom coding?

   

  Based on my investigation, the content of the json file (.pitem) looks something like this.

   

  { "title":"MyMapService", "url":"https://gishub.mycompany.com/ags/rest/services/MyMapService/MyMapService/MapServer" }

   

  If I can figure these things out in HTML Viewer, I should have a workaround.  Here are my questions.

   

  1. I need a way to execute a command from a selected map service/layer in the Layers tab.

   

  2. The url is coming from the ConnectionString of the Map Service in Essential Manager when we create a map service.  Is there a way I can get that ConnectionString from Workflow or GVH module?

   

  3. Assumming we can do #1 and #2, is there an easy way to execute(or create) a command that will export the json content into a file?

   

  Thanks,

   

  Tony
