Editing service information

You can edit any service that you have created. You can also edit some map services hosted by ArcWeb. (When you edit ArcWeb map services, the system makes a copy of the service for you to customize.)

If you have permissions to edit a service, an Edit icon appears next to the service in the Content Library. If you do not have permissions, contact the owner listed on the Summary page to make changes.

To edit a service

From the Build tab menu, click Browse & Edit Content.
In the Content Library filter boxes, select All Libraries > Services, then click View Results.
Click the Edit icon for the service you want to edit.

A page appears that lists the features you can change. Different types of services have different properties to edit.

For a map service, you can add, rearrange, and delete layers as well as change the scale, styles, and map boundary (the extent).
For a spatial query service, you can edit the fields returned, search filter (WHERE clause), geographic constraint, default number of records returned, and distance units.

Click the appropriate Edit button and make changes.
To change metadata, click the Info tab and click Edit Info. Save your changes when done.
