Example usage
Below is a sample ArcGIS Enterprise POST request for the register operation:
POST /webadaptor/sharing/rest/portals/0123456789ABCDEF/servers/register HTTP/1.1
Host: machine.domain.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: []
name=machine.domain.com:6443&url=https://machine.domain.com/webadaptor&isHosted=true&serverType=ArcGIS&adminUrl=https://machine.domain.com:6443/arcgis&f=pjsonDescription
You can optionally register (or federate) an ArcGIS Server site with your ArcGIS Enterprise organization. Federating a server provides the following benefits:
- The server and the portal share the same user store (that of the portal). This results in a convenient single sign-on experience.
- Any items you publish to the server are automatically shared on the portal.
- You can optionally allow the server to host tiled map services and feature services published by portal users.
After you register a server with your portal, you must invoke the Update Security Configuration operation on the ArcGIS Server site and configure the site's security store to take advantage of users and roles from the portal.
Note:
This operation is not supported with ArcGIS Online; This operation is only applicable to ArcGIS Enterprise.
