Workflow: Create and access vector tile services

Create and access vector tile services

You can also use tools such as the portal to publish vector tile layers from feature layers. If the feature layer contains styles, the styles will be exported and applied to the new vector tile layer. Vector tile layers and their styles are stored as tile layer items in the portal. Once in the portal, you can manage the layer properties and easily access the vector tile layers from applications.

Workflow

1. Create a feature layer, style it, and then publish a new vector tile service.
2. Display the vector tile service in an application.
