Properties
| Property | Details |
|---|---|
| blendMode | Blend modes are used to create various effects by blending colors of top and background layers. normal blend mode is the default.Valid values: average, color, color-burn, color-dodge, darken, destination-atop, destination-in, destination-out, destination-over, difference, exclusion, hard-light, hue, invert, lighten, lighter, luminosity, minus, multiply, normal, overlay, plus, reflect, saturation, screen, soft-light, source-atop, source-in, source-out, vivid-light, xor |
| customParameters | A sequence of custom parameters appended to the URL of all requests related to a layer. |
| effect | Effect provides various filter functions to achieve different visual effects similar to how image filters (photo apps) work. |
| id | A string containing the item ID of the service if it's registered on ArcGIS Online or your organization's portal. |
| isReference | This property is applicable if used as a baseMapLayer. A boolean value indicating whether or not the baseMapLayer draws on top (true) of other layers, including operationalLayers, or below (false). |
| itemId | Optional string containing the item ID of the service if it's registered on ArcGIS Online or your organization's portal. |
| layerType | String indicating the layer type. Valid value of this property VectorTileLayer |
| maxScale | A number representing the maximum scale at which the layer will be visible. The number is the scale's denominator. |
| minScale | A number representing the minimum scale at which the layer will be visible. The number is the scale's denominator. |
| opacity | The degree of transparency applied to the layer on the client side, where 0 is full transparency and 1 is no transparency. |
| styleUrl | A url to a JSON file containing the stylesheet information used to render the layer. You may also pass an object containing the stylesheet information identical to the JSON file. |
| title | A user-friendly string title for the layer that can be used in a table of contents. |
| type | Deprecated. User layerType instead. |
| visibility | Boolean property determining whether the layer is initially visible in the web map. |
| visibilityTimeExtent | Represents time extent that will control when a layer should be visible based on webmap's current time. Visibility time extent only affects the layer visibility and will not filter the data. |
