Release Notes 1.9

What’s New

ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2 and 11.3 support

This version now supports ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2 and 11.3.

Extended functionality with grant-all policies

Users with grant-all policies (access to all layers and no restrictions applied) will no longer experience functional limitations, since their access is no longer inspected by security.manager NEXT.

Validation of policies

When using the command line interface (CLI), policies are vaildated against the service metadata. Warnings will occur for instance when a policy refers to non-existing layers or fields.

Update Notes

If you skip several versions during the update, please also follow all update notes of the intervening versions.

Deprecation of ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1

Please note that ArcGIS Enterprise versions up to 10.8.1 are no longer supported.

Deprecation of Node.js 18 and npm 9

Please use Node.js 20 and npm 10 for the npm-based installation of the CLI.

Warnings

OGC API Features

With ArcGIS 11.0 and 11.1, on services with activated security.manager NEXT, unauthorized layer information can be exposed via the OGC API Features endpoint. Please deactivate OGC API Features on those services.
