Introduction

The ArcGIS Online REST API is one of the ArcGIS REST APIs which is also part of the Esri's Open Vision)).

In the ArcGIS REST API official documentation you will find everything about how to use ArcGIS Online APIs. There are hundreds of endpoints to do things like:

  • Manage items: databases, files, permissions, apps, ...
  • Manage an organization: members, groups, settings, ...
  • Consume data: Living Atlas, Open Data, ArcGIS user community, ...
  • Access public and free services: geometry engine, place search, ...
  • Authenticate: to access premium services, your private content, ...

You can access or manage any product built on top of the ArcGIS Online using it's API. For example: Living Atlas, ArcGIS Hub, ArcGIS Marketplace, ...

Getting started

If you want to jump directly to the code you can do find some tutorials in the ArcGIS Dev Labs.

Training

Documentation

Warning: some products like the Living Atlas, ArcGIS Hub, ArcGIS Marketplace, etc haven't got (yet) any specific documentation about their APIs, so you might need to do some reverse engineering

Videos

We have created a ArcGIS REST API Youtube playlist that we think it might be worth to you to save (how to save a Youtube Playlist).

On video.esri.com and Esri Events you will find many technical talks. Or check Esri Geodev channel for short videos.
