Creating a map service for offline sync

Not all map services are suitable for offline sync. To be synced offline, a service must meet these requirements:

  • It must use an enterprise database (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or Oracle).
  • It must have versioning enabled.
  • It must have a UUID field.
  • The Sync check box must be selected.

To create a map service that can be synced offline, you must first create a dataset in ArcCatalog. The next step is to publish the map in ArcMap.
