WFS - Get Features

Reference

Service:: Maps Creator

API Version:: 2.0

Use to get a detailed list of features of a collection.

The Get Features API is an HTTP GET request that returns a detailed list of features in the specified collection.

The WFS API follows the Open Geospatial Consortium API standard for Features to query Datasets.

A dataset consists of multiple feature collections. A feature collection is a collection of features of a similar type, based on a common schema.

Submit Get Features Request

GET https://{geography}.atlas.microsoft.com/wfs/datasets/{datasetId}/collections/{collectionId}/items?api-version=2.0

With optional parameters:

GET https://{geography}.atlas.microsoft.com/wfs/datasets/{datasetId}/collections/{collectionId}/items?api-version=2.0&limit={limit}&bbox={bbox}&filter={filter}

URI Parameters

Name	In	Required	Type	Description
collectionId	path	True	string	Identifier (name) of a specific collection
datasetId	path	True	string	The identifier for the dataset to query from.
geography	path	True	string	This parameter specifies where the Azure Maps Creator resource is located. Valid values are us and eu.
api-version	query	True	string	Version number of Azure Maps API.
bbox	query		number[]	Only features that have a geometry that intersects the supplied bounding box are selected. Lower left corner, coordinate axis 1 * Lower left corner, coordinate axis 2 * Upper right corner, coordinate axis 1 * Upper right corner, coordinate axis 2 The coordinate reference system of the values is WGS84 longitude/latitude (http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84) unless a different coordinate reference system is specified in the parameter `bbox-crs`. For WGS84 longitude/latitude the values are in most cases the sequence of minimum longitude, minimum latitude, maximum longitude and maximum latitude. However, in cases where the box spans the antimeridian the first value (west-most box edge) is larger than the third value (east-most box edge).
filter	query		string	Filter expression to search for features with specific property values in a given collection. Only feature properties of scalar type and equals operator are supported. This is a special parameter where the parameter name is a case sensitive property name. The scheme for this parameter is {property name}={property value}. Unless "filter" is one of the property names in the collection, "filter" should not be used as a parameter name. To search for features with "name" property value "21N13", use "name=21N13". Multiple filters are supported and should be represented as multiple query parameters. E.g., =&= String values are case sensitive.
limit	query		integer	The optional limit parameter limits the number of features that are presented in the response document. Only features that are on the first level of the collection in the response document are counted. Nested objects contained within the explicitly requested features shall not be counted. Minimum = 1 * Maximum = 500 * Default = 10

Request Header

Name	Required	Type	Description
x-ms-client-id		string	Specifies which account is intended for usage in conjunction with the Microsoft Entra ID security model. It represents a unique ID for the Azure Maps account and can be retrieved from the Azure Maps management plane Account API. To use Microsoft Entra ID security in Azure Maps see the following articles for guidance.

Responses

Name	Type	Description

Other Status Codes	ErrorResponse	An unexpected error occurred.

Security

AADToken

These are the Microsoft Entra OAuth 2.0 Flows. When paired with Azure role-based access control it can be used to control access to Azure Maps REST APIs. Azure role-based access controls are used to designate access to one or more Azure Maps resource account or sub-resources. Any user, group, or service principal can be granted access via a built-in role or a custom role composed of one or more permissions to Azure Maps REST APIs.

To implement scenarios, we recommend viewing authentication concepts. In summary, this security definition provides a solution for modeling application(s) via objects capable of access control on specific APIs and scopes.

Notes

This security definition requires the use of the x-ms-client-id header to indicate which Azure Maps resource the application is requesting access to. This can be acquired from the Maps management API.

The Authorization URL is specific to the Azure public cloud instance. Sovereign clouds have unique Authorization URLs and Microsoft Entra ID configurations. * The Azure role-based access control is configured from the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs. * Usage of the Azure Maps Web SDK allows for configuration based setup of an application for multiple use cases.

For more information on Microsoft identity platform, see Microsoft identity platform overview.

Type: oauth2
Flow: implicit
Authorization URL: https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize

subscription-key

This is a shared key that is provisioned when you Create an Azure Maps account in the Azure portal or using PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST API.

With this key, any application can access all REST API. In other words, this key can be used as a master key in the account that they are issued in.

For publicly exposed applications, our recommendation is to use the confidential client applications approach to access Azure Maps REST APIs so your key can be securely stored.

Type: apiKey
In: query

SAS Token

This is a shared access signature token is created from the List SAS operation on the Azure Maps resource through the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs.

With this token, any application is authorized to access with Azure role-based access controls and fine-grain control to the expiration, rate, and region(s) of use for the particular token. In other words, the SAS Token can be used to allow applications to control access in a more secured way than the shared key.

For publicly exposed applications, our recommendation is to configure a specific list of allowed origins on the Map account resource to limit rendering abuse and regularly renew the SAS Token.
