Bold: Attribute or child element is required. (m): Child element can be used multiple times.

Description:

Returns attribute data, feature geometry data, or both. Data is returned in a binary stream from the Feature Server or in ArcXML format from the Query Server.

Restrictions:

Used only with Feature, Query, or ArcMap Servers.

Notes:

See GET_FEATURES for request.
If outputmode in the request is binary, the response is a binary stream. If outputmode is xml or newxml, the response is in ArcXML. Outputmode should be set to "xml" or "newxml" for Image and ArcMap Image Services.
In ArcXML mode, feature geometry is returned only if the #shape# field is included in the request. The geometry can be returned in a compact or noncompact format also based on the request.
ENVELOPE is used two ways in a FEATURES response:
- As the extent for each feature returned.
- As the extent of all the features returned in the response.
For more details on using GET_FEATURES and FEATURES including additional examples, see Using GET_FEATURES and FEATURES.

Examples for FEATURES:

Example 1: When envelope and globalenvelope are both requested.
