24078: Layer's data source is not supported: <value>

This ArcGIS 2.6 documentation has been archived and is no longer updated. Content and links may be outdated. See the latest documentation.

Not all data sources are supported by web layers, web maps, and web scenes. A layer in your map or scene uses an unsupported data source. The <value> parameter identifies the layer.

Solutions

Use one of the following solutions:

  • Replace the unsupported data source with a supported database feature class.
  • Do nothing. The unsupported layer will be excluded from the web layer, web map, or web scene.

More information

Unsupported layer types usually fall into one of the following categories:

  • Service layers—Although this warning can occur with any service layer, it most commonly occurs with a basemap layer when you share the contents of a map as a web layer. In this case, do nothing; the basemap layer will be excluded, and all other layers will be shared.
  • TIN layers—TIN layers are not supported as elevation surfaces in web scenes.
  • CAD layers—To share CAD layers, the source data must be converted to feature classes. For more information, see CAD data in ArcGIS Pro.
  • Revit layers—Revit layers are only supported for sharing as a web scene layer to ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7 or later.
  • Tile packages and vector tile packages—These packages cannot be shared as part of a web layer, web map, or web scene. Replace the package with the source data used to create the package.
  • Scene layer packages—All scene layer packages can be shared as part of a web scene to ArcGIS Online. Support for sharing to ArcGIS Enterprise depends on the version.
    • Integrated mesh, multipatch, and point scene layer packages are supported for sharing to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 or later.
    • Point cloud scene layer packages are supported for sharing to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1 or later.
    • Building scene layer packages are supported for sharing to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7 or later.
  • SQLite data—Data in an SQLite database must be converted to a file or enterprise geodatabase feature class before sharing.
  • Voxel layers—Voxel layers are not supported in a web scene.

It's not practical to provide a complete list of supported data sources because the list is long and must be qualified depending on the output web layer type and on your portal or server configuration. A general guideline is to convert unsupported data sources to feature classes using tools in the Conversion toolbox.
