The version parameter refers to which version of WMS is being requested. The service parameter tells the WMS server that a WMS request is forthcoming. There are three parameters being passed to the WMS server, service=wms, version=1.1.1, and request=GetCapabilities. When specified, will override the global WMS setting or layer / group setting for the same behaviour. When false, the Root element will be included only if there are multiple top level layers, if there is only one, it will be the root layer itself. Request the capabilities document in a certain formatįlag to enable/disable the standard Root top level Layer element. Limits response to layers in a given namespace They are fully documented in the WMS vendor parameters section. GeoServer provides the following vendor-specific parameters The parameters for the GetCapabilities operation are: The GetCapabilities operation requests metadata about the operations, services, and data (“capabilities”) that are offered by a WMS server. Note that this format is disabled by default (See Global variables affecting WMS). See WMS vendor parameters to change the callback name. Return a JsonP in the form: paddingOutput(…jsonp…). It also works with the timeout vendor parameter.

Can be used with the WMS Configuration Limits to return a partial image even if the request is terminated for exceeding one of these limits. Returns everything that was rendered at the time the rendering process threw an exception. This is a GeoServer vendor parameter and only applicable for GetMap requests. The supported values for exceptions are:ĮXCEPTIONS=application/_inimageĮXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.gs.wms_partial Formats in which WMS can report exceptions.
