Return more than 1000 query results for ArcGIS Server clients from a Query Task

Summary

ArcGIS Server clients, such as ArcGIS Web APIs, can perform query operations to return specific information or records from a map service. The property specifies the number of records returned by the server to a client program through a specific query operation.

By default, the query result limitation from a Query Task in ArcGIS Server is set to 1000 results. The same limitation is also applicable for the service REST endpoint query operation. However, users can modify and increase the value of the parameter to return the number of desired query results.
