Attributes

NameOccTypeDescriptionNotes
handle [0..1]xsd:string The handle attribute allows a client application to assign a client-generated request identifier to an Insert action. The handle is included to facilitate error reporting. If an Update action in a Transaction request fails, then a WFS may include the handle in an exception report to localize the error. If no handle is included of the offending Insert element then a WFS may employee other means of localizing the error (e.g. line number).
typeName [1..1]xsd:QName The value of the typeName attribute is the name of the feature type to be updated. The name specified must be a valid type that belongs to the feature content as defined by the GML Application Schema.
inputFormat [0..1]xsd:string This inputFormat attribute is used to indicate the format used to encode a feature instance in an Insert element. The default value of 'text/xml; subtype=gml/3.1.1' is used to indicate that feature encoding is GML3. Another example might be 'text/xml; subtype=gml/2.1.2' indicating that the feature us encoded in GML2. A WFS must declare in the capabilities document, using a Parameter element, which version of GML it supports. Default value is "x-application/gml:3".
