note: |
  Rayonier publishes no authentication page and no developer documentation of any kind. What is
  recorded here was read out of the server's own discovery documents and confirmed by calling
  the surface anonymously. The headline for an agent: every service in the Public and Hosted
  folders (45 services, 102 layers) answers metadata and /query calls with NO credential. The
  Utilities folder is the one place a token is demanded — it returned the ArcGIS error envelope
  {"error":{"code":499,"message":"Token Required"}}.

  The server itself runs token-based security (authInfo.isTokenBasedSecurity = true, tokens
  minted at the portal's generateToken endpoint) and the portal supports OAuth 2.0 and SAML
  (supportsOAuth = true, samlEnabled = true, disableSignup = true). Those are the credentials
  Rayonier staff use to reach non-public items; the sign-in page redirects to
  /portal/sharing/oauth2/authorize with client_id=arcgisonline. Self-signup is disabled, so
  there is no path for an outside developer to obtain a token — the public surface is the
  whole public surface.

  No write was attempted. Nine services ADVERTISE Create/Update/Delete in their capabilities
  string (see conventions/); whether an anonymous caller can exercise them was deliberately not
  tested.

    evidence: >-
      All 45 services in Public/ and Hosted/ returned their service document (HTTP 200) with no
      credential on 2026-09-17, and
      Public/Rayonier_FEE_Ownership_Public/FeatureServer/0/query?where=1%3D1&returnCountOnly=true
      returned {"count":6216} anonymously.

    surface: ArcGIS Server SOAP (gis.rayonier.com/arcgis/services)
    sources: [wsdl/rayonier-fee-ownership-mapserver.wsdl]
    evidence: >-
      ?wsdl returned the 290 KB MapServer contract (HTTP 200, text/xml) with no credential on
      three Public/ services.

    tokenUrl: https://gis.rayonier.com/portal/sharing/rest/generateToken
    evidence: >-
      /arcgis/rest/info reports authInfo.isTokenBasedSecurity true and names the token service;
      /arcgis/rest/services/Utilities?f=json answered {"error":{"code":499,"message":"Token
      Required"}}. Tokens are issued only to portal accounts; signup is disabled.

      portals/self reports supportsOAuth true and samlEnabled true; /portal/sharing/login 302s
      to /portal/sharing/oauth2/authorize?client_id=arcgisonline&response_type=code. No
      RFC 8414 /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server document is served (404), and no scope
      list is published, so scopes: is empty rather than guessed. Staff-only: disableSignup is
      true.
