Using ArcGIS Tile service in QGIS?

Question

Ive tried several methods but nothing seems to work. As you can see by clicking the link, there are json, api and tile urls.

There must be a way to make this service useful?

Welcome to GIS SE. It would be really great if you could expand on what other methods you've tried. — Knightshound, Sep 21 '16 at 15:28
I've tried TileLayer, but it doesnt seem to work. Also tried several methods to get a WMS out of it. But thusfar no result. Also tried using the json script but I dont have the knowlegde to import that to a good file. — Douwe Vermeer, Sep 22 '16 at 06:42
ArcGIS map- and featureservices are available out of the box since 2.16. A plugin existed earlier but not sure from what version? Maybe 2.10? — nielsgerrits, Sep 23 '16 at 19:15

@buddiebubba the plugin seems to work only with WFS, it does not like the tiled service. — AndreJ, Sep 25 '16 at 17:24

It works for me this way:

Layer -> Add Layer -> Add ARCGIS MapServer Layer

Click on New

Provide a name, like Dijkenkaart

For URL, Paste the URL you gave in your question.

Then Click on Connect and Add, and you should see the server data:

I added some OpenStreetMap background for reference.

I have not tested older versions. Any reason to stuck to 2.8? On Windows, you can install multiple standalone versions in parallel. – AndreJ Sep 24 '16 at 05:27
Thanks alot for your effort. Thing is, I'm using version 2.8. Is this a feature thats available in newer versions? – Douwe Vermeer Sep 27 '16 at 06:59
Doenst seem to be available at 2.8, will try to use newer versions. – Douwe Vermeer Sep 27 '16 at 07:13
QGIS 2.16 gives me an error with the ssl certificate. How did you manage to bypass it? @AndreJ – Douwe Vermeer Sep 27 '16 at 08:15
The solution you gave is working. Because I'm working on some sort of server the ssl gave problems. Managed to resolve this using another external server. Thanks! – Douwe Vermeer Sep 27 '16 at 11:51
