Years ago I used a similar approach as yours to have Mapserver read raster tiles. The trick was to reference a gdal "service description" xml fiile in Mapserver's DATA object in the map file. Perhaps there is a way to use the MVT driver's metadata.json file to specify the parameters GDAL needs to access the data.

I'm trying to add an MVT layer to my Mapfile, but it doesn't work and I ran out of ideas. Some info about the layer I'm trying to add: https://support.regrid.com/articles/using-the-tileserver/ This is my LAYER definition in my Mapfile (based on the guidance of https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/mvt.html and https://mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html) LAYER NAME "Parcel" TYPE POLYGON CONNECTIONTYPE OGR CONNECTION "MVT:https://tiles.regrid.com/api/v1/parcels/{z}"; DATA "parcels" STATUS ON END By debugging the layer I get the following logs: [Thu Dec 30 12:17:42 2021].906000 msOGRFileOpen(MVT:https://tiles.regrid.com/api/v1/parcels/{z})...

I'm expecting this to work because the following ogrinfo command runs without any issues: ogrinfo "MVT:https://tiles.regrid.com/api/v1/parcels/14/3579/6522.mvt"; parcels I couldn't find a single example online about adding an MVT layer to a Mapfile. Is there anyone who could prompt me in the right direction or just have a working example?
