Arcpy passed map parameter not working

B_Brooks

Hello, I'm having some struggles with my script. In my model, I set the first parameter to be the map to convert.

import arcpy

map1 = arcpy.GetParameter(0)

arcpy.AddMessage(map1.name)

 

And I get the error: AttributeError: ValueObject: Get attribute name does not exist

 

The documentation for the map class says that "name" is a property, so why isn't it working?

Here is the solution:

import arcpy

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("CURRENT")

mapName = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0)

map1 = aprx.listMaps(mapName)[0]

arcpy.AddMessage(map1.name)
