Clone AGOL portal content to new AGOL portal

ChaimSchwartz4

Hi,

Using this notebook example provided online, I cloned an existing AGOL portal to a new AGOL portal.

The only two changes I really did were: (1) for testing purposes I'm running it only on one user at the time and (2) I had to create a new user name for the new AGOL org., since I can't have the same user name in two different AGOL subscriptions.

At first glance it seemed to have worked, all groups, folders and contents were moved to the new account and are under the ownership of the new user, however I cant actually access any of the hosted feature services, maps or webapps or surveys - receiving a message that the "layer cannot be added to the map", or that I "do not have access to this resource". This is actually also reflected when running the following line on my new user, which results in an empty list (allthough, as mentioned, I can actually see all items on my new account, and under my new ownership...). 

user1<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>items<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

Based on these symptoms, can any body shed some light....?

Hi Chaim,

You should be able to use the clone_items method to deep clone an item and all of its dependencies. For example, if you cloned a webmap, it would clone the webmap and any layers it uses.

arcgis.gis module — arcgis 1.5.3 documentation 

example:

gis1 = GIS("https://arcgis.com", "username", "password")

gis2 = GIS("https://server.com/portal", "username", "password")

item = gis1.content.get("some-item-id")

cloned_items = gis2.content.clone_items([item])
