Arcpy Pro importDocument

JaredPilbeam2

I'm working from the Python console in Pro 2.3 and when I importDocument it seems to work but nothing opens. The parameters call for the document and it's layout, so I tried that too. Is there another step that I'm missing?

<SPAN class="keyword token">import</SPAN> arcpy
p <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>mp<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>ArcGISProject<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'CURRENT'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN>
<SPAN class="comment token">#importDocument(document_path, {include_layout})</SPAN>
p<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>importDocument<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>r<SPAN class="string token">'path\to\MUNICIPAL_LIMITS_A.aprx'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍<SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

There was a similar question to mine here, but it's sort of dated:

"To follow up on my comment, the code you posted does work, but does not automatically open the newly imported map."

Jared, this one has tripped me up in the past as well! You'd certainly think the result would open automatically but that is not the case.

Instead, you'll go to Catalog > Project > Maps to locate the imported .aprx.
