Programmatically pause/resume collaboration syncs using the arcgis api

dcoley

Hello - does anyone know if there is anyway to pause / resume collaboration syncs using the arcgis api? Maybe somewhere in the arcgis.gis.admin module? From the rest api here:

https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/users-groups-and-items/pause/

I've been trying to implement this:

POST /sharing/rest/portals/0123456789ABCDEF/collaborations/3e9d1694351a4b5badef66c7599fced5/workspaces/c3c831f1274a4f228ecd87f1953c6f21/schedule/pause HTTP/1.1
Host: org.arcgis.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: []

f=pjson

but with no success.

Any ideas?

>>> from arcgis.gis import GIS
>>> from arcgis.gis.admin import Collaboration
>>> gis = GIS('https://your.portalsite.here/portal/')
>>> cm = gis.admin.collaborations
>>> c = Collaboration(cm, 'yourCollaborationIDhere')
>>> c.pause_schedule('yourWorkspaceIDhere')

The python code would look something like this

The command to resume is resume_schedule

Ok @valenj88 - here's how I set this up to run in the python IDLE:

try:
    myCollabs = gis.admin.collaborations.list()
    for myCollab in myCollabs:
        #print (myCollab.name + ' - ' + myCollab.id + ' - ' + myCollab.workspaces)
        if (myCollab.name == 'Sarasota County GIS Cadastral'):
            wss = myCollab.workspaces
            for ws in wss:
                for key, value in ws.items(): #need to set up key value pair because workspaces property is a dictionary of items
                    if key == 'id':
                        print (value)
                        myCollab.pause_schedule(value)
except Exception:
    # If an error occurred, print line number and error message
    import traceback, sys
    tb = sys.exc_info()[2]
    e = sys.exc_info()[1]
    print(e.args[0])
    print ("Line %i" % tb.tb_lineno)
    message = message + "\n" + "Line %i" % tb.tb_lineno
    message = message + "\n" + str(e)

Then I'll just set up a try block for each collab I want to pause or resume . . .

It may now. I had not checked since maybe 10.9.1 - but it didn't then. Could be the way I was doing my collaborations... hosted in my portal (guest), sent to our agol by reference (host)

No worries. Also if the data is marked "authoritative" (with the green check) in portal, it *should* carry over to AGOL.

Oh hey that's it @valenj88 - thanks for this! I've got like 13 distributed collaborations where I update data each weekend, but until this latest release of the api I could not find anything on pause / resume.

The problem has been that each time a collaboration syncs on schedule, it un-authorizes each collaboration feature layers. And so each day I was having to run an re-authorization script so our layers would re-acquire that green 'authorized' icon . . .

And thanks for reaching out earlier
