Hello - it appears that the Upload Service Definition tool is not honoring the '"groups" setting now at 2.3. This worked at 2.2.x: arcpy . UploadServiceDefinition_server ( 'C:/ArcProProjects/PortalUpdates/Environmental/' + lyr . name + '.sd' , 'My Hosted Services' , "" , "" , "" , "" , "" , "OVERRIDE_DEFINITION" , "SHARE_ONLINE" , "PUBLIC" , "SHARE_ORGANIZATION" , "Environmental Layers Group" ) I can get around it by using the api: portItem . share ( everyone = True , org = True , groups = "21afe6b205cf4ff99271b4fe25f3b2d7" ) Thanks, David

Thank you for reporting this issue. I'm able to reproduce the problem and have logged a bug internally also.

Tried everything with UploadServiceDefinition_server, the service definition makes it to the server anything involving sharing is ignore. My service definition is always availeble to me only.

Bug status has been updated to 'Implemented' at 2.4

I am only able to update one group ID at a time. Sending a comma separated list, as instructed in the 1.5.1 api documentation, will return an exception.

A bug was posted. It isn't showing up in the support search yet.

BUG-000120282; The in_groups parameter in UploadServiceDefinition_server does not update group sharing in the published feature service as expected

DavidColey

Thanks Susan for looking into it.

DavidColey

Sure. Other quirky things I run into: When using the .share method in the Item module of the api, I've never been able to get the "groups" argument/parameter to honor the group name, only the group ID. Maybe because group names are an array and group ID's aren't. Not sure.

In the sharing module of arcpy, I've never been able to add a comma separated list of tags if a tag is more than one word with spaces in it. Like 'Tree Inventory' has to read as 'TreeInventory' and so on.

I've had an unbelievably difficult time getting stable results from either arcpy or arcgis api for updating AGOL Items. It seems that every update breaks one or the other. It is surprising there isn't more activity on Geonet over this problem.

I've submitted two premium support cases for issues with UploadServiceDefinition_server. The most recent being the issue you describe with the in_groups property. Not a single bug has been filed, only enhancements related to documentation. It seems the Tier 1 staff is being incentivized to not pass actual development issues to the development staff.

Anyways, thanks for posting your workaround. This is more than I have gotten out of ESRI premium support.
