Portal - Publish CSV as Table (not FeatureLayer)

GregHorne

upload_file = "c:\data.csv"

file_properties = {'title': friendly_name,
   'tags': 'public, data, animal, welfare',
   'type': 'CSV'
}

item = gis.content.add(file_properties, upload_file)
misc = item.publish()

===

I want to publish it as a Table but item.publish() results in a FeatureLayer being published.

When I do this interactively through portal, there is an option Locate Features By: coordinates or none.

I am not finding where I can in Python set this to none.

Suggestions?

Hey Greg Horne‌,

If you look here you can see documentation on adding a csv and then publishing it as a feature layer:

Publishing SDs, Shapefiles and CSVs | ArcGIS for Developers 

If you use just this part it should just add to the portal and not publish a feature layer:

upload_file = "c:\data.csv"
 
file_properties = {'title': friendly_name,
    'tags': 'public, data, animal, welfare',
    'type': 'CSV'
}
 
item = gis.content.add(file_properties, upload_file)

This line here is the part that is publishing the csv as a feature layer.

misc = item.publish()

Thanks,

Ben
