Sobrescribir el Servicio de Entidades de ArcGIS Online usando Proyecto de ArcGIS Pro

jskinner

Anteriormente, escribí un documento sobre cómo sobrescribir un servicio de entidades de ArcGIS Online haciendo referencia a una clase de entidad y usando un método de truncar/agregar. Recibí muchos comentarios sobre este documento, con algunos usuarios encontrando limitaciones como que los attachments no son compatibles, y la actualización de servicios que contienen múltiples capas. Esta solución está destinada a abordar estas limitaciones. A continuación hay un script para sobrescribir un servicio de entidades de ArcGIS Online haciendo referencia a un proyecto de ArcGIS Pro, y un video sobre cómo usar el script. Por favor, comenten abajo si hay algún problema o pregunta.<\/P>

One more post here to close the loop - The bug for this is indeed BUG-000115592 and it's closed as a Known Limitation. The enhancement request is ENH-000179977 "Allow overwriting a hosted feature layer in ArcGIS Online when a joined view is present or a view with an area of interest is defined". It's In Review. And I'm hoping the documentation will be corrected to provide clarification on the known limitation. But most of all I hope with some Kudos on that Idea, Esri can implement this ability. Thanks.

@JakeSkinner You're welcome. It's not documented well anywhere. I'm waiting on more info from Tech support. I also found BUG-000115592 and Idea: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-ideas/allow-overwriting-a-hosted-feature-layer-in-arcgis/idi-p/1672183 Give it a Kudo please, everyone!

jskinner

Thanks @AndreaB_ for reporting this back on the thread. I was not aware of this limitation.

Hi @JakeSkinner ,

Thank you for testing it out. I just did some testing also with Pro 3.6.1. The issue is: the feature layer has a View Layer created with an Area of Interest defined within it.

When I create my View Layer in AGO:

This blocks overwriting of the feature layer. 🛑

Esri tech support has provided some links:

Expected Behavior: Overwriting a hosted feature layer with a related view layer (including AOI-defined view layers) is currently a limitation in ArcGIS Online. This is documented in the following support article: Error: ArcGIS Pro ERROR Code 400, Unable to Delete Item
Community Discussion: Similar behavior is discussed in the Esri Community: Unable to overwrite a web layer – Error 400 "Joined View" layers will cause this error, as well as any view layers with Areas of Interest defined within them.
Current Bug: There is a bug in ArcGIS Online for this limitation: BUG-000172493.
Additional Documentation:

Attempting to overwrite feature layer with related... - Esri Community

I am VERY surprised this is expected behavior. I would expect this to be a bug and functionality that needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

@AndreaB_ I could not reproduce this using Pro 3.6.1. Could you publish another service, create a view, and test the script with the new service? This will determine if it's an issue with the script/API, or with the service.

Hi @JakeSkinner ,

It looks like I spoke too soon about the script working. Even though the date shows updated in AGO my data isn't updated. I do have a View Layer created on this hosted feature layer. Do you think that's the problem? Here is what I get if I run the .py code in IDLE:

Python 3.11.11 (main, Mar 3 2025, 15:29:37) [MSC v.1938 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.

Hi @JakeSkinner ,

The .py seems to run in Windows task scheduler because the item detail page in AGO says "item updated" with today's date. But the Last Run result in Windows Task Scheduler says 0x1.

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi @JakeSkinner ,

Sorry for the confusion - I edited my post from last week. Your script is working great. I'm using ArcGIS Pro 3.5.5.

The bug, BUG-000171689, comes from ArcGIS Online and Esri tech support tells me the defect is currently under review with the development team.

But I'm using your script as a workaround to avoid that bug. Without your script I would be "cooked", as the kids say. 😊

Thank you!!

jskinner

Hi @AndreaB_, I could not reproduce this. What version of ArcGIS Pro are you running? I tested with ArcGIS Pro 3.6.1, which is version 2.4.2 of the arcgis module.

Hi @JakeSkinner,

I am running into this AGO bug, BUG-000171689, https://support.esri.com/en-us/bug/after-truncating-the-feature-layer-the-visibility-scale-bug-000171689 "After truncating the feature layer, the visibility scale range of feature layer has been unexpectedly reset at the REST endpoint" when I run an ArcGIS Pro model that truncates and appends my hosted feature layer in AGO. So I thought I could use your script as a work around. Your script is great - but it still resets the visibility scale range for the feature layers in AGO.

visibility scale orig before overwrite.JPG visibility scale after overwrite script.JPG

If I do a manual Overwrite Feature Layer using ArcGIS Pro - it keeps the visibility scale range for my layers. But I need to run this as a script nightly.

Are you able to add this to your code to keep the visibility range on the layers?

I'm not sure how else to work around this at this point.

***Edit - And.....nevermind. Your script works as a perfect work around and it does maintain the visibility range. I had unknowingly run the Model after your script so I had bad results.

Thank you!

@JakeSkinner

Since I have last integrated this app into my update workflows, I have done a tremendous amount of development on our AGOL platform. The main dataset is maintained and edited on ArcGIS Pro from our internal server and updated to AGOL for usage in Field Maps, Survey123 and Workforce.

I have started including attachments to feature classes and related GDB tables with relationship classes.

One of the issues I have recently found is when I run the script and it updates a Hosted Feature Layer on AGOL (Feature classes, tables, relationships, etc), the data appears to be updated when I open the data dialog in My Content. However, when I open the map in Map View/Field Maps, the related tables are not reflecting the updates from the same Hosted Feature Layer. This is all from the python script.

When I run the tool in ArcGIS Pro to overwrite the hosted feature layer, the related tables in the Map Viewer do infact reflect the updated changes.

Any thoughts on the script you provided or something I am overlooking?

SenadHodzicNR

@JakeSkinner So reading through the script, no matter what you still need to disable sync to update the feature service? Has anyone tested to see if their Offline Map Areas are preserved after this script is run?

haksinguiliam

This is fantastic! 🙏

One suggestion to the recording, which by the way, did an excellent job of listing possible changes user like me would potentially make, is having a couple view layer created. I would assume using the script wouldn't disconnect view layer or receive any failed update error, but it would be comforting to see in the video.

Tharu20B

Wow!!

I learned lot of things from this. Thank you.

tomshewring

@JakeSkinner thats sorted it. Thanks.
Although we had deployed the Local Intranet change to all users, it had not been deployed on the server running the Overwrite (Portal) Feature Service script. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.

jskinner

@TomShewring this should not occur if you're running command prompt as a named user in Portal, and you have Portal's URL added to the Local Intranet (i.e. Start > Internet Options > Security tab > Local Intranet > Sites > Advanced > specify the portal URL (minus the web adaptor) > Add):

tomshewring

Hi @JakeSkinner , changing to these settings (and using the Portal WebAdaptor address) -
when I run the script from the command line I get a security challenge

So I could not run this as a scheduled task on the Windows server

jskinner

@TomShewring try removing the username/password variables from the following lines:

These should not be needed if you Windows Authentication is enabled. It will use the window's account that's signed into the server.

tomshewring

@JakeSkinner
1. Yes Windows Authentication is enabled on Portal WebAdaptor
2. Enterprise (Portal / Federated Server / Datastore) version 11.3
3. I have tried the script with

(i) ArcGISPro 3.3.1 -

and

(ii) ArcGISPro 3.1.4

jskinner

@TomShewring

Do you have Windows Authentication enabled on Portal's web adaptor?
What version of Enterprise?
What version of the arcgis api for python?

tomshewring

@JakeSkinner , thanks - moving the 'Clear scratch directory' section to the beginning of the script, above the section that connects to AGOL/Portal - this works.
One further thing I don't understand is - I have to use the <portalurl>:7443/arcgis address. If I use the WebAdaptor address I get errors such as these (even though I am using the same username and password in each scenario) -

Do you know why this is?

jskinner

@TomShewring I've seen this error occur sporadically in some implementations (mine included), and I'm unable to find a cause. To workaround the issue, I recommend moving the Clear scratch directory section to the beginning of the script. For example, move this section of code above the section that connects to AGOL/Portal.

tomshewring

Hi @JakeSkinner , a hosted feature service.
I have got the 'Update service with previous properties' working - I had to use the siteadmin (default Administrator) account when connecting to Enterprise (Portal).
I now have a error in the 'Clearing scratch directory' section. I do not have ArcGISPro open (I am running this script from the command line not from within ArcGISPro) - so I do not know what application could be locking the WebUpdate.sd?

@TomShewring are you attempting to update a hosted feature service, or a referenced service?

I am running this script with an internal Enterprise (Portal) with IWA.

The script is working for me up until 'Update service with previous properties'

@cog_GIS_Admin here is helpful document on how use Windows Task Scheduler with python scripts:

https://community.esri.com/t5/python-documents/schedule-a-python-script-using-windows-task/ta-p/915861

cog_GIS_Admin

Thanks Jake, that was the issue. Now working on getting it to auto run with the server task scheduler.

jskinner

@cog_GIS_Admin check the casing of your username, this is case sensitive. For example, if your AGOL login is cog_GIS_Admin, and you specify cog_gis_admin, it will not authenticate.....even though cog_gis_admin will work in a web browser.

My post keeps getting marked as spam, not sure why. I'll try again. This script is just what I was looking for, but I am getting an error trying to log into AGOL.
