Python arcpy.da.InsertCursor how to create a newRow()

JoseSanchez

Hello everyone

I am converting a arcpy.InsertCursor  in arcpy.da.InsertCursor

How does this line works in arcpy.da.InsertCursor

  row = rows.newRow()

# Create insert cursor for table

rows = arcpy.InsertCursor("c:/base/data.gdb/roads_lut")

# Create 25 new rows. Set the initial row ID and distance values

for x in range(1, 26):

    row = rows.newRow()

    row.setValue("rowid", x)

    row.setValue("distance", 100)

    rows.insertRow(row)

You don't, you pass the values as a list/tuple directly to the insertRow method - it's in the help...

Methods

insertRow (row)

Parameter	Explanation	Data Type
row [row,...]	A list or tuple of values. The order of values must be in the same order as specified when creating the cursor. When updating fields, if the incoming values match the type of field, the values will be cast as necessary. For example, a value of 1.0 to a string field will be added as "1.0", and a value of "25" added to a float field will be added as 25.0.	tuple
