Pro arcpy - setting time property on layer or feature class

[AngusHooper1]

How can I set the time properties for a feature class or a layer via arcpy? For example, it appears that the layerTime classes are not available in Pro when compared to ArcMap?

A lot is different in on the mapping side

But for sure Joshua Bixby‌ says no in this thread

Does Pro Py have a method to access the time property in a time-enabled layer? 

and I can't find one either or a replacement in CIM

Python CIM access—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation 

But, on a lark, have you just tried replacing 'mapping' with 'mp' ?  I don't have a time-enable layer to check, perhaps it is just missing from the help docs

arcpy.mapping.Layer(r'C:\Project\Data\Time\TemperatureWithTime.lyr')

arcpy.mp.Layer(r'C:\Project\Data\Time\TemperatureWithTime.lyr')

Angus, have you ever found a solution to this problem?

[TracyThorleifson]

Angus Hooper‌, Aleksandra Zietara‌, layer time properties are accessible via the CIM and embedded in the feature table (CIMFeatureTable) properties. See:

• CIMTimeTableDefinition
• CIMTimeDataDefinition
• CIMTimeDisplayDefinition
• CIMTimeDimensionDefinition

I'm not sure how long those items have been exposed in the CIM, but it's been at least since 2.5. Hope that helps! 🙂
