How to connect a argis, sde version through stand alone python script. SDE.Mapping is child version of SDE.Default and I want to make child version of SDE.Mapping . I am using direct sde services, sde:oracle11g:dbname

I need to know command of python to connect to a sde version.

Jake,

I am having a similar issue. I am trying to connect to a version other than DEFAULT by providing version parameter. But it is always connecting to DEFAULT version. Could you please provide any input on this? Here is the code i used

arcpy.CreateDatabaseConnection_management(out_folder_path="Database Connections",

                                          out_name="creaconn5.sde",

                                           database_platform="ORACLE",

                                           instance="srv1/testgis",

                                          account_authentication="DATABASE_AUTH",

                                          username="sde",

                                          password="xyz",

                                          save_user_pass="SAVE_USERNAME",

                                          version_type="TRANSACTIONAL",

                                          version="TEST.VERSION1")

In the immediate window right pane it shows as

Executing: CreateDatabaseConnection "Database Connections" creaconn5.sde ORACLE srv1/testgis DATABASE_AUTH sde ***** SAVE_USERNAME # SDE TRANSACTIONAL # #

You can observe that, even though I specified version parameter, it took it as blank (#)

Could you help in identifying what went wrong?
