I worked it out and have uploaded my code here.  I hope it helps somebody.   import sys sys.path.insert(0, r'C:\myscripts\OverwriteFS') import os import OverwriteFS # Import ArcGIS Python API and make a connection to Portal from arcgis.gis import GIS gis = GIS(username="johndoe", password="johnspwd") # Get View item from Portal itemId = "84a62b29fff5477f814ac7db77fb223c" # ID for feature layer view parcelview = gis.content.get(itemId) # set up the relationship of the view to A and B feature service items (I only had to run this once and the relationships held) #relitems = ["6bbd1f51215f459796c8f026344e13a4","bf5680ef5e294d7t507810b3e448a735"] # related feature layers A & B versions.
