Python Script to Auto update Web Map from Arc Pro project

MatthewAllen

I would like to create a python Script to automatically update my web map from my ArcPro project.

I have a ArcPro project that I manually update the web map right now.

I also used experience builder to create a user-friendly web map that uses the data from my published web map.

I have attached my first try at a script, but it doesn't work. Any help on how to fix the script would be appreciated.

1st Script: Double check you are signed in and correct portal connection

arcpy.server.UploadServiceDefinition(sd, portal_url)

print(arcpy.GetActivePortalURL())

Change raise Exception(f"Map '{map_name}' not found.")

to

sddraft = os.path.join(sharing_draft_folder, f"{service_name}.sddraft")
sd = os.path.join(sharing_draft_folder, f"{service_name}.sd")

print(f"{service_name} published successfully!")

 

And for the Exception try,

except Exception:
print("Publishing failed.")
print(arcpy.GetMessages(0))
print(arcpy.GetMessages(1))
print(arcpy.GetMessages(2))
raise

 

2nd script:

You are missing your drive letter, PROJECT = r"\GISdata\ArcGISPro_Projects\SamplePublishArcPly.aprx", something like, PROJECT = r"C:\GISdata\ArcGISPro_Projects\SamplePublishArcPly.aprx"

 

before C:\GIS\Logs, add 

os.makedirs(r"C:\GIS\Logs", exist_ok=True)
os.makedirs(OUTPUT_FOLDER, exist_ok=True)
