Publish a Web tools

DamasoAvalos_Ruiz1

Hello,

 

I am writing to request technical assistance. I created a python script that needs to execute the following, in the indicated order:

 

1) generate some rasters,

2) add the rasters to a map

3) publish the map as a MAP_IMAGE to an ArcGIS Server federated with a Portal.

 

I published the python script to ArcGis Server as a Web Tool, so I can later use it from a web app as a REST Service.

The problem I am experiencing is: Once the webtool is created and I try to execute it as a rest service from the browser I get errors. Please see below for Code Version 1 and its errors and Code Version 2 and its errors;

Version 1

Code:

    # ## Version 1 - Using map.getWebLayerSharingDraft

    sharing_draft = _work_map.getWebLayerSharingDraft('FEDERATED_SERVER', 'MAP_IMAGE', service)

    sharing_draft.federatedServerUrl = str(svr_fed)

    sharing_draft.summary = _work_map.name

    sharing_draft.tags = _work_map.name

    sharing_draft.description = 'Create Rasters'

    sharing_draft.credits = 'Create Rasters'

    sharing_draft.useLimitations = 'My Use Limitations'

    sharing_draft.copyDataToServer = True

    sharing_draft.offline = False

    sharing_draft.overwriteExistingService = True

    # ## End Version 1

Error:

'Map' object has no attribute 'getWebLayerSharingDraft'

 

Version 2

Code:

    # ## Version 2 - Using arcpy.sharing.CreateSharingDraft

    sharing_draft = arcpy.sharing.CreateSharingDraft("STANDALONE_SERVER", "MAP_SERVICE", service, _work_map)

    sharing_draft.targetServer = svr_fed

    sharing_draft.summary = _work_map.name

    sharing_draft.tags = _work_map.name

    sharing_draft.description = 'Create Rasters'

    sharing_draft.credits = 'Create Rasters'

    sharing_draft.useLimitations = 'My Use Limitations'

    sharing_draft.copyDataToServer = True

    sharing_draft.offline = True

    sharing_draft.overwriteExistingService = True

    # ## End Version 2

Error:

module 'arcpy' has no attribute 'sharing'

 

 Both versions run perfectly in ArcGis Pro

ArcGIS version: Pro 2.3.0, Python version: 3.6.6

Python version on ArcGis Server: 2.7

My guess is (I had a similar experience with other modules from arcpy) that the modules are called slightly differently in Python 3 compared to Python 2.7. If you can, I would suggest to add the python 3 to your server. If it is a Linux, this document might help: Python 3 runtime for ArcGIS Server on Linux—ArcGIS Server Administration (Linux) | Documentation for ArcGIS Enterprise 

To test it you could run it in ArcMap (if you have that available) which uses 2.7

The arcpy.sharing module was introduced at ArcGIS Pro 2.2 to provide a better experience when sharing web layers over the previously existing function CreateWebLayerSDDraft. The original function is provided only for backward compatibility.

so I assume, this is a new module and not yet available in 2.7 which would explain the error for option 2.

For option 1 I know that the schema of the map project - map - layer is very different compared to mxd - dataframe - layer so this is also related to Python 2.7 vs 3 I'm afraid. 

I hope this helps.
