Change a feature layer Url

MarkCederholm

Is it possible to change the Url of a FeatureLayer?  For example, changing

"https://oldserver/arcgis/rest/services/myfolder/mymapservice/MapServer/1"

to

"https://newserver/arcgis/rest/services/myfolder/mymapservice/MapServer/1"

When I try this:

fLyr<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>manager<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>update_definition<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">{</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">"url"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN>sNewLayerUrl <SPAN class="punctuation token">}</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

I get "RuntimeError: Invalid URL (Error Code: 400)".

hello Mark,

don't go so far, you don't need to go until the FeatureLayer object

Stay at the "Item" level, you just have to change the Item properties

item.update(item_properties={'url':newUrlString})
