topic Geoprocessing Service Restricted to Python Scripts? in ArcGIS JavaScript Maps SDK Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-questions/geoprocessing-service-restricted-to-python-scripts/m-p/162831#M15143 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I want to incorporate a geoprocessing service into my web services. Basically I want to click anywhere on a map, and use those lat/lon coordinates as inputs for a Python script. My question is, are geoprocessing tools restricted only to Model Builder and Python scripts? I want to be able to return a chart from this click event. The Python script extracts data from a raster and outputs a csv file. A Visual Basic script then creates a chart in Excel from this csv file. Is it possible to incorporate a VB script into a geoprocessing tool on the server? I've looked at the examples of GP services in the API reference, but I haven't found&nbsp;anything similar to what I want to do.&nbsp;</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 04 Jan 2017 20:38:53 GMT LloydBronn 2017-01-04T20:38:53Z Geoprocessing Service Restricted to Python Scripts? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-questions/geoprocessing-service-restricted-to-python-scripts/m-p/162831#M15143 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I want to incorporate a geoprocessing service into my web services.

Can you point to any examples of this method? Is it something that can be triggered from a click event in the JavaScript API?</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 05 Jan 2017 15:48:59 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-questions/geoprocessing-service-restricted-to-python-scripts/m-p/162833#M15145 LloydBronn 2017-01-05T15:48:59Z
