JobManager AttributeError

I'm attempting to look at the jobs for a GPService, but I get the following Attribute Error. I guess my question is "am I doing this right?" - I have a GPService that is an arcgis.gis.server.admin._services.Service, from which I get the JobManager, and from that, I thought, the jobs...

Maybe a more general way to frame the question is "how do I get all the jobs for a given GPService?"

Error:

jobs = service.jobs.search() --------------------------------------------------------------------------- AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) Cell In[28], line 1 ----> 1 jobs = service.jobs.search() File C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\Lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis\server\admin\_services.py:2123, in JobManager.search(self, start_time, end_time, status, username, machine) 2119 results = [] 2120 res = self._con.get(url, params) 2121 results = [ 2122 Job(url="%s/%s" % (self._url, key), con=self._con) -> 2123 for key in res["results"].keys() 2124 ] 2125 while res["nextStart"] > -1: 2126 params["start"] = res["nextStart"] AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'keys'

The error is from a Python API/server mismatch, not your idea. Two things to check, then two working patterns.

Check first

The GP service must be asynchronous (executionType = esriExecutionTypeAsynchronous). Synchronous tasks have no jobs.
Your ArcGIS API for Python in Pro is older than your Server (11.x). Newer Server returns a list for results, but the older client expects a dict → your AttributeError.

Fix options

A) Use the supported Admin path (works when versions mismatch):

from arcgis.gis import GIS gis = GIS("https://yourportal/portal", "admin", "pwd") srv = gis.admin.servers.list()[0] # pick the hosting/server svc = srv.services.get("Folder/MyGPService.GPServer") # or just "MyGPService.GPServer" # hit the /jobs endpoint directly resp = svc._con.get(f"{svc._url}/jobs", params={"f":"json"}) # add filters: status, startTime, endTime jobs = resp.get("jobs", []) print(len(jobs), jobs[:3])

B) Update the client, then use the high-level helper:

In Pro’s Python Package Manager, update to the latest arcgis package.
Then:

jobs = svc.jobs.search(status="esriJobSucceeded") # should now work

Notes

If your service has multiple tasks, you can also query per task:
.../GPServer/<TaskName>/jobs?f=json
For federated sites, use the Server Admin URL (…/arcgis/admin/services/…/jobs) when you need full history.
