Can you use clone_items to move items from one portal to another?

JamesGustine — Mon, 09 Apr 2018 22:21:07 GMT

Will this work for moving items from one portal to another?

arcgis.gis module — arcgis 1.4.0 documentation

If not, is there a copy_items with a source and target?

Thanks!

Hi James,

Please review this thread,

Copy content between Portal A and AGOL

And the sample,
GitHub - Esri/ago-clone-items: Tools used to clone items between ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise organizations.

Hope this helps,

The ago-clone-items repo is deprecated since the functionality was moved into the Python API.

You can use the Python API to deep clone items and their dependencies using "clone_items" like the following:

source_gis = arcgis.gis.GIS("https://arcgis.com","username","password")
target_gis = arcgis.gis.GIS("https://server.com/portal", "username","password")
item = source_gis.content.get("<item-id>")
target_gis.content.clone_items([item])
