ArcGIS Hub Data to fgdb

forestknutsen1 — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 10:00:09 GMT

I want to download data from the city's ArcGIS Hub with python and save it in a fgdb to then be loaded into sde. I have started with this tutorial - ArcGIS Hub. While I can get the feature layer with python I am having a hard time understanding how to save it to a gdb. (I have used arcpy a fair bit but I am new to this arcgis API)

from arcgis.features import FeatureLayer

shoreliness_url = \
    'https://services2.arcgis.com/Ce3DhLRthdwbHlfF/arcgis/rest/services/Shorelines_Hosted/FeatureServer/0'
shoreliness = FeatureLayer(shoreliness_url)
# ???

Suggestions?

hmmmm something amiss with your setup?

ArcGIS Pro 2.6 Beta 1 (sorry, no 2.5)

arcgis module installed in the base installation (ie, no clone)

numpy, pandas and the rest are already installed.

I didn't install geopandas, so I can't help you with the geometry

My issues are with the back-end configuration and management for organizations, particularly around caching. I won't get into the details here, but Hub had a perfectly workable, user-defined/initiated caching scheme that Esri threw out the window a while back because, well, I don't know exactly. Every "explanation" I have heard simply becomes white noise once I get a sense the product team think they know my needs better than myself.
