Save Map object with 2 added layers (Feature Collections)

IonutAlixandroae4 — Tue, 01 Aug 2017 20:36:02 GMT

Hi all,

Is it possible to save into account a map created with GIS.map() and with 2 layers added into it (map.add_layer()) which are in-memory (layers are feature collections from a pandas data frame - with 2 columns, x and y) ?

And after to insert the id of the saved map into an application json and publish the app?

Thanks,

Ionut

We are working on this capability - saving map widget to a webmap and also creating a webmap from scratch using Python. If you need this functionality immediately, you can do the following

save the DataFrame into a FeatureCollection item using `import_data()` method
compose a webmap as explained in this sample publishing_web_maps_and_web_scenes | ArcGIS for Developers

Hi Atma,

Thanks for your input.

I have added the Feature Collection into GIS and after published as Feature Layer; after publishing, I have updated the webmap`s JSON to include the Feature Layer and created the map.

Thanks a lot!
