Pubilishing to ArcGIS Online via Arcpy

ThomasIllingworth — Thu, 09 Jun 2022 13:15:03 GMT

Hello Everyone

Does anyone if it is possible to use ArcPy to publish feature layers up to ArcGIS Online from say an enterprise geodatabase as a source including overwriting the layer?

We are exploring ways to do open data without using our enterprise web services if possible. Including python, distributed collaboration from enterprise to name a few things

If not no worries just curious 🙂

Thanks

Tom

That is what the Python API was built to do, work with online content. The GIS module is the one to read up on.

To add onto that, if you're using the Python API together with ArcPy, you can load a geodatabase layer into a spatial dataframe, and then publish that directly to a service.

Alternatively, you can use ArcPy to prepare a service definition, then use the Python API to publish it as a new item.

Here you go by way of code.

I should probably add a few notes...

The way I handle this kind of publishing is, and this is because it is hosted, I publish a private copy of the data (as shown by way of example in the code) and then create a view of the published service that is consumed by the end user/product. In a way, this provides a abstraction layer to how you are configured allowing a greater degree of control and/or reuse of the same data for multiple products if you need to slice and dice the data different. 1 "service" to rule them all. Thankfully, when you overwrite the service during publishing the view remains connected and configured. The only caveat to that would be if someone changes the schema on the core service. Then you need to recreate the views. 1 downside for a lot of upside.
