How do I get a collection of operational layers from a QuickCapture Project?

Hello friends:

My question is: In the Python API, how do I get a collection of Operational Layers given a QuickCapture Project obtained in a query.

The objective is to do something with each operational layer in a QuickCapture Project Here is some code:

myQCs = gis.content.search(query="type: 'QuickCapture Project'", max_items=1000) # "QuickCapture Project" guarantees a QC Project for aQC in myQCs: qcProjectItem = gis.content.get(aQC.id)

As you can see, I can get the QuickCapture Project as a Python object. I am hoping I can use this object to obtain the operational layers. Unfortunately this is as far as the breadcrumbs lead.

Notably: '

qcProjectItem.get_data()

returns an empty object {}.

Here's hoping you can help.

Hi @Dirk_Vandervoort

Try out the following. Note: This was performed in a Notebook in ArcGIS Pro 3.2, with API version 2.2.0.1.

from arcgis.gis import GIS import json ## connect to agol agol = GIS("home") ## get QC item qcap_item = agol.content.get("ITEM_ID") ## You dont need to run this but look for qc.project.json file in list returned. for resource in qcap_item.resources.list(): print(resource) ## get json qcap_json = qcap_item.resources.get("qc.project.json") ## print json print(json.dumps(qcap_json, indent=4)) ## or just get dataSources print(json.dumps(qcap_json["dataSources"], indent=4))
