    <title>idea Cloning a Feature Layer Using the clone_items Method in ArcGIS API for Python Ideas</title>
    <link>https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-api-for-python-ideas/cloning-a-feature-layer-using-the-clone-items/idi-p/1580309</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;Initially, when I copy featurelayer on AGOL,I encountered an error, as described in this &lt;A href="https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-api-for-python-questions/cloning-quot-failed-to-create-feature-service-lt/m-p/1234319" target="_self"&gt;link&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;To resolve the issue, I modified the typeKeywords and then executed clone_items, which allowed me to successfully copy the feature layer without errors.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;However, reverting the typeKeywords afterward was tedious. To simplify the process, I decided to clone the entire Web Map associated with the hosted feature layer instead.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I executed clone_items by entering the Web Map’s item ID, and the process completed successfully.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Afterward, I deleted the copied Web Map.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Conclusion&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;When working with data for backup or testing purposes, cloning the entire Web Map is more efficient as it reduces the number of steps involved.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
