ArcGIS Pro in application software updates to use local files

mattkramer — Thu, 28 Sep 2023 17:35:05 GMT

I am looking to get our ArcGIS Pro users to be able to update their application without having to sign into ArcGIS Online. Currently, when the ArcGIS Pro software notification appears, they would have to sign into ArcGIS Online to download an update through Pro. Is it possible to get this software update interface to reference a local file instead of one that requires an ArcGIS Online account? Not all of our users have accounts in ArcGIS Online since most of our data is saved in our Enterprise environment.

This page outlines how to host the update files, but doing it this way would require our users to install these patches and updates outside of Pro.

Customers can download ArcGIS Pro patches from my.esri.com then you can place the Pro patch in a network shared folder that all your users can access, or you can automate a process with your IT department to automatically update Pro. I hope this helps.

Thank you! That does, just confirming, there is no way to get this "Download Now" button to reference that network shared folder file, right?

I wouldn't think so, and the IT department route is probably the best for us, but just making sure.

Once you download the ArcGIS Pro Patch from my.esri.com you can copy the installer to your Pro machine, then close Pro and double click the installer. Example: ArcGIS_Pro_313_185015.msp will update to Pro 3.1.3

Hi Marcelo,

I work in the IT department for a county in California. Please help me understand how to automate a process to automatically update Pro to the latest version/patch. (I tried "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\ArcGISUpdate.exe" but it didn't work for me.) A Python script would be ideal!

Thanks,

Brian
