Publishing mxd file automatically using python

Hello

I have ARC 10.3 in my desktop . I am trying to publish mxd file automatically using python script , i used similar code posted in this thread. But it is showing error , unless i signed in manually through the ARCmap, it wont publish the map. The error is as follows

ExecuteError: Failed to execute. Parameters are not valid.
ERROR 000732: Server: Dataset My Hosted Services does not exist or is not supported
WARNING 001404: You are not signed in to ArcGIS Online.
Failed to execute (UploadServiceDefinition).

Hi Philipos,

Can you post which thread you are referring to that had the existing Python code?

Was it perhaps this one: Python and Publishing to AGO for Organisations and My Hosted Services does not exist

(if not, take a look).

Some info: Take a look at the Esri support error message article on your error message:

Error: 000732: Dataset does not exist or is not supported

And then maybe take a look at this thread which has some coding ideas to get around this error:

ERROR 000732 View does not exist or unsupported after 10.3 upgrade

One more thread to look at about signing into ArcGIS Online:

oh, and just for giggles, I like this help idea:

Howdy Adrian

I was referring to this thread https://community.esri.com/thread/70855

I am trying to publish a map document to AGOL every 12 hrs by setting up the python code to task schedule. The mxd map gets published but this only happens if i am only signed in acrmap. The problem is after some time the arcmap signs out and unless i sign in back manually ,when i try to publish it shows error mentioned in the original question.

The code i am using is posted in the above thread. Is there some way to stay signed in for ever or a python script to sign in in to ArcMAp
