search items using a specific service url

Hi,

We want to remove a set of mapServices that are hosted on ArcGIS Enterprise. We would like to know if some items in ArcGIS Online were created using those mapServices before pulling the plug.

Is there a way to scan ArcGIS Online content using a specific url so items that were added "from the web" could be find?

Thank you!

If you're comfortable with a bit of Python, this is pretty doable using the ArcGIS Python API. Items added "from the web" will be stored in the map's JSON, and this is searchable.

Here's a little script we run when we're looking for dependencies. This is written for checking within a single Portal, but could easily adapt for cross-portal checking by entering the URL instead of the itemID.

from arcgis import GIS from arcgis.mapping import WebMap import pandas as pd # connect to portal gis = GIS('your portal url', 'user', 'pass') print('Let''s find some dependencies!') print('Works best w/ ItemID, but you can use a URL, too.') itemid = input('Enter ItemID (leave empty for URL): ') item = gis.content.get(itemid) # check item type. pull url if service if item.type in ['Feature Service', 'Tile Layer', 'Map Service']: itemurl = gis.content.get(itemid).url if itemid else input('Service URL: ') print('Feature service detected. Looking for web maps with this layer.') webmaps = gis.content.search('', item_type='Web Map', max_items=-1) map_list = [m for m in webmaps if str(m.get_data()).find(itemurl) > -1] print(f'{len(map_list)} maps found!') elif item.type in ['Web Map']: print('Web map detected. Checking for apps that reference this map.') map_list = [item] else: itemurl = 'no url' # get apps that reference url or matched maps apptypes = ['Application', 'Dashboard', 'Story Map', 'Web Experience'] webapps = [item for sublist in [gis.content.search('', item_type=t, max_items=-1) for t in apptypes] for item in sublist] app_list = [] for w in webapps: try: wdata = str(w.get_data()) criteria = [ wdata.find(find_url) > -1, wdata.find(find_id) > -1, any([wdata.find(m.id) > -1 for m in map_list]) ] if any(criteria): app_list.append(w) # Some apps don't have data, so we'll just skip them if they throw a TypeError except: continue print(f'{len(app_list)} apps found!') # create dataframe dependencies = pd.concat( [ pd.DataFrame([{'title':a.title, 'id':a.id, 'type':a.type, 'url':f'{gis.url}/home/item.html?id={a.id}'} for a in app_list]), pd.DataFrame([{'title':m.title, 'id':m.id, 'type':m.type, 'url':f'{gis.url}/home/item.html?id={m.id}'} for m in map_list]) ] ) dependencies.to_csv('dependencies.csv')
