Migrating code from ArcGIS Desktop python 2.7.3 to ArcGIS Pro python 3.6.2

SyedGardezi — Wed, 18 Jul 2018 07:25:32 GMT

I am calling the following function:

import arcpy
arcpy.JoinField_management(in_data,in_field,join_table,join_table_field,fields)

It works perfectly fine using ArcGIS Desktop python 2.6 but gives the following trace using ArcGIS Pro python arcgispro-py3

input parameters:
arcpy.JoinField_management(
temp_layer,
NEAR_FID,
xyz.gdb\xyz\xyz,
OBJECTID,
dict_values(['xyz']
)

Traceback (most recent call last):
    arcpy.JoinField_management(in_data,in_field,join_table,join_table_field,fields)
    raise e
    retval = convertArcObjectToPythonObject(gp.JoinField_management(*gp_fixargs((in_data, in_field, join_table, join_field, fields), True)))
    return lambda *args: val(*gp_fixargs(args, True))
RuntimeError: Object: Error in executing tool

I check I passed exactly the same varabiels to both function but I am getting this error. can you give soem hints as to what might be the issue?

/blogs/dan_patterson/2016/08/14/script-formatting rather than screen grabs

you are missing a ")" at the end of dict_values
xyz.gdb\xyz\xyz needs to be r"xyz.gdb\xyz\xyz" if that is the real gdb name
Analyze Tools For Pro—Data Management toolbox | ArcGIS Desktop

should be used to check for 2 to 3 changes in tool parameters etc

Is this code being run in the interactive Python window of ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro or standalone script?

Thanks Dan Patterson, gdb name wasnt unicode string for Pythin 3! Fixing it solved the issue. Thanks for sharing the tool I will use it.

Its standalone script.
