Python script to export layout to JPG

LindaSlattery — Fri, 05 Nov 2021 15:22:10 GMT

I am trying to find a script that exports my layout in ArcPro to a JPG once a week. Most of what I have found when searching has been for map series. Can anyone assist? Thanks!

This help page seems to imply you can just export a single layout to just about whatever image format you like. The arcpy.mp module does takes a little getting used to.

Hi Linda

would this works for you?

import arcpy docPath = r"D:\FOLDER" docName = r"AGSPRODOC.aprx" p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(docPath+"\\"+docName) # ge a list of all layouts in your map dox lLayout = p.listLayouts() for l in lLayout: print(l.name) #You could add an if statement to print ONLY a specific layout l.exportToJPEG(docPath+"\\"+l.name+"jpg") print("Process Completed")

@DominicRobergeIADOT , this works great! Thank you! However, one thing it is not doing is including my dynamic text that I have in the layout. I have a date/time exported and a record count. Any idea how to get the print command to include those?

hummm I am not sure. it's working for me (see image below). Can you try to add a new dynamic txt for the count just for fun.
