Overwrite Feature Layer from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online using arcpy

Alice — Wed, 19 Jan 2022 15:30:31 GMT

Hello everybody!

I would like to overwrite several layers from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online using arcpy. The layer names in ArcGIS Online and Pro are completly different from each other.

My idea was to assign the new layer in ArcGIS Pro with the old layer in ArcGIS Online via a dictionary. But I dont know how to proceed...

Could you please help me with that?

I'm very new to scripting. I used a lot from https://github.com/rooschu/overwrite-web-layers/blob/master/OverwriteWebLayers.py

and

https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/2.8/arcpy/sharing/featuresharingdraft-class.htm

My script so far is:

prjFolder = r"path" prjPath = os.path.join(prjFolder, r"path to .aprx") # Set login credentials portal = "..." user = "XXX" password = "XXX" # Assign name and location for temporary staging files tempPath = prjFolder #select layers in arcgis pro layers = geoMap.listLayers() service_name = [] for x in layers: service_name.append(x.name) #sharing draft stringdraft = ".sddraft" sddraft_filename = [x + stringdraft for x in service_name] sddraft = os.path.join(tempPath, *sddraft_filename) #sharing sd stringsd = ".sd" sd_filename = [x + stringsd for x in service_name] sd = os.path.join(tempPath, *sd_filename) # Connect to ArcGIS online print("Connecting to {}".format(portal)) gis = GIS(portal, user, password) print("Successfully logged in as: " + gis.properties.user.username + "\n") # Assign environment and project, and create empty dictionaries arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True prj = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(prjPath) layerDict = {} servDict = {} # Populate map dictionary with map names and objects from earlier defined project for layer in geoMap.listLayers (): layerDict[layer.name] = layer #select ArcGIS Online Web Layers lyItems = gis.content.search(query="owner:{0}".format(user),item_type="Feature Layer", max_items=100) ext= ["WFL1", "_Faelle", "genschaft"] service_name = [item for item in lyItems if item.title.endswith(tuple(ext))]

Also when I try to create the both os.path.join() it doesn't create six diferent paths but one very long path with all my layers added.

Code formatting ... the Community Version - Esri Community

would help to provide line numbers and code syntax highlights

you collect values, then joining all of them, so you have an indentation issue, format the code and see if the join is occurring inside or outside the collection loop

thanks for the replay. I changed the code

As I suspected. By example compare your results to this example

tempPath = r"c:\folder" tempPath 'c:\\folder' service_name = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] stringsd = ".sd" sd_filename = [x + stringsd for x in service_name] sd = os.path.join(tempPath, *sd_filename) sd 'c:\\folder\\a.sd\\b.sd\\c.sd\\d.sd' # -- your output for nme in sd_filename: sd = os.path.join(tempPath, nme) print(sd) # --- my output c:\folder\a.sd c:\folder\b.sd c:\folder\c.sd c:\folder\d.sd
