function create point features along a line. enter the distances as a whole list.

Hi,

In the Aquaveo SMS program, I read out a lot of data using a line. 
I would like to display the data along the line, 
but the other program only gives the values along the line with distances. 
Since I would have to enter about 4000 distances per line, in the function create point features along a line.
it would be great if someone could tell me how I can enter the distances as a whole 
list.

Thank you very much

If I had this task, I would use Linear Referencing tools: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/linear-referencing/an-overview-of-the-linear-referencing-toolbox.htm

Something like this: Create Routes from your lines > Make Route Event Layer (the Event table is your distance values)
