Python scripting for ArcPad Checkin

RichardGwozdz — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 14:16:10 GMT

I can use ArcGIS Desktop (10.1) model builder to leverage the ArcPad Check In Tool. When I run the model it executes successfully. When I export the model as python I get this code:

import arcpy

# Local variables:
Test02_axf = "C:\\aWorkspace\\ESA\\ArcPad\\AXFs\\Test02.axf"

# Process: ArcPad Check In
arcpy.ArcPadCheckin_ArcPad(Test02_axf, "", "")
However, when I run this code in the python window I get:

Runtime error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 8, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ArcPadCheckin_ArcPad'

And yes indeed arcpy has no function named ArcPadCheckin_ArcPad. So model builder must be exporting erroneous code.

Does someone out there know what the issue is here? Is there really anyway to do this operation with python?

it works with the old pre-arcpy solution

import arcgisscripting
# Create the Geoprocessor object
gp = arcgisscripting.create()


# Local variables:
Test02_axf = "C:\\aWorkspace\\ESA\\ArcPad\\AXFs\\Test02.axf"

# Process: ArcPad Check In
gp.ArcPadCheckin_ArcPad(Test02_axf, "", "")
