https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/is-there-a-way-to-run-a-python-script-in-pycharm/m-p/1079627#M61781 <P>I've been scripting for ArcGIS Pro at my new job for a few months now. I use PyCharm for my scripts with the arcgispro-py3 environment. I've noticed if I don't close down the project with the data I'm manipulating in my script, I'll get a data lock error. So, this makes me have to close and reopen it after the smallest scripting change and this adds so much unnecessary time. Is there anyway I can get around this?</P> Fri, 16 Jul 2021 12:53:31 GMT GeoDev 2021-07-16T12:53:31Z https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/is-there-a-way-to-run-a-python-script-in-pycharm/m-p/1079627#M61781 <P>I've been scripting for ArcGIS Pro at my new job for a few months now.
