ArcGIS Online Experience Builder - uploading configs

vl-driscolls — Thu, 19 Sep 2024 22:33:12 GMT

Hello, I am trying to create an Experience Builder app on ArcGIS Online with arcgis.gis

I can create an Experience Builder item and edit the data json with:

item.update(data=my_data)

The problem is that the Experience Builder created is lacking a config/config.json resource, which seems required open the Experience Builder in the editor, without it, the editor just shows a blank white screen where the app preview is supposed to be.

I have tried:

update_info_response = editing_app_item.update_info(config_file_path, folder_name='config')

Which doesn't create a config in the resources when I check the item in ArcGIS Assistant.

Does anyone know if there's a way to upload / edit the config?

Hi @vl-driscolls ,

Take a look at these tools. The Copy Exp Apps.py contains functionality to copy an Experience Builder application using an existing Experience Builder's JSON. You can debug this to look at the JSON being passed to create the application. Ex:

# Get Exp App JSON expApp = source.content.get(expAppID) expAppDict = expApp.get_data(try_json=True) # Convert dict to JSON expAppJSON = json.dumps(expAppDict) # Exp App Properties exp_app_properties = {'title': expApp.title, 'type': 'Web Experience', 'snippet': expApp.snippet, 'description': expApp.description, 'tags': expApp.tags, 'text': expAppJSON} # Create Exp App expAppItem = target.content.add(item_properties=exp_app_properties, owner=targetOwner)
