I have a FeatureLayer on ArcGIS Online. It contains a Layer and a Table. Now, I want to add columns to that table (in case they were not already added) and update the values for the cells in those columns based on another column. I tried this from an ArcGIS Pro Python Notebook:
gis = GIS("pro")
ArcGIS_content = "my_feature_layer_ID"
## get ArcGIS Online layer
AGOL_survey_layer = gis.content.get(ArcGIS_content)
# get table
species_table = AGOL_survey_layer.tables[0]
species_table_df = species_table.query(as_df = True)
table_fields = list(species_table_df.columns.values)
# add new fields, if not already present
new_fields = ["field0", "field1", "field2"]
for field in new_fields:
if field not in table_fields:
arcpy.management.AddField(species_table, field_name = field,
field_type = "TEXT")
# update field values
search_cursor = arcpy.da.SearchCursor(species_table, ["input_field"])
update_cursor = arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(species_table, new_fields)
for row_search, row_update in zip(search_cursor, update_cursor):
value = row_search
row_update.updateRow(["valueField0", "vaueField1", "valueField2"])
However, this won't work. E.g., it outputs
RuntimeError: 'in_table' is not a table or a featureclass
How can I solve the issues here? The examples on pro.arcgis.com show only examples for offline tables. However, I do not want to download anything. It should update the hosted FeatureLayer's table directly on ArcGIS Online.
