Hello fellows,

I want to install the ArcGIS API for Python , I proceed as state at https://developers.arcgis.com/python/guide/install-and-set-up/#Install-using-Anaconda-for-Python-Dis...

but get  the following error:

conda install -c esri arcgis
Solving environment: failed

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
  - arcgis
  - xlsxwriter
Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.

then I tried the following command:

conda install arcgis
Solving environment: failed

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

I added the a new channel using the following command:

conda config --append channels https://anaconda.org/Esri/arcgis

Using the command

conda search ArcGIS

Another try:

1. Install Anaconda 3
2. create an environment:
   conda create -n arcgis python=2.7
3. Install the package
   conda install -c "Esri" ArcGIS

The funny thing is that it install Python 3.5.3....
