Cannot import 'Layer' from arcgis.mapping

[Sfortunatamente]

Hi,

I am working on a simple script which copies a web map and adds a new layer:

from arcgis.gis import GIS
from arcgis.mapping import WebMap
from arcgis.mapping import Layer

I receive:

ImportError: cannot import name 'Layer' from 'arcgis.mapping' (C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\mapping\__init__.py)

ArcGIS Pro 3.1.1

What is wrong?

Thanks.

There is no class Layer in arcgis.mapping .

Here are some classes that could be what you want:

for x in arcgis.mapping.__dict__.keys():
    print(x)

...
MapImageLayer
MapImageLayerManager
...
VectorTileLayer
...
Object3DLayer
IntegratedMeshLayer
Point3DLayer
VoxelLayer
PointCloudLayer
BuildingLayer
SceneLayer
...
MapServiceLayer
MapFeatureLayer
MapTable
MapRasterLayer
...

It's also possible that you actually want arcpy.mp.Layer ...

Thanks a lot! I should be more careful with AI then..
