FeatureLayerCollectionManager references a missing function in overwrite()

[HåkonDreyer]

After publishing a hosted service based on a gdb we would like to regulerly update the service using the overwrite functionality in Python API 1.4.1.

This works fine if the service resides in AGOL, but when trying the same in Portal the API throws an error. Apparently the FeatureLayerCollectionManager calls an unimplemented method: _overwrite_portal.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\test\overwrite.py", line 19, in <module>
    _fcoll.manager.overwrite(_data)
  File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\features\managers.py", line 1030, in overwrite
    return self._overwrite_portal(data=data_file)
AttributeError: 'FeatureLayerCollectionManager' object has no attribute '_overwrite_portal

In managers.py this is implemented as this, which also explains the difference between AGOL and Enterprise:

Håkon Dreyer‌, thanks for pointing out, I have fixed this bug and will be available in v1.4.2.

Meanwhile, you can safely comment out those two lines (1029, 1030) and overwrite functionality should work for all supported cases.

Hi Atma Mani‌ , I see you fixed the issue in 1.4.2, but I'm afraid there still might be some unsolved issues when posting to a Portal.

My testscript runs fine when posting to Online, but fails like this on Enterprise 10.5.1 and 10.6 portals.

Hi - Atma Mani, just tested the aforementioned update bug with the new 1.5 API, but except for the line numbers nothing seems to have changed.

Still works fine with ArcGIS Online.

[HåkonDreyer]

Ping Atma Mani, seems the bug lives on, just tested with 1.5 on a 10.6.1 portal.

Same problem, 10.6 portal.  Does the commenting out lines 1029 and 1030 in managers.py circumnavigate the bug on 10.6 portal?

[HåkonDreyer]

Hi, and no. Removing those lines only fixed the missing function problem, but update of items in portal still fails.

I found the same thing, commenting out that function results in error further down

Finally fixed with 1.5.1. and 10.6.1 portal

Hi Håkon,

I'm getting the same error: 'FeatureLayerCollectionManager' object has no attribute '_overwrite_portal'

I'm not sure if our portal install captured the fix. 

Was it in a patch? 

Thanks!
