Hi
I want to find out which AGOL groups particular objects belong to, and in doing so seem to have come across a python "group" object within a dictionary, which is difficult to access. I looked it up and the only "group type" object in python I find reference to is h5py "group" objects, but that is not it.
So this is what I am trying to do: I have an AGOL item, and I want to know what AGOL groups this item belongs to. This information can be found when calling "shared_with", which returns a dictionary:
print (item.shared_with)
This returns:
{'everyone': False, 'org': False, 'groups': [<Group title:"Group name" owner:some_user>]}
I thought that what is (within the dictionary) in the list i.e. between [ and ] is a string i.e I though that this is a string:
<Group title:"Group name" owner:some_user>
But when I use some string functions on it, like split, it complains that this is not a string object:
AttributeError: 'Group' object has no attribute 'split'
(I know the use of the term "group" is confusing here, I am looking for AGOL groups and the name 'group' also appears in what is returned between < >), but what I think is what is between < > is also some sort of a python "group" object.)
So whatever is between < and > is a python "group" object? To be honest I have never heard of it and googling does not help either. Anyone knows what kind of object this is and how to access it? It is not a string, that's for sure.
Thanks
Hugo
