Environment:

Windows 10

Python 3.8.5

ArcGIS for Python 1.8.2

Querying ArcGIS Online

The following code works, output as csv, then read that csv back in as a Dataframe:

x = gis.admin.history(start_date=start_date, to_date=end_date, num=100, data_format='csv')

df = pd.read_csv(x)

Leaving everything the same, but trying to output directly as a Dataframe:

df = gis.admin.history(start_date=start_date, to_date=end_date, num=100, data_format='df')

Produces a TypeError :

TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str‍

    341             while len(res['items']) > 0 and res['nextKey']:
    342                 params['start'] = res['nextKey']

The data variable is a list, so I don’t think we can do this: data['items']

I THINK it’s meant to be: data.extend(res['items']) on line 340 where res is the response from the post  (line 339)

res = self._gis._con.post(url, params)

Similarly, on line 345 I changed:

data.extend(data['items'])  -->  data.extend(res['items'])


Everything seems to be working, but wasn’t sure if my “fix” might break something else?  So I was hoping to get some feedback or an “all clear” message that this fix "works" and won't break other things.  Thanks!

One quick follow up.  This is the change in code I made that seems to work.  My version on the left (red highlight) and the original version on the right (green highlight).

updated agoladmin.py  vs.  original agoladmin.py

*This is in the agoladmin.py file*
