Not able to connect cityengine and arcgis urban

[Krishnendu_MB]

I am using city engine 2022.1. As a beginner I am trying to establish a connection with ArcGIS Urban, but the scenes are coming without the models to the city engine when imported from Urban. After doing changes in cityengine I cannot save it back or publish to arc urban.

Hello @Krishnendu_MB 

Thank you for your question. In ArcGIS Urban, the buildings are stored as Spaces. This Spaces can be procedurally generated based on the zoning regulation, building type, and manual parcel overrides. The CityEngine integration with ArcGIS Urban is limited to making changes to such parcel shapes and their parcel attributes:

Please note that CityEngine does not support importing manually edited spaces, buildings from footprints and custom demolish areas:
