Publishing a Pro Python toolbox to ArcGIS Server 10.8.1

[Jay_Gregory]

My understanding is that Pro using Python 3.  So if I were to create a script toolbox in ArcGIS Pro, I would be using Python 3 and the packages installed with the default arcgispro-py3 conda environment.  

So if I tried to publish this script toolbox to ArcGIS Server 10.8.1 to expose the tool as a geoprocessing service, and since Server uses Python 2.7, will executing this geoprocessing service not work?  Do I need to still be writing script tools in ArcMap in order to expose them as geoprocessing services?

Thanks!

ArcGIS Server is hosting a compatible ArcGIS Pro Python 3.x environment.
