Hello,
I have a python script that I use to publish map and image services to an ArcGIS Enterprise server for my organization, and the script involve creating an .sddraft file, modifying the XML in the .sddraft file, transforming it to a service definition file, then publishing it.
I was wondering if the XML schema for the .sddraft file is documented anywhere? My modifications to the .sddraft file are based on what I find on other ESRI forum posts and documentation, but there are some settings that I don’t know how to configure since I don’t know the XML schema.
Is there a better way to achieve what I am trying to do? If there’s a better approach with a simpler interface that would be wonderful.
I am using ArcPro 3.0 and publishing to ArcGIS Server 10.9.1
