Sort or Filter by Retiring Items in AGOL

[Teresa_Blader]

Since Esri's recent app retirement announcement for ArcGIS Online, I've been combing through our organization trying to figure out what sort of workload we've got amongst all of our users. Web AppBuilder was easy enough using the Web AppBuilder filter.

For the rest, there's a "Web app" filter, however this some includes Instant Apps for some reason and community analyst components. Not sure why Instant Apps show up, since Instant Apps has it's own filter. So that's not super helpful.

So it'd be nice if there was a filter to find the items that are facing retirement like classic story maps and maps designed using Map Viewer Classic that have yet to be saved in Map Viewer.

This script might help:

from arcgis.gis import GIS

gis = GIS("home")

classic_webmaps = []
classic_storymaps = []
web_appbuilder_apps = []
classic_configurable_apps = []

all_items = gis.content.search(query='', item_type='Map', max_items=10000) # item_type = 'Map' gets both Web Map and Web Mapping Application items

for item in all_items:
    if item.type == "Web Map":
        if not "ArcGIS API for JavaScript" in item.typeKeywords: # this keyword may indicate 4x map
            classic_webmaps.append(item)

    if item.type == "Web Mapping Application":
        if "Story Map" in item.typeKeywords and not "StoryMap" in item.typeKeywords: # keyword 'Story Map' (with a space) indicates classic Story Map
            classic_storymaps.append(item)
        if any(keyword in item.typeKeywords for keyword in ["Web AppBuilder", "WAB2D"]):
            web_appbuilder_apps.append(item)
        if not any(keyword in item.typeKeywords for keyword in ["Web AppBuilder", "WAB2D", "configurableApp", "Ready To Use"]):
            classic_configurable_apps.append(item)

print(f"--------\nThe following {len(classic_webmaps)} web maps may not have been saved in the new Map Viewer:\n")
for map in classic_webmaps:
    print(f"{map.title} ({map.id})")
            
print(f"\n--------\nThe following {len(classic_storymaps)} apps may be classic/3x Story Maps:\n")
for app in classic_storymaps:
    print(f"{app.title} ({app.id})")
    
print(f"\n--------\nThe following {len(web_appbuilder_apps)} apps are Web AppBuilder apps:\n")
for app in web_appbuilder_apps:
    print(f"{app.title} ({app.id})")
        
print(f"\n--------\nThe following {len(classic_configurable_apps)} apps may be classic/3x configurable apps:\n")
for app in classic_configurable_apps:
    print(f"{app.title} ({app.id})")

Thank you!! But unfortunately I have no experience with running scripts really... is this something you run in ArcGIS Notebooks or where is this script running?? 😮

[Teresa_Blader]

Ok, I think I figured it out for ArcGIS Notebooks. For my documentation I really need to see who is the owner, when it was last modified, what type of item it is, the full url, and who it's currently shared with... so basically everything that displays when searching content normally.

I assume I just add whatever those items are to the print output??

Try this. It will create a CSV item in your portal with the additional information. Yes, running in a Notebook is probably easiest if you're not familiar with Python.

Please note that it's not guaranteed that this will get all 3x items, and it may get some that are not relevant. Esri doesn't have documentation on how these are defined by keyword, so this is my attempt based on what I see in the portals I use.
