Export Multiple Single PDFs By Group From ArcGIS Pro Map Series

[LeviCecil]

I have a Map Series in which each page is a floor plan for different sites. Each site's plans are grouped by the site address. I've had a request for single pdfs from each site, where the output filename is the address. That single pdf should contain all the pages of floors from the site. I need to do this for nearly 100 sites. Currently the only way I can specify output filenames based on page number or name is to choose the "multiple PDFs" export options. If I use the address as the filename, it will create one pdf and continually overwrite each page with the same name. If I choose the single PDF export option, I have to specify the filename before the export, so I would have to do this manually for all the sites. 

Here is a screenshot with an example. I want the pdf to be named "10625 SW 35TH AVE.pdf" and contain all eight pages for the Jackson site. I want to be able to do this as a single export resulting in a single pdf (with multiple pages) for each address group.

JeffBarrette,

Thank you for your post! It was really helpfull and solved my issue.

All 28 PDF files  where generated with the touch of the "run" button.

yes, this would be so helpful.  It's been great to make groups in a map series, this would be a really compliment to that functionality.

I'm using ArcGIS Pro professionally and could desperately benefit from a feature that lets you export map series pages as multiple PDF files (this feature exists) but based on their grouping/attribute (this feature does not exist). The current options don't take advantage of this feature, which is hugely redundant, considering that these groupings exist and are shown in the map series already.

Within the screenshot, the left side of the image shows the current groupings based on an attribute selected within the Map Series properties, as well as their sorting (also based on an attribute in the same properties). As it stands, I have to manually select the pages I'd like to print, and then print a PDF for each grouping at a time, one-by-one, while I have 122 groups. Being able to have another option in the "Files" options (in the bottom right side of the image) that allows multiple files based on attributes would greatly improve the workflow, enhance usability, and increase the overall automation of this program in general. This is a professional workflow that would greatly benefit me, as well as others that are keen on using this software professionally.
