I am trying to build a shortlist story map and running into some problems I'm trying to work around. Hopefully this all makes sense to somebody.
I want my maps to be dynamically populated based on data received from public surveys through survey123. These surveys have the option to include pictures that are apparently stored as attachments and are not part of the normal table. So in order for the shortlist to recognize the pictures then I have to either manually move the pictures over to a specific picture field, or use something like the convert attachments tool. I want the map to stay as updated as possible so I would like to eventually have windows task scheduler run some python scripts to update this data once or twice a day.
I'm not good with python, but I've managed to get the tool box loaded into arcmap and can run the tool from there. Any help with explaining how to run this tool from windows task scheduler would be great as well. I've tried running it outside of arcmap in command prompts and python command line, but no luck so far. If you also happen to know of any good guidance on how to adapt the python script to perform other updates, such as run a calculated field, then that would also be useful.
Unfortunately, I keep getting various errors when I try to run the tool. Sometimes I get token errors, which I don't understand. Often times I get errors saying I don't have attachments, but I think I do. So anyways, looking for somebody that can help me trouble shoot this thing please.
My last error message.
