I am having an issue saving a pandas data frame as a table in the active ArcGIS Pro workspace.

I have converted the entire data frame to string data types using the following line of code:

import pandas

df = df.applymap(str)

When I run the to_table geoprocessing tool, with the following line of code, I receive this error:

import arcpy

import arcpy.sa import *

df.spatial.to_table(location="tbl_name")

TypeError: 'field_names' must be string or non empty sequence of strings

 I have attached a csv file of the data frame for reference.

The first field is missing a field name in the first row.

Does the index need a field name? I'm not seeing the index show up as a column when running the dtypes argument.

you posted a csv and the error is complaining about a missing name, perhaps you have to provide the field names somewhere

I am having the exact same issue. What is interesting for me, is that this worked perfectly in Pro until I just upgraded to 3.2.0

Previous to upgrading my pro version, it worked...now I get the same TypeError. Have you had any luck?
