Publishing script tool as Geoprocessing Service - Input turned as Constant Value

[User35489]

Hello,

A tool created for conversion, worked fine on ArcGIS Pro, but while/when published the Input value changed to constant value, need kindly help

Environment: ArcGIS Pro 3.2.1, ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1

arcpy.Parameter(displayName="Output JSON File",
name="out_json",
datatype="DEFile",
parameterType="Required",
direction="Output")
]
return params

def execute(self, parameters, messages):
"""The source code of the tool."""
in_cad = parameters[0].valueAsText
out_json = parameters[1].valueAsText

desktop = os.path.join(os.path.join(os.environ['USERPROFILE']), 'Desktop')

newpath = desktop+str(r'\output')
if not os.path.exists(newpath):

First thing that pops out at me is the indentation is wrong. Did that change when you uploaded it to this web site or is it really like that. I don't know if I got the for loops indented correctly around line 52....

@Brian_Wilson Indentation is correct in the code, somehow it got posted wrong, all without indents. The tool worked fine in ArcGIS Pro.

[User35489]

Even while publishing, it has got the same issue.

[Brian_Wilson]

It looks like you did not include the complete code, aside from the indentation problem. If you are setting up a "Script" then you specify parameters in the Toolbox. If you are setting up a Python Toolbox then there is code that wraps around what you posted. The imports at the top then the class definition for the Python Toolbox and the class for the tool.

If you post the whole thing (with correct indentation) then I can paste it into my editor and try it out. Then maybe I can help with the actual error.

When you open the "code" window here, make sure you select "Python" before you paste your code into it. That's probably why it removed all the indentation. It defaults to "C". (Bad choice)

@Brian_Wilson Please find below. Thanks for your interest.

Further in research,

CAD file data type is considered as a non-simple feature. Thus it cannot be used as a user input.
