I am trying to automate importing metadata in Arc Catalog. I want to run this script to use a template for each feature class within a geodatabase. The error I get in my script is ERROR 000816: The tool is not valid.I am not quite sure where I have went wrong in this. Here is my code:
import arcpy
#imports the python library into the Arc systems
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:\Users\hallle\Documents\Lin_Metadata\Metadata.gdb"
#sets the workspace that will be used for the script
#arcpy.ImportMetadata_conversion("C:\Users\hallle\Documents\Lin_Metadata\Template.xml","FROM_ISO_19139","Active_Gas_Main")
#imports the metadata template into the desired file
cname = open("C:\Users\hallle\Documents\Lin_Metadata\classnames.txt",'r')
n = 0
for line in cname:
print line
arcpy.ImportMetadata_conversion("C:\Users\hallle\Documents\Lin_Metadata\Template.xml","FROM_ISO_19139","C:\Users\hallle\Documents\Lin_Metadata\classnames.txt")
print 'The name of the file is ' (r)
n = n + 1
print 'Done'
Also, the two commented lines of code with an import metadata conversion was just there for debugging.Thanks.
