How to set PortalFolder when publishing via arcpy.sharing?

tigerwoulds · ‎11-16-2021

I am using the example here to publish map image layers with associated feature layers from an EGDB to ArcGIS Enterprise. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/2.9/arcpy/sharing/mapimagesharingdraft-class.htm#GUID-98B8320E-356...

I have set the portalFolder property in line 87 to an existing folder in my Portal but the services get placed in my root Portal Folder. How do I publish my services to the specified Portal Folder rather than the root folder?

import arcpy
import os
import xml.dom.minidom as DOM

def configure_featureserver_capabilities(sddraftPath, capabilities):
    """Function to configure FeatureServer properties"""
    # Read the .sddraft file
    doc = DOM.parse(sddraftPath)

    # Find all elements named TypeName
    # This is where the additional layers and capabilities are defined
    typeNames = doc.getElementsByTagName('TypeName')
    for typeName in typeNames:
        # Get the TypeName to enable
        if typeName.firstChild.data == "FeatureServer":
            extension = typeName.parentNode
            for extElement in extension.childNodes:
                if extElement.tagName == 'Info':
                    for propSet in extElement.childNodes:
                        for prop in propSet.childNodes:
                            for prop1 in prop.childNodes:
                                if prop1.tagName == "Key":
                                    if prop1.firstChild.data == 'WebCapabilities':
                                        if prop1.nextSibling.hasChildNodes():

Right, I see the same behavior when I upload to ArcGIS Online as a feature layer, and work around it by moving it to the right folder after the publish (See the code below). You may have a make some tweaks if publishing to a portal or publishing a map image layer.

rsp = arcpy.UploadServiceDefinition_server(<sd_filename>, "HOTING_SERVER")
gis_item = gis.content.get(rsp[3])
gis_item.move(<destination_folder>)

Thanks for the tip, got me going in the right direction. I added a snippet to get everything from the root folder and move it to a specified folder. Kind of a hacky solution that makes the assumption that the root folder is empty by default, but it does the job for now.

arcpy.UploadServiceDefinition_server(sdOutFileName, gisServer)
    myUser = gis.users.get(parameters[1].valueAsText)
    rootfolder = myUser.items()
    for item in rootfolder:
        item.move(parameters[5].valueAsText)
