Insert Cursor placing points from dictionary on top of each other

[JosephRoberts4]

I am trying to push xy locations that are being pulled from a dictionary into an insert cursor.  The cursor is reading the xy locations correctly but is putting them all in the same location instead of placing them in the actual location when pulled into a map.

What I have tried:

1. changing the SHAPE@XY - all still come in the same location on top of each other

2. removing out of try statement - all still come in the same location on top of each other

3. removing edit session - returns error saying that I have to use one

I have attached a test GDB that includes the test data. To run code, all you have to do is change the location to where ever you save the GDB.  If you have any solution, PLEASE RESPOND

Here is the my code:

import arcpy

#Trigger: When it sees a change in date, it will then add frequency to that date

#What needs to be populated: compound, maintenance task, and park

#Attributes for Each Maintenance Task feature

CompAttribs = {

#Compound Name : [Location of Point, Compound, Park]

I am not finding anything that resembles this in your code

with arcpy.da.InsertCursor(fc, ('SHAPE@', 'Name')) as icur:
    icur.insertRow([(7642471.100, 686465.725), 'New School'])
‍‍

are your following an example in the arcpy.da.Editor help?

[JosephRoberts4]

Hi Dan, 

Thanks for your response.  

The parameters of the insert cursor are being pulled from the first dictionary.  What I want is 9 points for each of the 8 locations. 

[MitchHolley1]

I don't understand what's going on in this code snippet.  You're iterating over two dictionaries, but they don't seem to be related at all.  

try:
   newMaintTask = arcpy.da.InsertCursor(fc,Fields)
   for Comps in CompAttribs:
      for Task in MaintFreq:
         if MaintFreq[Task][0] == "Maint":
            newMaintTask.insertRow([CompAttribs[Comps][0],CompAttribs[Comps][1],Task,""])
         else:
            newMaintTask.insertRow([CompAttribs[Comps][0],CompAttribs[Comps][1],"",Task])‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I assume the output would be nine points (nine iterations of the MainFreq dict) at each X,Y from CompAttribs.  

Can you explain how these two dictionaries are related?

[JosephRoberts4]

To explain the relationship, each compound(CompAttribs) has 9 task(MaintTask) that need to be executed on a regular basis. 

[JosephRoberts4]

Hi Molly,

Thanks for your response.

Thats exactly what I am trying to do.  But I need nine points that are on top of each other for 8 different locations. 

[JosephRoberts4]

My code puts all 63 points on top of each other in one location

[DanPatterson_Retired]

I guess I am not seeing where the coordinates are going into the Shape field as in the example

[MitchHolley1 · Accepted solution]

I deleted the relationship class to the attached table, and the following code worked for me.  I haven't tested it with the relationship intact.

Thanks Molly, 

That fixed it.
