Hello all,

Is there a way to re-connect the data source for an ArcGIS Pro table frame using Python code? The script I am using deletes the connection and I would like to re-establish that connection (later in the script) so that my layout (see below) displays my table statistics.

I'm a novice at Python programming. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I haven't done a table frame before, but looking at the arcpy.mp module and Table class, there is an updateConnectionProperties method that looks promising. Maybe you can just update connections instead of deleting (and breaking) them?

I have the same problem, I can't set a table frame's source to a new table generated from scratch using a python script. Is it possible?
