I have a geoservice that get some text stored from a table in order to return a json string to a javascript client. However, the arcpy.SetParameter() seems to have problem to returns the escaped new lines character ( \\n ) my_dict = {"key1" : "test is a string with\nsome escaped characters\nsuch newlines"} my_json = json.dumps(my_dict) print(my_json) >>> '{"key1": "test is a string with\\nsome escaped characters\\nsuch newlines"}' arcpy.SetParameter(0, my_json) in the javascript console the response is the following which is not a valid json: {"key1" : "test is a string with some escaped characters such newlines"} Is there a solution? ...

Is it possible with arcpy to reproject single x,y coordinates without building a complete geometry object. For instance is it possible to do something like this input = [[-8081441,5685214], [-8081446,5685216], [-8081442,5685219], [-8081440,5685211], [-8081441,5685214]] output = [arcpy.A_Reproj_Fn((coord[0], coord[1]), source_SR, dest_SR) for coord in input] I have huge arrays of coordinates to reproject, but for performance issue I dont want to build a geometry object before reprojecting. Thank you for any suggestion! ... View more

Hi, I realize that arcgis server is creating a lot of locks on the geodatable SDE on oracle. The locks are the following: Object Name    Object Type    Lock Type     Lock Owner    Lock Mode 11442                Version           state              me                   shared It seems that a lock like this one is created for every running instance of the service. What is that kind of lock? How could it be created? What the Object Name 11442 is meaning? I can't find any info about this problem on google, so maybe someone here knows what it is about. Thank you for your help! ... View more

Is it possible to replace the default arcpy error message with a custom message using `arcpy.AddError(msg)` or else for a GP Service published into ArcGIS Server? if I use:     arcpy.AddError("This is my custom error message") My custom message only appears printed in the details. like this: (sorry its in french):     {        error : {            code: 400,            message: "Unable to complete operation.",            details: [                       "Erreur d’exécution de l’outil. AppLogin Job ID:                               jfe0aa728897644eb9344fa9fc7a48864 : This is my custom error message                           Échec de l’exécution de (AppLogin).                           Échec de l’exécution de (AppLogin)."             ]     } What I want instead its just:     {         error : {             code : 400,             message : "This is my custom error message"         }     }      ...

I want to publish a GP Service to ArcGIS Server without default input parameter. However, I also want that GP Service to return an error when no input parameter is provided. How could I do so? ArcGIS wont let met publish a GP Service that returns an error, and if I run it with a valid input value, it will be defined as the default value and I wont be able to remove it. ... View more

Let say you have a geoprocessing service made of a python script. This GP service is protected with token. It could be very useful to be able to retrieve the info of the user who made a request to this service. (username, fullname, role, email, etc...)   With the token security, you can disable or enable requests to a service, but in the GP service, different action could be made depending of the user who made the request.   For instance, imagine a GP service that allow editing some fields values in a table. It would be nice if we could allow edits on perticular rows depending of the user. Without the information about the user, everyone who has a token can edit all the rows. ... View more

I have published to arcgis server a python script that output a feature class. I would like to round coordinates of the REST output. I have tryed to use the XYResolution envrionement setting in the python script but it is ignored arcpy.env.XYResolution = "0 Meters" In the JSON output from the REST api, the geometry is not rounded like this       "geometry": {        "x": -7498445.5090999994,        "y": 6161009.2334999964       } Any idea why? ...
