I guess it all comes down how Esri interprets this paragraph: Embedding Python is similar to extending it, but not quite. The difference is that when you extend Python, the main program of the application is still the Python interpreter, while if you embed Python, the main program may have nothing to do with Python — instead, some parts of the application occasionally call the Python interpreter to run some Python code.

After some try and error I got this response:   {'addResults': [{'objectId': 1, 'uniqueId': 1, 'globalId': None, 'success': False, 'error': {'code': 1003, 'description': 'Operation rolled back.'}}, {'objectId': None, 'uniqueId': None, 'globalId': None, 'success': False, 'error': {'code': 1000, 'description': 'String or binary data would be truncated.\r\nThe statement has been terminated.'}}], 'updateResults': [], 'deleteResults': []}   One of the Google result for "1003 Operation rolled back." is: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/services-reference/enterprise/error-handling-with-sync-operations.htm Seems like the REST API returns 1003 for rollbacks.   Based on above response, I could do something like this:   def is_rolled_back(result): for element in result["addResults"]: if "error" in element and element["error"]["code"] == 1003: return False return True # example with adding records result = layer.edit_features(add=records, rollback_on_failure=True) if is_rolled_back(result): # do something   However, this is everything else than a satisfying solution. It's solely based on assumptions due to non-existing documentation. I don't know if the error code 1003 would always be the first element. As I said, all based on assumptions. If it is always the first element, above code can be simplified! Other ideas and inputs are very welcome and appreciated! ... View more

@Scott_Harris Thank you, it's a workaround. I just think the usability can be improved: There are two save buttons, and that one for saving the attributes table's field changes is even bigger, but the project's behaviour is that CTRL+S saves the project instead of data in the context the user is working at this very moment.   ...

Regarding the contextual nature of your idea: if it's going to ask you every time you use the CTRL+S (save project) shortcut and there are unsaved edits, why does it have to be contextual? @Scott_Harris  Personally, I would just want to use CTRL+S without the confirm dialog. I only added the confirmation dialog in my idea in case someone would argue that it would be a risk for those not aware of a context-relating saving behaviour and that way the user will be warned at least once until they check the checkbox. I so many times saved the project instead of the data. This is an issue when I just want to look something up (and for that you changed something in the project which is not intended to be saved). ... View more

Thank you. The script above is actually a simplified minimum (non) working example. The issue occurs with this very simple where clause (1=1) and with my actual where clause (fieldName='fieldText'). I am implementing a unit test for an ArcGIS for Python script. I was hoping that I don't have to delete all features so I could run tests asynchronously. But your suggestion could work as a workaround. It is very strange, why it does work for two of the layers (which have - by the way - exactly the same fields and settings) but not for the third one. ... View more

I am able to print a JSON string with   print(layer.properties)   (unfortunately I cannot post the whole string, there are confidential information, if you know a specific part which should be checked, let me know) However, the layer is not null. And it's actually the second of three layers. No exception thrown or other errors.   Result of   layer.delete_features(where="1=1")   is   {'deleteResults': [{'objectId': 1, 'uniqueId': 1, 'globalId': None, 'success': False, 'error': {'code': 1000, 'description': "Incorrect syntax near ')'."}}]}   It's just not making sense. ...

Drew Flater‌ thank you for your response. I'm currently using ArcGIS Pro 2.6 but the shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+Enter does not work for me. Any update on this feature? ... View more

Hi Scott Harris‌, I did not look into tasks yet which I am going to change this weekend. Thank you for this very useful tip! ... View more
