I have a script from an ArcMap toolbox that updates text elements in the MXD as user input parameters below. I am trying to update this to work in Pro, but I am having trouble finding resources. I have tried updating certain codes in the second snippet below with text in bold.  Original: import arcpy mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT") # Defines Address Element Name SiteName = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0).upper() Address = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1).upper() PreplanID = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(2).upper() CrossStreet = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(3).upper() Floor = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(4).lower() # Autopopulate Remaining Text Elements from User Inputs and Cursor search for elm in arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements(mxd,"TEXT_ELEMENT"): if elm.name == 'SiteName': elm.text = SiteName elif elm.name == 'Address': elm.text = Address elif elm.name == 'PreplanID': elm.text = PreplanID elif elm.name == 'CrossStreet': elm.text = CrossStreet elif elm.name == 'Floor': elm.text = Floor   Failing update: import arcpy aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("CURRENT") # Defines Address Element Name SiteName = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0).upper() Address = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1).upper() PreplanID = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(2).upper() CrossStreet = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(3).upper() Floor = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(4).lower() # Autopopulate Remaining Text Elements from User Inputs and Cursor search for elm in arcpy.mp.ListLayoutElements(aprx,"TEXT_ELEMENT"): if elm.name == 'SiteName': elm.text = SiteName elif elm.name == 'Address': elm.text = Address elif elm.name == 'PreplanID': elm.text = PreplanID elif elm.name == 'CrossStreet': elm.text = CrossStreet elif elm.name == 'Floor': elm.text = Floor   ...

When exporting a feature dataset from one DB to another, the schema, features, and domains transfer over. However, attribute rules do not transfer over. Enabling attribute rules to be exported to XML schema and imported would be beneficial when migrating a schema.  ... View more

Trying to start/stop specific services. Using the article at How To: Stop GIS services using ArcGIS API for Python, I tried using the code but keep receiving an error message below posted code. I am running this script in IDLE (ArcGIS Pro). Using just IDLE for ArcGIS Desktop did not have the necessary modules.  from arcgis.gis import GIS import arcgis.gis.admin gis = GIS("https://url.to.com/portal", "Username", "Password", verify_cert=False) services = gis_servers.services.list() #To stop specific service(s) for service in services: for service in server.services.list(): if service.properties.serviceName == "SampleWorldCities": service.stop()‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Error Message:  Traceback (most recent call last): File "Z:\Temp\Brian\test.py", line 5, in <module> services = gis_servers.services.list() NameError: name 'gis_servers' is not defined ...

We have a routine that uses the SDE admin connection to disconnect users from several databases nightly. Randomly, this python routine will occasionally fail with the error message below. Connection information provided was for a non-administrative user There is not any more information provided by the reports. My first guess was a permission issue like this post https://community.esri.com/thread/89448 .  We are using a general SQL service account to run routines, but permissions should not explain why it fails randomly and is successful at other times.  ...
