Greetings I am working on an ESRI Hosted site. I am trying to automate the ESRI token web page Generate Token form ie:   I used a Python POST: user_name = 'me' pass_word = 'my password' referer = 'https://company.cloud.esriuk.com' referer_name = 'https://company.cloud.esriuk.com/portal/sharing/rest/generateToken' token = '' expires = 90 ##data = {username=user_name,password=pass_word, client=referer, referer=url, expiration=90, f=json} requests.post(user=user_name, password=pass_word, client=referer, referer=referer_name, expiration=90, f=json) print("Generating token") I also tried: gis_server = GIS(url=f"server_base_url/web_adaptor/admin", token_url=f"server_base_url/web_adaptor/tokens/generateToken", username="admin_user", password="admin_password") print(token) I just get the process finished, no output?? Any suggestions? Regards, Clive   ... View more

Greetings, I am using the ESRI sample code to generate a token (Scripting with the ArcGIS REST API—Portal for ArcGIS | Documentation for ArcGIS Enterprise ), getting an expected type error?? Error is Expected type 'Optional[bytes]', got 'str' instead?? I updated the code for Python 3. ### Python 3.8 def generateToken(username, password, portalUrl😞 '''Retrieves a token to be used with API requests.''' portalUrl = myurl username = myuser password = mypassword parameters = urllib.parse.urlencode({'username' : username, 'password' : password, 'client' : 'referer', 'referer' : portalUrl, 'expiration' : 60, 'f' : 'json'}) print("Read parameters") response = urllib.request.urlopen(portalUrl + '/sharing/rest/generateToken?', parameters).read() print("response") try: jsonResponse = json.loads(response) if 'token' in jsonResponse: return jsonResponse['token'] elif 'error' in jsonResponse: print(jsonResponse['error']['message']) for detail in jsonResponse['error']['details']: print(detail) except ValueError: print('An unspecified error occurred.') ## End All I get is the error message: Expected type 'Optional[bytes]', got 'str' instead Appreciate any assistance and pointers.

Greetings, The fragment below works, cloning GIS content from Portal A to B. gis2.content.clone_items(data, copy_data=True, search_existing_items=True) However, the REST URL is copied across ie it has the wrong REST in Portal B.  I read the ESRI article: https://developers.arcgis.com/python/sample-notebooks/using-and-updating-gis-content/ The web map has a number of "values" eg: id, title, url, etc. So I tried to use the method in updating GIS content: gis2 = GIS(target_portal, username=admin, password=passw, verify_cert=False) print("LOGGED IN TARGET") ####MAP ID #map id search_result = gis2.content.get('4aa844d480704a7392a1bc0b992dee2d') print("MAP") display(search_result) ##search_result.layers #MAP SEARCH search_result_json = gis2.content.search('title:LQSP', item_type="*") #display(search_result_json) #CREATE MAP OBJECT wm_item = search_result_json[0] from arcgis.mapping import WebMap web_map_obj = WebMap(wm_item) ## display(web_map_obj) ### prints map #DISPLAY JSON print("WEB MAP OBJ") web_map_obj.layers print("DISPLAYS JSON: ") #display(web_map_obj.layers) for lyr in web_map_obj.layers: print(lyr.title + " " + lyr.url) The section to update the url value is below, this fails?? web_map_obj.update(url='<server>arcgis/rest/services/<map>/MapServer') I want to update the url from:  <DEV.gov.uk>arcgis/rest/services/<map>/MapServer TO: <TEST.gov.uk>arcgis/rest/services/<map>/MapServer I welcome any suggestions.
