I am using ArcGIS Python API for ArcGIS Pro 1.3. The code is simple.
from arcgis.gis import *
gis = GIS("arcgis online", "account", "password")
data = r"zipped shapefile"
shape = gis.content.add({}, data)
shape.publish()
The add() step generates the error:
TimeoutError: [WinError 10060] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
I have HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables set to http://username:password@proxy:port
The environment settings were used successfully when I was using conda during installation.
