I need to create .vtpk's of ESRI's topo basemap for offline use in an ArcGIS runtime application. In an ideal world I'd develop a script tool that takes an input county polygon and zooms to each feature geom and creates a topo basemap .vtpk for each feature geom.
The problem: the "arcpy.management.CreateVectorTilePackage()" GP tool spits this error when trying to process the topo basemap... "ERROR 001852: Layer type is not supported for vector tile packages."
The only other way I know how to create basemap .vtpk's is with the "Download Map" ribbon tool in Pro... but this process is manual.
The question: Is there a way to automate ESRI basemap .vtpk creation??
