arcgis.gis module

The gis module provides an information model for GIS hosted within ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise, serving as an entry point to the GIS. This module, the most important in the ArcGIS API for Python, provides functionality to manage (create, read, update and delete) GIS users, groups and content. The module allows for access to the GIS services using Python and is an invaluable tool in the API.

GIS

class arcgis.gis.GIS(url=None, username=None, password=None, key_file=None, cert_file=None, verify_cert=True, set_active=True, client_id=None, profile=None, **kwargs)

The GIS class is representative of a single ArcGIS Online organization or an ArcGIS Enterprise deployment. The GIS object provides helper objects to manage (search, create, retrieve) GIS resources such as content, users, and groups.

Additionally, the GIS object has properties to query its state, which is accessible using the properties attribute.

Note

The GIS provides a mapping widget that can be used in the Jupyter Notebook environment for visualizing GIS content as well as the results of your analysis. To create a new map, call the map method. IE11 is no longer supported. Please use the latest version of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, or Microsoft Edge.

The constructor constructs a GIS object given a url and user credentials to ArcGIS Online or an ArcGIS Enterprise portal. User credentials can be passed in using username/password pair, or key_file/cert_file pair (in case of PKI). Supports built-in users, LDAP, PKI, Integrated Windows Authentication (using NTLM and Kerberos) and Anonymous access.

If no url is provided, ArcGIS Online is used. If username/password or key/cert files are not provided, the currently logged-in user’s credentials (IWA) or anonymous access is used.

Persisted profiles for the GIS can be created by giving the GIS authorization credentials and specifying a profile name. The profile stores all of the authorization credentials (except the password) in the user’s home directory in an unencrypted config file named .arcgisprofile. The profile securely stores the password in an O.S. specific password manager through the keyring python module.

Note

Linux systems may need additional software installed and configured for proper security.

Once a profile has been saved, passing the profile parameter by itself uses the authorization credentials saved in the configuration file/password manager by that profile name. Multiple profiles can be created and used in parallel.

See Working with different authentication schemes in the ArcGIS API for Python guide for examples.

Parameter	Description
url	Optional string. If URL is None, then the URL will be ArcGIS Online. This should be a web address to either an ArcGIS Enterprise portal or to ArcGIS Online in the form: <scheme>://<fully_qualified_domain_name>/<web_adaptor>. An Enterprise example is formatted in the form: https://gis.example.com/portal
username	Optional string. The login user name (case-sensitive).
password	Optional string. If a username is provided, a password is expected. This is case-sensitive. If the password is not provided, the user is prompted in the interactive dialog.
key_file	Optional string. The file path to a user’s key certificate for PKI authentication
cert_file	Optional string. The file path to a user’s certificate file for PKI authentication. If a PFX or P12 certificate is used, a password is required. If a PEM file is used, the key_file is required.
verify_cert	Optional boolean. If a site has an invalid SSL certificate or is being accessed via the IP or hostname instead of the name on the certificate, set this value to False. This will ensure that all SSL certificate issues are ignored. The default is True. Warning Setting the value to False can be a security risk.
set_active	Optional boolean. The default is True. If True, the GIS object will be used as the default GIS object throughout the whole scripting session.
client_id	Optional string. Used for OAuth authentication. This is the client ID value.
profile	Optional string. the name of the profile that the user wishes to use to authenticate, if set, the identified profile will be used to login to the specified GIS.

In addition to explicitly named parameters, the GIS object supports optional key word arguments:

kwargs	Description
proxy_host	Optional string. The host name of the proxy server used to allow HTTP/S access in the network where the script is run. ex: 127.0.0.1
use_gen_token	Optional Boolean. The default is False. Uses generateToken login over OAuth2 login.
proxy_port	Optional integer. The proxy host port. The default is 80.
token	Optional string. This is the Enterprise token for built-in logins. This parameter is only honored if the username/password is None and the security for the site uses BUILT-IN security.
api_key	Optional string. This is a key generated by the developer site to allow for a limited subset of the REST API functionality.
trust_env	Optional Boolean. Trust environment settings for proxy configuration, default authentication and similar. If False the GIS class will ignore the netrc files defined on the system.
proxy	Optional Dictionary. If you need to use a proxy, you can configure individual requests with the proxy argument to any request method. See `Usage Exmaple 9: Using a Proxy` for example usage. Usage Example { “http” : “http://10.343.10.22:111”, “https” : “https://127.343.13.22:6443” }
expiration	Optional Integer. The default is 60 minutes. The expiration time for a given token. This is used for user provided tokens and API Keys.
validate_url	Optional Boolean. The default is False. A user can choose to validate the URL on an Item’s url.
mutual_authentication	Optional String. Mutual authentication is a security feature in which a client process must prove its identity to a service, and the service must prove its identity to the client, before any application traffic is transmitted over the client/service connection. REQUIRED - By default, the API will require mutual authentication from the server, and if a server emits a non-error response which cannot be authenticated. OPTIONAL - This will cause the API to attempt mutual authentication if the server advertises that it supports it, and cause a failure if authentication fails, but not if the server does not support it at all. DISABLED - Never attempts mutual authentication, this is not recommended.
force_preemptive	If you are using Kerberos authentication, it can be forced to preemptively initiate the Kerberos GSS exchange and present a Kerberos ticket on the initial request (and all subsequent). By default, authentication only occurs after a 401 Unauthorized response containing a Kerberos or Negotiate challenge is received from the origin server. This can cause mutual authentication failures for hosts that use a persistent connection (eg, Windows/WinRM), as no Kerberos challenges are sent after the initial auth handshake. This behavior can be altered by setting force_preemptive=True. The default is False
hostname_override	Optional String. If communicating with a host whose DNS name doesn’t match its kerberos hostname (eg, behind a content switch or load balancer), the hostname used for the Kerberos GSS exchange can be overridden by setting this value.
delegate	Optional bool. Kerberos supports credential delegation (GSS_C_DELEG_FLAG). To enable delegation of credentials to a server that requests delegation, pass delegate=True. Be careful to only allow delegation to servers you trust as they will be able to impersonate you using the delegated credentials.

Each item has a unique identifier and a well-known URL that is independent of the user owning the item. Additionally, each item can have associated binary or textual data that’s available via the item data resource. For example, an item of type Map Package returns the actual bits corresponding to the map package via the item data resource.

Items that have layers (eg FeatureLayerCollection items and ImageryLayer items) and tables have the dynamic layers and tables properties to get to the individual layers/tables in this item.

add_comment(comment)

The add_comment method adds a comment to an item.

Note

The add_comment method is only available only to authenticated users who have access to the item.

Parameter	Description
comment	Required string. Text to be added as a comment to a specific item.

Returns

Comment ID if successful, None if failure occurs.

# Usage Example

>>> item.add_comment("Detailed Comment on the Item")

add_relationship(rel_item, rel_type)

The add_relationship method adds a relationship from the current item to rel_item.

Note

Note: Relationships are not tied to an item. Instead, they are directional links from an origin item to a destination item and have a type. The type of the relationship defines the valid origin and destination item types as well as some rules. See Relationship types in REST API help for more information. Users don’t have to own the items they relate unless so defined by the rules of the relationship type.

Users can only delete relationships they create.

Relationships are deleted automatically if one of the two items is deleted.

Parameter	Description
rel_item	Required Item object corresponding to the related item.
rel_type	Required string. The type of the related item; is one of [‘Map2Service’, ‘WMA2Code’, ‘Map2FeatureCollection’, ‘MobileApp2Code’, ‘Service2Data’, ‘Service2Service’]. See Relationship Types in the REST API help for more information on this parameter.

Returns

# Usage Example

>>> item.add_relationship(reL_item=item2, rel_type='Map2FeatureCollection')
<True>

property app_info

The app_info property is a resource for accessing application information. If the parent item is registered using the register app operation, app_info returns information pertaining to the registered app. Every registered app gets an App ID and App Secret, which are titled client_id and client_secret, respectively, in the terminology of OAuth.

Returns

A Dictionary

property can_delete

Checks if the Item can be removed from the system.

Returns

bool

property comments

The comments property gets a list of comments for a given item.

property content_status

The content_status property states if an Item is authoritative or deprecated. This givens owners and administrators of Item the ability to warn users that they should be either this information or not.

Parameter	Description
value	Optional string or None. Defines if an Item is deprecated or authoritative. If a value of None is given, then the value will be reset. Allowed Values: authoritative, deprecated, or None

copy(title=None, tags=None, snippet=None, description=None, layers=None)

The copy method allows for the creation of an item that is derived from the current Item.

For layers, copy will create a new item that uses the URL as a reference. For non-layer based items, these will be copied and the exact same data will be provided.

If title, tags, snippet of description is not provided the values from item will be used. The copy method can be used in a variety of situations, such as:

1. Vector tile service sprite customization

2. Limiting feature service exposure

3. Sharing content by reference with groups

4. Creating backup items.

Parameter	Description
title	Optional string. The name of the new item.
tags	Optional list of string. Descriptive words that help in the searching and locating of the published information.
snippet	Optional string. A brief summary of the information being published.
description	Optional string. A long description of the Item being published.
layers	Optional list of integers. If you have a layer with multiple and you only want specific layers, an index can be provided those layers. If nothing is provided, all layers will be visible.

Returns

An Item object

**Usage Example**

>>> item.copy()
<Item title:"gisslideshow - Copy 94452b" type:Microsoft Powerpoint owner:geoguy>

>>> item.copy(title="GIS_Tutorial")
<Item title:"GIS_Tutorial" type:Microsoft Powerpoint owner:geoguy>

>>> item.copy()
<Item title:"NZTiles - Copy 021a06" type:Vector Tile Layer owner:geoguy>

copy_feature_layer_collection(service_name, layers=None, tables=None, folder=None, description=None, snippet=None, owner=None)

The copy_feature_layer_collection method allows users to copy existing Feature Layer Collections and select the layers/tables that the user wants in the service. It is quite similar to the copy method, but only copies the selected Feature Layer Collections.

Parameter	Description
service_name	Required string. It is the name of the service.
layers	Optional list/string. This is a either a list of integers or a comma seperated list of integers as a string. Each index value represents a layer in the feature layer collection.
tables	Optional list/string. This is a either a list of integers or a comma seperated list of integers as a string. Each index value represents a table in the feature layer collection.
folder	Optional string. This is the name of the folder to place in. The default is None, which means the root folder.
description	Optional string. This is the Item description of the service.
snippet	Optional string. This is the Item’s snippet of the service. It is no longer than 250 characters.
owner	Optional string/User. The default is the current user, but if you want the service to be owned by another user, pass in this value.

Returns

If successful, returns an Item object. Otherwise, returns None on failure.

# Usage Example

>>> item.copy_feature_layer_collection(service_name="service_name", layers="1,4,5,8")

copy_item(*, title=None, tags=None, folder=None, include_resources=False, include_private=False)

The copy_item operation creates a new Item that is a copy of the original Item on the server side. It is quite similar to the copy method, but only creates a new Item.

The copy_item method is allowed for the following:

1. Original item being copied is owned by the user invoking the copy operation.

2. The User object is an administrator.

3. The User object has itemControl update capability.

Additionally, there are several caveats to the copy_item method. First, the new item created by the copy_item operation will have a system generated itemID. Additionally, hosted services are copied as reference only. Reserved keywords, ratings, views, comments and listing properties are reset for the new item. Sharing access of the original item is not preserved and sharing access of new item is set to private. Lastly, relationships and dependencies of the original item are not maintained in the new item.

Note

This method is only available on ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 or higher

Returns

An Item object

create_thumbnail(update=True)

The create_thumbnail method creates a Thumbnail for a feature service portal item using the service’s symbology and the print service registered for the enterprise.

Parameter	Description
title	Required string. The name of the new service.
min_scale	Required float. The smallest scale at which to view data.
max_scale	Required float. The largest scale at which to view data.
cache_info	Optional dictionary. If not none, administrator provides the tile cache info for the service. The default is the ArcGIS Online scheme.
build_cache	Optional boolean. Default is False; if True, the cache will be built at publishing time. This will increase the time it takes to publish the service.

Returns

The Item object if successfully added, None if unsuccessful.

# Usage Example

>>> item.create_tile_service(title="SeasideHeightsNJTiles", min_scale= 70000.0,max_scale=80000.0)

delete(force=False, dry_run=False)

The delete method deletes the item. If the item is unable to be deleted , a RuntimeException is raised. To know if you can safely delete the item, use the optional parameter ‘dry_run’ in order to test the operation without actually deleting the item.

Parameter	Description
force	Optional boolean. Available in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6.1 and higher. Force deletion is applicable only to items that were orphaned when a server federated to the ArcGIS Enterprise was removed accidentally before properly unfederating it. When called on other items, it has no effect.
dry_run	Optional boolean. Available in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6.1 and higher.If True, checks if the item can be safely deleted and gives you back either a dictionary with details. If dependent items are preventing deletion, a list of such Item objects are provided.

Returns

A boolean indicating success (True), or failure (False). When dry_run is used, a dictionary containing details of the item is returned.

USAGE EXAMPLE: Successful deletion of an item

item1 = gis.content.get('itemId12345')
item1.delete()

>> True

USAGE EXAMPLE: Failed deletion of an item

item1 = gis.content.get('itemId12345')
item1.delete()

>> RuntimeError: Unable to delete item. This service item has a related Service item
>> (Error Code: 400)

USAGE EXAMPLE: Dry run to check deletion of an item

item1 = gis.content.get('itemId12345abcde')
item1.delete(dry_run=True)

>> {'can_delete': False,
>> 'details': {'code': 400,
>> 'message': 'Unable to delete item. This service item has a related Service item',
>> 'offending_items': [<Item title:"Chicago_accidents_WFS" type:WFS owner:sharing1>]}}

Note

During the dry run, if you receive a list of offending items, attempt to delete them first before deleting the current item. You can in turn call dry_run on those items to ensure they can be deleted safely.

delete_info(file)

This is available for all items and allows you to delete an individual file from an item’s esriinfo folder.

Parameter	Description
file	Required String. The file to be deleted.

delete_rating()

publish(publish_parameters=None, address_fields=None, output_type=None, overwrite=False, file_type=None, build_initial_cache=False, item_id=None, geocode_service=None)

The publishes method is used to publish a hosted service based on an existing source item (this item). Publishers can then create feature, tiled map, vector tile and scene services. Feature services can be created from input files of various types, including

1. csv files

2. shapefiles

3. service definition files

4. feature collection files

5. file geodatabase files

CSV files that contain location fields (i.e. address fields or XY fields) are spatially enabled during the process of publishing. Shapefiles and file geodatabases should be packaged as *.zip files.

Tiled map services can be created from service definition (*.sd) files, tile packages, and existing feature services.

Vector tile services can be created from vector tile package (*.vtpk) files.

Scene services can be created from scene layer package (*.spk, *.slpk) files.

Service definitions are authored in ArcGIS Pro or ArcGIS Desktop and contain both the cartographic definition for a map as well as its packaged data together with the definition of the geo-service to be created.

Note

ArcGIS does not permit overwriting if you published multiple hosted feature layers from the same data item.

Note

ArcGIS for Enterprise for Kubernetes does not support publishing service definition file generated by ArcMap.

Parameter	Description
publish_parameters	Optional dictionary. containing publish instructions and customizations. Cannot be combined with overwrite. See Publish Item in the ArcGIS REST API for details.
address_fields	Optional dictionary. containing mapping of df columns to address fields,
output_type	Optional string. Only used when a feature service is published as a tile service.
overwrite	Optional boolean. If True, the hosted feature service is overwritten. Only available in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5+ and ArcGIS Online.
file_type	Optional string. Some formats are not automatically detected, when this occurs, the file_type can be specified: serviceDefinition, shapefile, csv, excel, tilePackage, featureService, featureCollection, fileGeodatabase, geojson, scenepackage, vectortilepackage, imageCollection, mapService, and sqliteGeodatabase are valid entries. This is an optional parameter.
build_initial_cache	Optional boolean. The boolean value (default False), if true and applicable for the file_type, the value will built cache for the service.
item_id	Optional string. Available in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1+. Not available in ArcGIS Online. This parameter allows the desired item id to be specified during creation which can be useful for cloning and automated content creation scenarios. The specified id must be a 32 character GUID string without any special characters. If the item_id is already being used, an error will be raised during the publish process.
geocode_service	Optional Geocoder. When publishing a table of data, an optional Geocoder can be supplied in order to specify which service geocodes the information. If no geocoder is given, the first registered Geocoder is used.

Returns

An Item object corresponding to the published web layer.

# Publishing a Hosted Table Example

>>> csv_item = gis.content.get('<csv item id>')
>>> analyzed = gis.content.analyze(item=csv_item)
>>> publish_parameters = analyzed['publishParameters']
>>> publish_parameters['name'] = 'AVeryUniqueName' # this needs to be updated
>>> publish_parameters['locationType'] = None # this makes it a hosted table
>>> published_item = csv_item.publish(publish_parameters)

# Publishing a Tile Service Example

>>> item.publish(address_fields= { "CountryCode" : "Country"},
>>>               output_type="Tiles",
>>>               file_type="CSV",

usage(date_range='7D', as_df=True)

Note

The usage method is available for ArcGIS Online Only.

For item owners and administrators, the usage method provides usage details about an item that help you gauge its popularity. Usage details show how many times the item has been used for the time period you select. Historical usage information is available for the past year. Depending on the item type, usage details can include the number of views, requests, or downloads, and the average number of views, requests, or downloads per day.

Views refers to the number of times the item has been viewed or opened. For maps, scenes, non-hosted layers, and web apps, the view count is increased by one when you open the item page or open the item in Map Viewer. For example, if you opened the item page for a map image layer and clicked Open in Map Viewer, the count would increase by two. For other items such as mobile apps, KML, and so on, the view count is increased by one when you open the item; the count does not increase when you open the item details page.

For hosted web layers (feature, tile, and scene), the number of requests is provided instead of views. Requests refers to the number of times a request is made for the data within the layer. For example, someone might open an app that contains a hosted feature layer. Opening the app counts as one view for the application, but multiple requests may be necessary to draw all the features in the hosted layer and are counted as such.

For downloadable file item types such as CSV, SHP, and so on, the number of downloads is displayed. For registered apps, the Usage tab also displays the number of times users have logged in to the app. Apps that allow access to subscriber content through the organization subscription show usage by credits. Additionally, the time frame for the credit usage reporting period can be changed.

Parameter	Description
date_range	Optional string. The default is 7d. This is the period to query usage for a given item. 24H Past 24 hours 7D Past 7 days (default) 14D Past 14 days 30D Past 30 days 60D Past 60 days 6M Past 6 months 1Y Past 12 months (date1,date2) Tuple of 2 datetime objects defining custom date range
as_df	Optional boolean. Returns a Pandas DataFrame when True, returns data as a dictionary when False

Returns

Pandas DataFrame or Dictionary

Layer

class arcgis.gis.Layer(url, gis=None)

Bases: arcgis.gis._GISResource

The Layer class is a primary concept for working with data in a GIS.

Users create, import, export, analyze, edit, and visualize layers.

Layers can be added to and visualized using maps. They act as inputs to and outputs from analysis tools.

Layers are created by publishing data to a GIS, and are exposed as a broader resource (Item) in the GIS. Layer objects can be obtained through the layers attribute on layer Item objects in the GIS.

classmethod fromitem(item, index=0)

The fromitem method returns the layer at the specified index from a layer Item object.

Parameter	Description
item	Required string. An item ID representing a layer.
index	Optional int. The index of the layer amongst the item’s layers

Returns

The layer at the specified index.

# Usage Example

>>> layer.fromitem(item="9311d21a9a2047d19c0faaebd6f2cca6", index=3)

GroupApplication

class arcgis.gis.GroupApplication(url, gis, **kwargs)

Bases: object

The GroupApplication class represents a single group application on the GIS, either ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise.

accept()

The accept method is used to manage a User application. When a User applies to join a Group, a GroupApplication object is created. Group administrators choose to accept this application using the accept operation. This operation adds the applying user to the group then deletes the application. This operation also creates a notification for the user indicating that the user’s group application was accepted. This method is very similar to the decline method, which declines rather than accepts the application to join a group.

Note

The accept method is only available to group owners and administrators.

# Usage Example

>>> group1 = gis.groups.get('name')
>>> group_app = group1.applications[0]
>>> group_app.accept()

Returns

A boolean indicating success (True) or failure (False).

decline()

The decline method is used to manage a User application. When a User asks to join a Group, a GroupApplication object is created. Group administrators choose to decline this application using the decline operation. This operation deletes the application and creates a notification for the user indicating that the user’s group application was declined. This method is very similar to the accept method, which accepts rather than declines the application to join a group.

Note

The decline method is only available to group owners and administrators.

# Usage Example

>>> group_app = group.applications[0]
>>> groupapplication.decline()

Returns

A boolean indicating success (True) or failure (False).

property properties

The properties operation retrevies the properties of the GroupApplication.

CategorySchemaManager

class arcgis.gis.CategorySchemaManager(base_url, gis=None)

The CategorySchemaHelper class is for managing category schemas. An instance of this class, called categories, is available as a property in the ContentManager and the Group class. See categories and categories for more information.

Note

This class is not created by users directly.

assign_to_items(items)

The assign_to_items function adds group content categories to the portal items specified in the items argument (see below). For assigning categories to items in a group, you must be the group owner/manager. For assigning organization content categories on items, you must be the item owner or an administrator who has the portal:admin:updateItems privilege.

Note

A maximum of 100 items can be bulk updated per request.

Parameter	Description
items	Required List. A JSON array of item objects. Each is specified with the item ID that consists of a categories object. categories is specified with an array that lists all content categories to update on the item, each with full hierarchical path prefixed with /. Each item can be categorized to a maximum of 20 categories.

Returns

A dict of item_id : status, with status being whether the content categories were successfully added. If the status is unsuccessfully updated, a message will provide information to help you debug the issue.

# Usage Example

>>> gis.content.categories.assign_to_items(items = [{"2678d3002eea4e4a825e3bdf10016e61": {
                                                     "categories": ["/Categories/Geology",
                                                                    "/Categories/Elevation"]}},
                                                    {"c3ad4ed8bcf04d619537cfe252a1760d": {
                                                     "categories": ["/Categories/Geology",
                                                                    "/Categories/Land cover/Forest/Deciduous Forest"]}},
                                                     {"9ced00fdce3e4b20bb4b05155acbe817": {
                                                     "categories": []}}])

delete()

The delete function allows group owner or managers to remove the category schema set on a group.

# Usage Example

>>> gis.content.categories.delete()

Returns

A boolean indicating success (True), or failure (False)

property properties

The properties method retrieves the properties of the schema.

property schema

The schema property allows group owners/managers to manage the content categories for a group. These content categories are a hierarchical set of classes to help organize and browse group content.

Note

Each group can have a maximum of 5 category trees with each category schema can have up to 4 hierarchical levels. The maximum number of categories a group can have in total is 200 with each category of less than 100 characters title and 300 characters description.

When getting schema, returns the content category schema set on a group.

When setting schema, will update the group category schema based on the dict this property is set to. See below.

Parameter	Description
categories	Required Dict. A category schema object consists of an array of dict objects representing top level categories. Each object has title, description and categories properties where categories consists of an array of objects with each having the same properties and represents the descendant categories or subcategories and so on.

ContentManager

class arcgis.gis.ContentManager(gis)

The ContentManager class is a helper class for managing content in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise. An instance of this class, called ‘content’, is available as a property of the GIS object. Users call methods on this ‘content’ object to manipulate (create, get, search, etc) items. See content for more information.

Note

The class is not created by the user.

add(item_properties, data=None, thumbnail=None, metadata=None, owner=None, folder=None, item_id=None, **kwargs)

The add method adds content to the GIS by creating an Item.

Note

Content can be a file (such as a service definition, shapefile, CSV, layer package, file geodatabase, geoprocessing package, map package) or it can be a URL (to an ArcGIS Server service, WMS service, or an application).

If you are uploading a package or other file, provide a path or URL to the file in the data argument.

From a technical perspective, none of the item_properties (see table below Key:Value Dictionary Options for Argument item_properties) are required. However, it is strongly recommended that arguments title, type, typeKeywords, tags, snippet, and description be provided.

advanced_search(query, return_count=False, max_items=100, bbox=None, categories=None, category_filter=None, start=1, sort_field='title', sort_order='asc', count_fields=None, count_size=None, as_dict=False)

The advanced_search method allows the ability to fully customize the search experience. The advanced_search method allows users to control of the finer grained parameters not exposed by the ContentManager method. Additionally, it allows for the manual paging of information and how the data is returned.

Parameter	Description
query	Required String. The search query. When the search filters contain two or more clauses, the recommended schema is to have clauses separated by blank, or AND, e.g. #Usage Example: >>> gis.content.advanced_search(query='owner:USERNAME type:map') # or >>> gis.content.advanced_search(query='type:map AND owner:USERNAME') Warning When the clauses are separated by comma, the filtering condition for owner should not be placed at the first position, e.g. >>> gis.content.advanced_search(query='type:map, owner:USERNAME') is allowed, while >>> gis.content.advanced_search(query='owner:USERNAME, type:map') is not. For more information, please check Users, groups and items.
bbox	Optional String/List. This is the xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax bounding box to limit the search in. Items like documents do not have bounding boxes and will not be included in the search.
categories	Optional String. A comma separated list of up to 8 org content categories to search items. Exact full path of each category is required, OR relationship between the categories specified. Each request allows a maximum of 8 categories parameters with AND relationship between the different categories parameters called.
category_filters	Optional String. A comma separated list of up to 3 category terms to search items that have matching categories. Up to 2 category_filters parameter are allowed per request. It can not be used together with categories to search in a request.
start	Optional Int. The starting position to search from. This is only required if paging is needed.
sort_field	Optional String. Responses from the search operation can be sorted on various fields. avgrating is the default.
sort_order	Optional String. The sequence into which a collection of records are arranged after they have been sorted. The allowed values are: asc for ascending and desc for descending.
count_fields	Optional String. A comma separated list of fields to count. Maximum count fields allowed per request is 3. Supported count fields: tags, type, access, contentstatus, and categories.
count_size	Optional Int. The maximum number of field values to count for each count_fields. The default value is None, and maximum size allowed is 200.
as_dict	Required Boolean. If True, the results comes back as a dictionary. The result of the method will always be a dictionary but the results key in the dictionary will be changed if set to False.

Returns

Depends on the inputs:

1. Dictionary for a standard search

2. `return_count`=True an integer is returned

3. count_fields is specified a list of dicts for each field specified

# Usage Example

>>> gis.content.advanced_search(query ="Hurricanes", categories = "Hurricanes, USA, Natural Disasters",
>>>                                sort_order = "asc", count_fields = "tags, type", as_dict = True)

analyze(url=None, item=None, file_path=None, text=None, file_type=None, source_locale='en', geocoding_service=None, location_type=None, source_country='world', country_hint=None, enable_global_geocoding=None)

The analyze method helps a client analyze a CSV or Excel file (.xlsx, .xls) prior to publishing or generating features using the Publish or Generate operation, respectively.

analyze returns information about the file including the fields present as well as sample records. analyze attempts to detect the presence of location fields that may be present as either X,Y fields or address fields.

analyze packages its result so that publishParameters within the JSON response contains information that can be passed back to the server in a subsequent call to Publish or Generate. The publishParameters subobject contains properties that describe the resulting layer after publishing, including its fields, the desired renderer, and so on. analyze will suggest defaults for the renderer.

In a typical workflow, the client will present portions of the analyze results to the user for editing before making the call to generate or publish.

Note

The maximum upload size for shapefiles is now 2 Mb and 10 Mb for all other supported file types.

Note

If the file to be analyzed currently exists in the portal as an item, callers can pass in its itemId. Callers can also directly post the file. In this case, the request must be a multipart post request pursuant to IETF RFC1867. The third option for text files is to pass the text in as the value of the text parameter.

Parameter	Description
url	Optional string. The URL of the csv file.
item	Optional string/Item . The ID or Item of the item to be analyzed.
file_path	Optional string. The file to be analyzed.

can_reassign(items, user)

Checks if a list[Item] can be reassigned to a particular user. The operation checks whether the items owned by one user can be successfully reassigned to a specified user before performing the reassign operation. Users assigned the default administrator role, or a custom role with administrative privileges, can perform this operation. The item owner can also use this operation; if the item owner that performs this operation is not a default administrator, or assigned a custom role with administrative privileges, they must have the portal:user:reassignItems privilege assigned to them to transfer content to another user.

Parameter	Description
items	Required list[Item]. A list of Items. The maximum number of items that can be transferred at one time is 100.
user	Required User. The user the items will be reassigned to. For a user to be eligible to receive transferred content, they must meet the following requirements: The user must be assigned the portal:user:receiveItems privilege to receive the transferred content. The user must have a user type that allows them to own content. If the items being transferred to the user are shared with a group, the user receiving the items must be a member of the group. If the group is a view-only group, the user receiving the items must be the group owner or a group manager. If the above requirements are not met, an error response will be returned.

Returns

list[dict[str, Any]]

property categories

The categories property is category manager for an Item object. See CategorySchemaManager.

check_url(url)

To verify a URL is accessible by the Organization, provide the url and the system will check if the location is valid and reachable. This method is useful when checking service URLs or validating that URLs can be reached.

Returns

Dict[str, Any]

clone_items(items, folder=None, item_extent=None, use_org_basemap=False, copy_data=True, copy_global_ids=False, search_existing_items=True, item_mapping=None, group_mapping=None, owner=None, preserve_item_id=False, **kwargs)

The clone_items method is used to clone content to the GIS by creating new Item objects.

Note

Cloning an item will create a copy of the item and for certain item types a copy of the item dependencies in the GIS.

For example, a web application created using Web AppBuilder or a Configurable App Template which is built from a web map that references one or more hosted feature layers. This function will clone all of these items to the GIS and swizzle the paths in the web map and web application to point to the new layers.

Note

The actions in the example above create an exact copy of the application, map, and layers in the GIS.

Parameter	Description
items	Required list. Collection of Item objects to clone.
folder	Optional string. Name of the folder where placing item.
item_extent	Optional Envelope. Extent set for any cloned items. Default is None, extent will remain unchanged. Spatial reference of the envelope will be used for any cloned feature layers.
use_org_basemap	Optional boolean. Indicating whether the basemap in any cloned web maps should be updated to the organizations default basemap. Default is False, basemap will not change.
copy_data	Optional boolean. If False, the data is put by reference rather than by copy. Default is True, data will be copied. This creates a Hosted Feature Collection or Feature Layer.
copy_global_ids	Optional boolean. Assumes previous parameter is set to True. If True, features copied will preserve their global IDs. Default is False
search_existing_items	Optional boolean. Indicating whether items that have already been cloned should be searched for in the GIS and reused rather than cloned again.
item_mapping	Optional dictionary. Can be used to associate an item id in the source GIS (key) to an item id in the target GIS (value). The target item will be used rather than cloning the source item.
group_mapping	Optional dictionary. Can be used to associate a group id in the source GIS (key) to a group id in the target GIS (value). The target group will be used rather than cloning the source group.
owner	Optional string. Defaults to the logged in user.
preserve_item_id	Optional Boolean. When true and the destination GIS is not ArcGIS Online, the clone item will attempt to keep the same item ids for the items if available. ArcGIS Enterprise must be 10.9+.

Returns

A list of Item objects created during the clone.

# Usage Example
>>> gis.content.clone_items(items= ["item1", "item2", "item3", "item4", "item5"],
                            folder ="/", owner = 'User1234')

replace_service(replace_item, new_item, replaced_service_name=None, replace_metadata=False)

The replace_service operation allows you to replace your production vector tile layers with staging ones. This operation allows you to perform quality control on a staging tile layer and to then replace the production tile layer with the staging with minimal downtime. This operation has the option to keep a backup of the production tile layer.

Note

This functionality is only available for hosted vector tile layers, hosted tile layers and hosted scene layers based on packages. If you are looking to clone services, use the clone_items method instead.

The workflow for the replace_service method is as follows:

1. Publish the staging service to the same system as the production service. Both services are active at the same time. Share the staging service with a smaller set of users and QA the staging service.

2. The item properties (ex: thumbnail, iteminfo, metadata) of the production item will be preserved. If you need to update them use the Item.update() method.

3. Call the replace_service operation. The service running on the hosting server gets replaced (for example, its cache).

Note

It is the responsibility of the user to ensure both services are functionally equivalent for clients consuming them. For example, when replacing a hosted feature service, ensure the new service is constructed with the anticipated layers and fields for its client application.

If you want to retain the replaced production service, for example, to keep an archive of the evolution of the service you can do so by omitting a value for “Replaced Service Name” . If replaced service name is not provided, the production service being replaced will be archived with a time stamp when replace service was executed. You can provide any name for the replaced service as long as it is not pre-existing on your portal content.

Parameter	Description
replace_item	Required Item or Item’s Id as string. The service to be replaced
new_item	Required Item or Item’s Id as string. The replacement service.
replaced_service_name	Optional string. The name of the replacement service.
replace_metadata	Optional Boolean. When set to True, the item info {“thumbnail”, “tag”, “description”, “summary”} of the current service is updated to that of the replacement service. The Credits, Terms of use, and Created from details will not be replaced. This option is set to False by default.

Returns

A boolean indicating success (True), or failure (False)

# Usage Example
>>> gis.content.replace_service(replace_item="9311d21a9a2047d19c0faaebd6f2cca6",
                                new_item = "420554d21a9a2047d19c0faaebd6f2cca4")

search(query, item_type=None, sort_field='avgRating', sort_order='desc', max_items=10, outside_org=False, categories=None, category_filters=None)

The search method searches for portal items.

Note

A few things that will be helpful to know…

1. The query syntax has many features that can’t be adequately described here. Please see the ArcGIS REST API Search Reference for full details on search engine used with this method.

2. Most of the time when searching for items, you’ll want to search within your organization in ArcGIS Online or within your Portal. As a convenience, the method automatically appends your organization id to the query by default. If you want content from outside your organization set outside_org to True.

Parameter	Description
query	Required string. A query string. See notes above. When the search filters contain two or more clauses, the recommended schema is to have clauses separated by blank, or AND, e.g. Usage Example gis.content.search(query=’owner:USERNAME type:map’) # or gis.content.search(query=’type:map AND owner:USERNAME’) When the clauses are separated by comma, the filtering condition for owner should not be placed at the first position, e.g. gis.content.search(query=’type:map, owner:USERNAME’) is recommended, while gis.content.search(query=’owner:USERNAME, type:map’) is not.
item_type	Optional string. The type of item to search. See Items and item types for comprehensive list of values (the type column).
sort_field	Optional string. Valid values can be title, uploaded, type, owner, modified, avgRating, numRatings, numComments, and numViews.
sort_order	Optional string. Valid values are asc or desc.
max_items	Optional integer. Maximum number of items returned, default is 10.
outside_org	Optional boolean. Controls whether to search outside your org (default is False, do not search ourside your org).
categories	Optional string or list. A string of category values.
category_filters	Optional string. A comma separated list of up to 3 category terms to search items that have matching categories. Up to 2 category_filters parameter are allowed per request. It can not be used together with categories to search in a request.

Returns

A list of items objects matching the specified query.

# Usage Example

>>> gis.content.search(query ="Hurricanes", categories = "Hurricanes, USA, Natural Disasters",
>>>                    item_type = "Feature Collection")

share_items(items, everyone=False, org=False, groups=None, allow_members_to_edit=False)

The shares_items method shares a batch of items with everyone, members of the organization, or specified list of Group. A User can only share items with groups to which they belong. This method is quite similar to the unshare_items method, which achieves the exact opposite of share_items.

Parameter	Description
items	Required List. A list of Item or item ids to modify sharing on.
everyone	Optional boolean. Default is False, don’t share with everyone.
org	Optional boolean. Default is False, don’t share with the organization.
groups	Optional list of group names as strings, or a list of arcgis.gis.Group objects, or a comma-separated list of group IDs.
allow_members_to_edit	Optional boolean. Default is False, to allow item to be shared with groups that allow shared update

Returns

A dictionary of shared Item objects

# Usage Example

>>> gis.content.share_items(items=[item1, item2, item3], everyone=True, org=True)

unshare_items(items, groups=None, everyone=None, org=None)

The unshare_items methodUnshares a batch of items with the specified list of groups, everyone, or organization. This method is quite similar to the share_items method, which achieves the exact opposite of unshare_items.

Note

Each item’s current sharing will be overwritten with this method.

Parameter	Description
items	Required List. A list of Item or item ids to modify sharing on.
everyone	Required Boolean. If provided, the everyone sharing property will be updated. True means it will share the items with anyone. False means the item will not be shared with all users.
org	Required Boolean. A true value means that the items will be shared with all members of the organization. A false value means that the item will not be shared with all organization users.
groups	Required list of group names as strings, or a list of Group objects, or a list of group IDs.

Returns

A dictionary of unshared Item objects

# Usage Example

>>> gis.content.share_items(items=[item1, item2, item3], everyone=True, org=True,
                            groups = ["Developers", "Engineers", "GIS_Analysts"])

UserManager

class arcgis.gis.UserManager(gis)

Bases: object

The UserManager class is a helper class for managing GIS users. This class is not created by users directly. An instance of this class, called ‘users’, is available as a property of the Gis object. Users call methods on this ‘users’ object to manipulate (create, get, search, etc) users.

advanced_search(query, return_count=False, max_users=10, start=1, sort_field='username', sort_order='asc', as_dict=False)

The advanced_search method allows for the full control of the query operations by any given user. The searches are performed against a high performance index that indexes the most popular fields of an user. See the Search reference page for information on the fields and the syntax of the query. The advanced_search method is quite similar to the search method, which is less refined.

The search index is updated whenever users is added, updated, or deleted. There can be a lag between the time that the user is updated and the time when it’s reflected in the search results.

Note

The results of a search only contain items that the user has permission to access.

Parameter	Description
query	Required String. The search query. When the search filters contain two or more clauses, the recommended schema is to have clauses separated by blank, or AND, e.g. Usage Example gis.users.advanced_search(query=’owner:USERNAME type:map’) # or gis.users.advanced_search(query=’type:map AND owner:USERNAME’) When the clauses are separated by comma, the filtering condition for owner should not be placed at the first position, e.g. gis.users.advanced_search(query=’type:map, owner:USERNAME’) is allowed, while gis.users.advanced_search(query=’owner:USERNAME, type:map’) is not. For more, please check https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/users-groups-and-items/search-reference.htm
return_count	Optional Boolean. If True, the number of users found by the query string is returned.
max_users	Optional Integer. Limits the total number of users returned in a a query. The default is 10 users. If all users is needed, -1 should be used.
start	Optional Int. The starting position to search from. This is only required if paging is needed.
sort_field	Optional String. Responses from the search operation can be sorted on various fields. username is the default.
sort_order	Optional String. The sequence into which a collection of records are arranged after they have been sorted. The allowed values are: asc for ascending and desc for descending.
as_dict	Required Boolean. If True, the results comes back as a dictionary. The result of the method will always be a dictionary but the results key in the dictionary will be changed if set to False.

Returns

A dictionary if return_count is False, else an integer

# Usage Example

>>> gis.users.advanced_search(query ="1234", sort_field = "username", max_users=20, as_dict=False)

When this property is False, or not set at all, copying data to the site when publishing services from a client application is allowed. This is the default behavior. When this property is True, the client application is not allowed to copy data to the site when publishing. Rather, the publisher is required to register data items through which the service being published can reference data.

Parameter	Description
value	Required bool. Values: True | False .. note: If you specify the property as ``True``, users will not be able to publish ``geoprocessing services`` and ``geocode services`` from composite locators.

The validate method validates all items in the Datastore. In order for a data item to be registered and used successfully within the GIS’s data store, you need to make sure that the path (for file shares) or connection string (for databases) is accessible to every server node in the site. To validate all registered data items all at once, you can invoke this operation.

Returns

A boolean indicating successful validation (True), or failed validation (False)

publish_layers(item, srv_config, server_id, *, folder=None, server_folder=None, sync_metadata=None, use_config=None, future=False)

The publish_layers operation publishes, or syncs, the datasets from a database data store Item. This results in at least one layer per dataset.

Note

When this operation is called for the first time, an argument for every parameter must be provided. On subsequent calls, this method will synchronize the datasets in the data store with the layers creted in the Enterprise, which includes both publishing layers from newly added datasets and removing layers for datasets no longer found in the data store.

Parameter	Description
item	Required Item. The data store Item holding the content to publish.
srv_config	Required Dict. The JSON that will be used as a template for all the services that will be published or synced. This JSON can be used to change the properties of the output map and feature services. Note Only map service configurations with feature services enabled are supported by this parameter.
server_id	Required String. The serverId that the datasets will be published to. Note Use gis.admin.federation.servers to get the id values for individual servers federated with the Enterprise portal.
folder	Required String. The folder to which the datasets will be published. Note This folder must exist in the Enteprise portal.
server_folder	Required String. The name of the server folder. Note If this folder does not exist, the method will create it.
sync_metadata	Optional bool. Determines if item info details are updated using the metadata of the source dataset when a sync is performed. The default is false.
use_config	Optional bool. When true, the new srv_config will be applied to all layers.
future	Optional Boolean. If False, the value is returned, else a StatusJob is returned.

Returns

Boolean when future=False else a StatusJob object

The refresh_server method updates the server with information that changed in the data store. See Manage data store items for more information.

Note

After a data store Item has been registered, there may be times in which the registration information may be changed. When changes like these occur, the server will need to be updated with the newly configured information so that your users will still be able to access the data store item without interruption.

Warning

This operation can only be performed after the data store information has been updated.

Parameter	Description
item	Required data store Item or item id (as string). The data store to register with the server. Note that a data store can be registered on multiple servers.
server_id	Required String. The unique id of the server you want to register the datastore with.

# Usage Example
>>> portal_ds = gis.datastore
>>>
>>> ds_item = gis.content.search("*", item_type="Data Store")[0]

>>>            if s["serverRole"] == "HOSTING_SERVER][0]
>>>
>>> portal_ds.refresh_server(item = ds_item, server_id = host_id)

Returns

A boolean indicating success (True), or failure (False)

register(item, server_id, bind=False)

ViewManager

class arcgis.gis.ViewManager(item)

Bases: object

A helper class to work with hosted feature layer views created from items whose type property value is feature service.

This class is not meant to be created directly, but instead returned from the view_manager property on an Item.

create(name, spatial_reference=None, extent=None, allow_schema_changes=True, updateable=True, capabilities='Query', view_layers=None, view_tables=None, *, description=None, tags=None, snippet=None, overwrite=None, set_item_id=None, preserve_layer_ids=False)

Creates a view of an existing feature service Item. You can create a view if you need a different view of the data represented by a hosted feature layer. For example, you want to apply different editor settings, styles or filters or define which features or fields are available, or share the data to different groups than the hosted feature layer.

When you create a feature layer view, a new hosted feature layer Item is added to your content. This new layer is a view of the data in the hosted feature layer, which means updates made to the data appear in the hosted feature layer and all of its hosted feature layer views. However, since the view is a separate layer, you can change properties and settings on this item separately from the hosted feature layer from which it is created.

For example, you can allow members of your organization to edit the hosted feature layer but share a read-only feature layer view with the public.

See Create hosted feature layer views to learn more details.

Parameter	Description
name	Required string. Name of the new view item
spatial_reference	Optional dict. Specify the spatial reference of the view
extent	Optional dict. Specify the extent of the view
allow_schema_changes	Optional bool. Default is True. Determines if a view can alter a service’s schema.
updateable	Optional bool. Default is True. Determines if view can update values
capabilities	Optional string. Specify capabilities as a comma separated string. For example “Query, Update, Delete”. Default is ‘Query’.
view_layers	Optional list. Specify list of layers present in the FeatureLayerCollection you want in the view.
view_tables	Optional list. Specify list of tables present in the FeatureLayerCollection you want in the view
description	Optional String. A user-friendly description for the published dataset.
tags	Optional String. The comma separated string of descriptive words.
snippet	Optional String. A short description of the view item.
overwrite	Optional Boolean. If true, the view is overwritten, False is the default.
set_item_id	Optional String. If set, the ItemId is defined by the user, not the system.
preserve_layer_ids	Optional Boolean. Preserves the layer’s id on it’s definition when True. The default is False.

# USAGE EXAMPLE: Create a veiw from a hosted feature layer

>>> crime_fl_item = gis.content.search("2012 crime")[0]
