Add Portal Items To Catalog Dataset (Data Management)

Summary

Adds ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise portal service items—such as feature, map, image, scene, and tile services—to an existing catalog dataset.

Usage

  • This tool adds items from the active portal to a catalog dataset. The active portal is assumed from the application. See Access portal items and groups for more information.

  • Items must be manually removed from the dataset's attribute table.

  • After the target catalog dataset is specified, you can apply filters to only add certain items. You can filter items based on their data type, sharing level, organizational status, or spatial extent.

  • To add portal items to a catalog dataset created in ArcGIS Pro 3.1, the dataset must be upgraded with the Upgrade Dataset tool.

  • Items added to the catalog dataset must have an extent.

  • OGC feature services, feature collections, table layers, elevation layers, and video layers are not supported and cannot be input as a portal item type.

Code sample

AddPortalItemsToCatalogDataset example 1 (stand-alone script)

This example adds image services that are located in the private SampleTestFolder portal folder to the SampleCatalog dataset.

import arcpy

target_catalog_dataset = r"C:/Dataspace/studyarea.gdb/SampleCatalog"
input_portal_itemtypes = "IMAGE_SERVICE"
content = "MY_CONTENT"
portal_groups = None 
portal_folders = "SampleFolder"
access_level = "PRIVATE"
arcpy.management.AddPortalItemsToCatalogDataset(target_catalog_dataset,
                                        input_portal_itemtypes, content, 
                                        portal_folders, portal_groups,
                                        access_level)
AddPortalItemsToCatalogDataset example 2 (stand-alone script)

This example adds scene and WFS services that belong to the SampleGroup group and are shared with the organization to the SampleCatalog dataset.

import arcpy

target_catalog_dataset = r"C:/Dataspace/studyarea.gdb/SampleCatalog"
input_portal_itemtypes = ["SCENE_SERVICE", "WFS"]
content = "MY_GROUPS"
portal_groups = "SampleGroup" 
portal_folders = None
access_level = "ORG"
arcpy.management.AddPortalItemsToCatalogDataset(target_catalog_dataset,
                                        input_portal_itemtypes, content,
                                        portal_folders, portal_groups,
