ReportSection

Resumen

The ReportSection object references a report section in a report. It provides access to common properties such as a definition query and a method to set the reference data source.

Debate

An ArcGIS Pro report can contain multiple report sections. Report sections are accessed using the listSections method on the Report object. This returns a Python list of ReportSection and ReportLayoutSection objects. Each report section can be referenced by a unique name and has a REPORT_SECTION type.

A ReportSection has a data source that can be identified using the referenceDataSource property. To change the data source, use the setReferenceDataSource method. This method maps the fields from the new data source to the fields of the report that were defined by the original data source. The field names, not the field aliases, must be an exact, case-sensitive match.

To filter the records exported to PDF, modify the report section's definitionQuery property. To exclude a report section from the exported PDF, set the visible property to false.

ReportSection example 1

The following script gets all report sections in a report:

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\DemoData\NationalParks.aprx")
report = aprx.listReports("National Parks Report")[0]
sections = [s.name for s in report.listSections() if s.type=="REPORT_SECTION"] # Get list of report section names
for s in sections:
	print(s)
# National Parks Overview
# Park Highlights
# Annual Review

ReportSection example 2

The following script sets a report section visibility to False:

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\DemoData\NationalParks.aprx")
report = aprx.listReports("National Parks Report")[0]
section = report.listSections("National Parks Overview")[0] # Find the report section by name
section.visible = False

ReportSection example 3

The following script sets the reference data source for the second report section in a report to a table in a map:

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\DemoData\NationalParks.aprx")
map = aprx.listMaps("National Parks")[0]  # Find a map in the project
table = map.listTables()[0] # Find the first table in the map
report = aprx.listReports("National Parks Report")[0]
section = report.listSections()[1] # Find the report section by index
section.setReferenceDataSource(table)

ReportSection example 4

The following script modifies the definition query for the third report section in a report:

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\DemoData\NationalParks.aprx")
report = aprx.listReports("National Parks Report")[0]
section = report.listSections("Annual Review")[0] # Find the report section by name
section.definitionQuery = "ParkName = 'Yosemite'"
