ReportSection

Synthèse

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.

Discussion

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.

A list of fields and statistic for a report section can be accessed using the fields and statistics properties. These properties are for the main report section and do not include related reports.

Related reports within report sections also have a source. To change the source, use the setRelatedReportSource method. Like changing the main data source, fields are mapped to the report defined by the original source.

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.

Propriétés

PropriétéExplicationType de données
definitionQuery
(Lecture et écriture)

The report section's definition query. Use this to filter the records exported to PDF.

String
fields
(Lecture seule)

The fields in the report section, including field name, sort order, and grouping. This does not include related reports. The keys for the dictionary are defined as follows:

  • fieldNameThe field name for the report.
  • sortOrderThe sorting for the field for the report.
  • groupFieldTrue if the field should be used as a group.

The available sorting options are defined as follows:

  • ASCSort the field in ascending order.
  • DESCSort the field in descending order.
  • NONEDo not sort the field, use the database order.
Dictionary
name
(Lecture et écriture)

The report section's name. It is important that all report sections in a project have a unique name so they can be easily referenced by name.

String
referenceDataSource
(Lecture seule)

Returns the report section's reference data source connection information as a Python dictionary. The keys for the dictionary are defined as follows:

  • datasetDataset name.
  • workspace_factoryWorkspace factory type.
  • connection_info A string that represents the workspace path
Dictionary
statistics
(Lecture seule)

The statistics in the report section, including field name and statistic type. This does not include related reports. The keys for the dictionary are defined as follows:

  • fieldNameThe field name for the statistic
  • statisticThe statistic type for the report.

The available statistics for a report are defined as follows:

  • COUNTThe row count for a group or report will be identified.
  • MEANThe mean of a numeric field for a group or report will be computed.
  • MEDIANThe median of a numeric field for a group or report will be computed.
  • SUMThe sum of a numeric field for a group or report will be computed.
  • STD_DEVThe standard deviation of a numeric field for a group or report. will be computed
  • MAXThe maximum of a field for a group or report will be identified.
  • MINThe minimum of a field for a group or report will be identified.
Dictionary
type
(Lecture seule)

The listSections method on the Report object returns both ReportSection and ReportLayoutSection objects. A report section has a REPORT_SECTION type.

String
visible
(Lecture et écriture)

The report section visibility. Set this to False to exclude the section when exporting to PDF.

Boolean

Vue d’ensemble des méthodes

MéthodeExplication
setReferenceDataSource (data_source)

Sets a report section's reference data source.

setRelatedReportSource (related_report_data_source, related_report_section_name, relate_or_relationship_class_name)

Sets a related report's data source.

Méthodes

setReferenceDataSource (data_source)
ParamètreExplicationType de données
data_source

The data reference for the report section. This parameter can be a Layer object, a Table object, or a string that represents the path to an external data source.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

Object

The setReferenceDataSource method sets the data source that the report section references using a Layer object, a Table object, or a string that represents the path to an external data source.

setRelatedReportSource (related_report_data_source, related_report_section_name, relate_or_relationship_class_name)
ParamètreExplicationType de données
related_report_data_source

The data source for the new related report. This parameter can be a Layer object, a Table object, or a string that represents the path to an external data source.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

Object
related_report_section_name

The name of the related report.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

String
relate_or_relationship_class_name

The name of the new relate or relationship class.

(La valeur par défaut est None)

String

The setRelatedReportSource method sets the data source that the related report references using a Layer object, a Table object, or a string that represents the path to an external data source, the related report name, and the new relate or relationship class name.

SetRelatedReportSource example 1

The following script sets a new related report source using an in-map relate:

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current')
report = aprx.listReports("States Report with Relate")[0]
reportSection = report.listSections()[0]
map = aprx.listMaps("States with Capitals")[0]
newRelatedLayer = map.listLayers("Capitals")[0]
relatedReportName = "cities: Related Report"
newRelateName = "states_capitals"
reportSection.setRelatedReportSource(newRelatedLayer, relatedReportName, newRelateName)

Exemple de code

ReportSection example 1

The following script accesses 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'"
ReportSection example 5

The following script gets the fields and statistics for a report section:

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r'C:\temp\Parcels.aprx') # Find the project
report = aprx.listReports()[1] # Find the second report by index
report_section = report.listSections()[0] # Find the first report section

print(report_section.fields) # Get fields
# [{'fieldName': 'ASR_LANDUSE', 'sortInfo': 'ASC', 'groupField': True}, {'fieldName': 'APN_8', 'sortInfo': 'NONE', 'groupField': False}, {'fieldName': 'ACREAGE', 'sortInfo': 'NONE', 'groupField': False}]

print(report_section.statistics) # Get statistics
# [{'fieldName': 'APN_8', 'statistic': 'COUNT'}, {'fieldName': 'ACREAGE', 'statistic': 'MEAN'}]
