A set of python scripts (using multiple libraries) to help administer Workforce projects and services
Supports Python 2.7+ and Python 3.4+ (required for ArcGIS API for Python)
Three sets of scripts that do the same things are provided. One relies on the ArcREST library. A second set relies on ArcGIS API for Python. The stand-a-lone set of scripts are standalone and uses Requests to make GET and POST requests easily and to support Python 2 and 3. All three sets of scripts use arrow to handle datetime conversions.

We provided three different options to use Python to help automate common workflows within Workforce For ArcGIS.
- If you plan to integrate Workforce with many other systems or significantly modify these scripts, it's probably best if you use the stand-a-lone scripts.
- If you have existing workflows that use ArcREST for other ArcGIS related scripts, it's probably best if you use the ArcREST scripts.
- If you are relatively new to Python, have interest in using other geoprocessing analytics, or would like to use Jupyter notebooks, it's probably best if you use the ArcGIS API for Python scripts.
- Install Conda and the ArcGIS API for Python package as described here.
- Clone or download this repository
- In terminal/cmd navigate to the
arcgis_api_for_pythonfolder - Install arrow from PyPi using pip and the requirements.txt file (
pip install -r requirements.txt) - You should now be able to run all scripts in the
arcgis_api_for_pythonfolder (provided you use the correct arguments)
- Install Python 2.7.x or 3.4+ if not already installed
- Clone or download this repository
- In terminal/cmd navigate to the
arcrest_scriptsfolder - Install ArcREST and arrow from PyPi using pip and the requirements.txt file (
pip install -r requirements.txt) - You should now be able to run all script in the
arcrest_scriptsfolder (provided you use the correct arguments)
- Install Python 2.7.x or 3.4+ if not already installed
- Clone or download this repository
- In terminal/cmd navigate to the
standalone_scriptsfolder - Install requests and arrow from PyPi using pip and the requirements.txt file (
pip install -r requirements.txt) - You should now be able to run all script in the
standalone_scriptsfolder (provided you use the correct arguments)
