Advanced user of ArcGIS API for PythonIt's made my life so much easier by allowing me to automate and streamline processes for my job.
It can be a bit slow to log into my account through the API—about 20 seconds—which can take up the bulk of my script run time for simpler tasks.
Check out GeoNet for resources—it serves as a centralized GIS-specific version of StackExchange.
I've been able to convert .kmz pop-up fields to ArcGIS attribute fields, generate secure automatic tokens every hour, and back up ArcGIS online assets daily using custom scripts I've written with the API.
