I have been given a map document with ~130 feature classes which have been symbolized, etc. In the layer properties, on the General Tab, credits have been written in. When published to ArcGIS Online as a hosted feature service, these credits stream into the display area of the map.



Is there a way to automate the removal of the credits via python?



I thought perhaps arcpy.Describe but there doesn't seem to be a method or property for credits.



layer property credits






arcpy layers feature-class

          The layer object in arcpy.mapping has a credits property that




          Provides the ability to either get or set the layer's credits or copyright information.




          Since the credits were set in the project, not the data, you will have to remove them in the project, then re-publish the project to ArcGIS Online.

                    One-line joke

                    A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
