@FredSpataro there is an ArcGISProject.homeFolder property.  In fact when trying to rebuild a project using the techniques above by importing into a blank project, there are many other items to consider. ArcGISProject.databases / updateDatabases ArcGISProject.defaultGeodatabase ArcGISProject.defaultToolbox ArcGISProject.folderConnections / updateFolderConnections ArcGISProjec.homeFolder ArcGISProject.styles / updateStyles (Pro 3.3) ArcGISProject.toolboxes / updateToolboxes (Pro 3.3) ArcGISProject.updateConnectionProperties We are considering creating New Project but there are some technical hurdles we need to resolve.

@FourCornersMapping the importDocument method can be found under the ArcGISProject help topic: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/arcpy/mapping/arcgisproject-class.htm This is not a replacement for your idea, it is a possible workaround for now. Python is great at automation. If you are not familiar with using Python for automation, I understand. The logic will need to be extended further if you want to set {reuse_existing_maps=False} because the object returned is a layout (for import PAGX) so you would need to know how to find the additiona, newly added maps that are also imported and then rename them accordingly.  If there is a way to predict the names of the imported maps, then you could reference them and rename them using arcpy.mp. Here is an introductory help topic: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/arcpy/mapping/introduction-to-arcpy-mp.htm Jeff m = p.listMaps('imported map name')[0] m.name = "New Name"   ...

Hello @FourCornersMapping, I can't speak to doing this in the User Interface but this might be automated using Python. For example, p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current') newLyt = p.importDocument(r"C:\temp\Layout.pagx", True, True) newLyt.name = "New Layout" This technique only allows you to rename one object at a time.  In the above example, I'm using reuse existing maps = True so if the map already exists, it doesn't get recreated as a project item. The importDocument function can also be used to import mapx and many other file types. Jeff - arcpy.mp and Layout teams ... View more

With Pro 3.3, we added applyStyle(style_Item) to all Layout Elements that can be created using styles. This allows you to apply a style to an existing element in a layout. This does NOT include borders, shadows, etc because those properties are not persisted in a style BUT Python CIM access can be used to set these properties.

This will be made available in Pro 3.3.  The following members were added to the API: Layer.pageQuery - r/o Layer.setPageQuery({field_name}, {match})   Jeff - arcpy.mp and Layout SDK teams ... View more

@ted At Pro 3.3 we added createTableFrameElement and a new TableFrameElement class. I hope this helps with your requirements for "adding a table to a layout". Jeff - arcpy mp and Layout SDK teams ... View more

@-_- can you please explain how you are importing?  I added the last two lines to the sample code I originally made available to see if writing to LYRX was losing its value.  For me, its working as expected. #In this example, the first class break range is "62127 - 824344" #The minimumBreak value is changed to "60000" via Python CIM Access #BUT ... the label also needs to be updated to "60000 - 824344 p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current') m = p.listMaps('Map')[0] l = m.listLayers('State_Polygons')[0] #Update mimimumBreak value via Python CIM Access if hasattr(l.symbology, 'renderer'): if l.symbology.renderer.type == 'GraduatedColorsRenderer': l_cim = l.getDefinition('V3') l_cim.renderer.minimumBreak = 60000 l.setDefinition(l_cim) #Update the label to match the new value is seen via Histogram tab sym = l.symbology cb1 = sym.renderer.classBreaks[0] cb1Lbl = cb1.label update = cb1Lbl.replace(cb1Lbl.split('-')[0], str(l_cim.renderer.minimumBreak) + ' ' ) cb1.label = update l.symbology = sym #Test if values are persisted when saving to a LYRX l.saveACopy(r'c:\Temp\MinValue.lyrx') m.addDataFromPath(r'c:\Temp\MinValue.lyrx') #Min value is persisted Then I ran this as another way to test persistence. #Test values can be applied to other layers. l1 = m.listLayers('Original')[0] #Made a copy prior to running script above l2 = m.listLayers('State_Polygons')[0] l1.symbology = l2.symbology Is it possible it is layer type or data specific?

Thank you for your feedback, @-_-  This can be accomplished via Python CIM access: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/arcpy/mapping/python-cim-access.htm In addition to changing the CIM minimumBreak value, you also need to change the label for the first class break to include your modified value. Here is a code snippet: #In this example, the first class break range is "62127 - 824344" #The minimumBreak value is changed to "60000" via Python CIM Access #BUT ... the label also needs to be updated to "60000 - 824344 p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current') m = p.listMaps('Map')[0] l = m.listLayers('State_Polygons')[0] #Update mimimumBreak value via Python CIM Access if hasattr(l.symbology, 'renderer'): if l.symbology.renderer.type == 'GraduatedColorsRenderer': l_cim = l.getDefinition('V3') l_cim.renderer.minimumBreak = 60000 l.setDefinition(l_cim) #Update the label to match the new value is seen via Histogram tab sym = l.symbology cb1 = sym.renderer.classBreaks[0] cb1Lbl = cb1.label update = cb1Lbl.replace(cb1Lbl.split('-')[0], str(l_cim.renderer.minimumBreak) + ' ' ) cb1.label = update l.symbology = sym    Jeff - Layout (SDK) and arcpy.mp teams ...
