MapService exportTiles sample

[DShokes]

I'm muddling through trying to create a tpk from tiled basemaps. A sample showing non-Admin interactions with a public map services might clear up some confusion. However, I'm also having difficulty working with async jobs. For example,

estimate = MapService.estimateExportTilesSize(exportBy = 'LevelID', levels = '1-9', 
tilePackage = True, exportExtent = '-104,35.6,-94.32,41', 
areaOfInterest = None, async = True)

returns: {'jobStatus': 'esriJobSubmitted', 'jobId': 'j63eb1626d3bc4bc6abaa70d96480693a_et'} there does not appear to be any samples working with jobids or Map Service Jobs in general. So I set async=False.Then am able to run :

estimate['out_service_url'].asDictionary()

returning: {'dataType': 'GPString', 'value': {u'totalSize': 1547963, u'totalTilesToExport': 8}, 'paramName': None}

I can then check 'totalTilesToExport' and attempt to create a tpk. However, I get an error with exportTiles:

export = MapService.exportTiles( levels = '1-9', exportBy = 'LevelID', tilePackage = True,
exportExtent = '-104,35.6,-94.32,41', async = False)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.3\lib\site-packages\arcrest\ags\mapservice.py", line 922, in exportTiles
    value = v['value']
TypeError: 'GPString' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

If exportTiles were to succeed, would the tpk be created in the default workspace automatically? This function doesn't require a destination like exporting a query to .gdb does. Thank you.

It would create a url

@DShokes Davin, is this on a mapservice through ArcGIS Server or ArcGIS Online? If arcgis server,what version are you using?

Thank you

I'm using r"http://tiledbasemaps.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/Reference/World_Transportation/MapServer" and I think I found the problem. I changed:

for k,v in results.items():
    if k == "out_service_url":
        value = v['value']

to

for k,v in results.items():
    if k == "out_service_url":
        value = v.value

and it works. v.asDictionary also works. Strangely, if I just print v on its own I get: TypeError: <bound method GPString.asDictionary of <arcrest.ags._gpobjects.GPString object at 0x0F09D2F0>> is not JSON serializable
