HOW TO
Custom batch files provide the flexibility to launch ArcGIS Pro with different license types and license levels. This is useful in both Concurrent Use and Single Use environments, where users may need to switch licenses based on task requirements. This article provides the workflow to create custom batch files for ArcGIS Pro based on license type and license level.
Note: Ensure all license types and license levels are authorized on the machine before following the workflow provided.
set ESRI_SEAT_PREFERENCE_PRO=<license_type> set ESRI_SOFTWARE_CLASS_PRO=<license_level> set path=%path%;C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin ArcGISPro.exe
Note: For the 'set path' parameter, the default path for the ArcGIS Pro.exe file is used in this script. Specify the path appropriately if this path is changed during the installation process.
