Installing using Conda
Conda (https://conda.io) is a package dependency and environment management system for many popular programming languages, such as Python, R, Ruby, and JavaScript, to name a few. As such, the ArcGIS API for Python is distributed via Conda. To use Conda to install the arcgis package, you will first need to download and install the latest version of Anaconda for Python 3.x (https://www.anaconda.com/download/). After you install Anaconda, in your terminal, execute the following command to download and install the API:
conda install -c esri arcgis
The API package can also be updated through the Conda command line with the following command:
conda upgrade -c esri arcgis
