Copy geometry only from one feature class to another based on condition

Question

I'm trying to use ArcPy to copy only the geometry from one feature class to another based on a certain condition. Here is my code so far:

source_fields = ['contition_field', 'SHAPE@']

icursor = arcpy.da.InsertCursor(target_fc, 'SHAPE@')

with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(source_fc, source_fields) as scursor:

    for row in scursor:
        if row[0] == 'condition1':
            icursor.insertRow(row[1])

When I try to run it, I get this:

TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-14-bc6790d82eb2> in <module>
      6     for row in scursor:
      7         if row[0] == 'condition1':
----> 8             icursor.insertRow(row[1])
      9 
     10 

TypeError: cannot read geometry sequence. expected list of floats

I tried doing a few searches on this error, but it seems like most people don't have a problem with copying geometry, they have problem with copying other fields. However nothing seems to allow me to copy the feature geometry (like in this thread):

Insert Geometry and update attribute using arcpy.da.InsertCursor

What is wrong?

Answer 1

Change icursor.insertRow(row[1]) to icursor.insertRow([row[1]])
