Unable to view Web Map in collector gallery after adding map via API

The code I wrote to create copies of the existing map, successfully creates new copies which I can see in My Contents tab in ArcGIS Online. However, I am unable to view those in the Collector App Map Gallery (Collector v10.3.5 running on iOS) Would anyone have a clue why? Something I am missing in the json?

If I manually “Save As” using the same title format as in the script, within the web map viewer, the map is visible in the Map Gallery of Collector app. So its the script copy process that is wrong I think.

webmap = gis.content.search(query = 'title:PC_Test', item_type=None, sort_field='numViews', sort_order='desc', max_items=9999)

testmap = webmap[0]

web_map_dict = testmap.get_data(try_json=True)

x = 0
while x <= 5:
    title = "PC_Test_" + str(x)
    web_map_properties = {'title': title,
                         'type':'Web Map',
                         'snippet':'This web map copied from template',
                         'tags':'ArcGIS Python API PC Test',
                         'text':json.dumps(web_map_dict)}

    web_map_item = `gis.content.add(web_map_properties)`

    x += 1

@SergStol the TypeKeywords are not part of webmap JSON, instead its a property on the webmap item. When you are publishing a new webmap for using with collector app, you can write the code as following

web_map_properties = {'title': 'New Web Map for Collector',
                                  'type': 'Web Map',
                                  'snippet': 'an appropriate description',
                                  'tags': 'appropriate tags',
                                  'typeKeywords' : "Collector, Explorer Web Map, Web Map, Map, Online Map",
                                  'text': json.dumps(your_web_map_dict)}
#Publish
web_map_item = gis.content.add(web_map_properties)

There is a typekeyword collector is expecting, did you copy all these over too?
