We've put up a Geodatabase Resources Hub and want to use this space to discuss what you'd like to see on the site or any possible improvements you think we can make. Have a look and let us know what you think. Here's a short introductory post about it: In the midst of all the new functionality and features the ArcGIS Pro 3.2 release brings, we also want to highlight another project the team has been diligently working on recently – the Geodatabase Resources Hub.                                                 The resources site, powered by ArcGIS Hub, is a one-stop-shop for all geodatabase-related content. On this site you can find everything from guided tutorials to help you get started with geodatabases and data management, to direct links to help documentation, instructional videos, and full, dedicated pages containing all the content we’ve ever produced on a given topic. The content includes topics for data design and everybody’s favorites, branch versioning and attribute rules, just to name a few. This is just the foundation for the site, it will be a dynamic, living space that we will continue to populate as we create more content for you. Hope you enjoy it!  ... View more

Hey Everyone! We've added the Generate Schema Report tool to ArcGIS Pro 3.2 and want to hear your feedback about it. I've posted a blog post to add context to the project with a brief history and also a look at where we'd like to take it in the future. We know X-Ray was a much-used tool and hope this can help with some of the same workflows. Moving forward we'll be addressing a key workflow many of you have asked for: The ability to make schema changes in the Excel output and then reimport to create a new geodatabase with those updates. We're hoping to get this into Pro 3.3. The Schema Report is available now but it's also a work in progress and we'd very much like to hear from you: What do you like and maybe want to see more of? What is missing? What could be improved? What are your workflows?
