We have this issue too..  we have Self intersecting polygons in an ST_Geometry SDE feature class (this isn't the first time this has happened).     But I can't even CHECK for errors using ArcGIS Pro.  This is a major limitation of ArcGIS Pro for troubleshooting data issues.       It would be an absolute dream if I could repair the geometry too in SDE.  ...

Looks like this still isn't implemented.   We only see High to Low as an option. ... View more

would this setting in the Hub maybe do that for you (Embedded Links)?  It is under Interactions   ... View more

This idea is important even more so now that Esri deprecated the Feature Class to Feature Class tool, because that was the only tool for getting a feature class into SDE from a file geodatabase that provided a Configuration Keyword dropdown.     The problem with not providing a dropdown list is the user has to know what configuration keyword applies to what they are doing and manually enter it.  In a large agency that is going to be difficult to manage and is likely going to cause a lot of users to put data into the incorrect tablespace (the default tablespace) within our large geodatabase. the way I noticed this problem (I am using Pro 3.2): I just went to copy a file geodatabase feature class into SDE (just simple copy and paste), and it didn’t pause to allow me to enter a config keyword, like ArcCatalog does.      Also, there is no longer a single feature class import tool that provides a Config keyword dropdown, even in the environments tab.     All that is provided now is the multi feature class import tool which does not have a dropdown, only an Environments option to manually enter the Config keyword.       The only way I am able now to use a dropdown to choose a config keyword is if I create a feature class from scratch and append data to it. Comparatively, in ArcCatalog, both the Import Feature Class and the simple copy and paste gave you a chance to enter the config keyword upon performing the task. I would strongly support either adding a dropdown to the Environments dialog for config keywords, or at least adding a Geodatabase settings section, with the Use Config Keyword option, into the main Feature class to Geodatabase tool or other tools that support it..        Also when copying and pasting, having an intermediate dialog with the input/output names and Config Keyword setting would save us a lot of headaches with regard to data being put into the wrong tablespace. ...

I agree, i have mosaic datasets with lots of rasters in them and it was so much easier when I could just click the MD in ArcCatalog and view what is in it.   The explore raster tool isn't very helpful because I can only see one raster and a time as I click through ... View more

I agree... our problem is, we have a very large enterprise database, and any given connected user could have access to a LOT of data they should not be publishing, therefore we can't use the Bulk Publishing option at all since we have no control over which things are getting published. ...

If the service is published with the field in it, then it is technically being "used", because the service definition itself contains all layers that are turned on in the source document when it is published.  So when the service is used, it is looking for all of the fields in its definition.   So that is why it will throw an error if you remove that field in the underlying dataset. ...

Transfer content does work, but only if you want to transfer ALL of the user's content.  Transfer content doesn't allow you to pick and choose what to transfer.   Often we just want to transfer a certain project to someone else; not all of their content. ... View more

Darn, that sounded promising, but I tried it, and it didn't work for me...thanks for sharing though! ... View more

Thank you for that info, Richard...  I did have a case on this (03080113) in which the conclusion was basically that this was by design and that the only fix was to recreate and register all of our spatial views that were previously registered using SDE command line, so unfortunately agency-wide, we have spent a lot of time doing that only to now find out that it was fixed a couple of patches later, with no bug logged.     I am happy it is fixed, but pretty annoyed.     ...

how are you retrieving the values.   As labels?   If it is as labels, you can use an Advanced expression and If/Then query to label the features with ID 1 as Canada, like this    Function FindLabel ([region_ID]) if [region_ID] = 1 then FindLabel = "Canada" elseif [region_ID] = 2 then FindLabel = "Another region" if [region_ID] = 3 then FindLabel = "Yet another region " else FindLabel = "No region" end if End Function     ...

This can also happen if you are adding data from a slow network, especially large datasets.    A way you can test that is to only add data from your C: drive and see if you have the same experience.   ... View more

When ArcCatalog sees a folder called info, it assumes there is a Grid or Coverage-type dataset in that folder (Grid rasters and Coverages use an info folder alongside them to store internal information about the dataset), and since the "info" should not be manipulated, and all datasets within a folder use the same info folder, Arc hides that folder from the user.   I am attaching a screen shot of a Grid raster in ArcCatalog versus in File Explorer.      I know there is a way to make files with certain extensions display, but I can't find a way to make it so the info folder is not seen as a an ArcInfo folder.     ...
