Unique attribute indexes in file geodatabases

Bud

As far as I can tell, unique attribute indexes are not supported in file geodatabases.

It would help to have that functionality so that I could enforce uniqueness in a user-defined field, such as ASSET_ID (text).

I am guessing one of Esri's responses, assuming they do respond, will be that uniqueness can be enforced through an Attribute Rule.  I find Attribute Rules clunky, but they are portable across a range of Esri products:

var val = $feature.FieldName;
var cnt = Count(Filter($featureset, 'FieldName = <a href="https://community.esri.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3675">@VaL</a>'));
Boolean(cnt < 2);
