Tool Conversion.FeatureClassToGeodatabase does not copy domains

Question

Hi,

FeatureClassToGeodatabase and FeatureClassToFeatureClass tools do not copy domains definition. I tried with ArcGIS Pro 2.7 or 2.8. It was working in ArcGIS Pro 2.5.

I tried with ArcGIS Desktop 10.8 and domains are correctly copied.

I cannot find any parameters or options to specifiy if domains should be copied with these tools.

Is this a bug in the new versions of ArcGIS Pro ?

Any help would be appreciated.

After further tests, FeatureClassToFeatureClass tool works with domains. It is only the FeatureClassToGeodatabase that does not transfer domains information.

Have you enabled the Transfer field domain descriptions (Environment setting) ?

Looks like it should work with FeatureclassToFeatureclass given the restrictions listed in the help topic
