Pass Global_IDs when using the feature to point tool.

Question

Is there a way to pass the Global IDs from a polygon feature class to a point feature class, so that I can create a relationship between the two? I have used the featuretopoint tool, but it doesn't pass the Global IDs and there isn't an option to preserve the Global IDs in the tool. I am open to a python solution as well.

You could try the “preserve global ID” tool, or if you were to create a “legacy” field in your point feature you could then calculate the global id from the polygon layer by doing a spatial join since each point would be located within each polygon.

Here is a longer post from the community that may help.

Hope some of that helps.
