Polling the Community on how you typically find subtyped feature classes in a geodatabase. The use case is GIS Analyst (new hire) is handed a geodatabase with numerous features without any documentation.
Thank you for mentioning this! I've been generating these reports weekly for a year now but never thought to actually use them when I needed them 😉
I’d likely use Oracle SQL to query the enterprise geodatabase system tables.
In addition to the ListSubtypes function in arcpy, there is a new GP tool called Generate Schema Report that lists just about everything in your GDB. You can learn more about it here!
My go-to is the List Subtypes function in arcpy, something like:
def subtype_field(dataset): return next(iter(arcpy.da.ListSubtypes(dataset).values()))["SubtypeField"]
If the returned value is the empty string then you know there's no subtypes.
