Hi,
I upgraded from 2.7.3 to 2.8. Before, I could convert multiple CAD files to a file geodatabase in a single feature dataset but now only 1 file is finally processed.
Is there any movement on this? I can confirm that it still doesn't work at Pro 2.9.2. I've never been able to get the CAD to Geodatabase process working in Pro/Python 3. I've been working with tech support and they've given up trying to figure it out. Apparently the people I was working with weren't aware of this bug? We're still stuck using a Python 2 script.
I was able to go back to 2.7.3 and it works again. My ESRI org administrator was able to download it I think from MyEsri. We had to uninstall ArcPro then re-install then apply the 2.7.3 patch. I don't think the 2.7's work with Portal.
Have you tried going back to 2.7.3 to see if it will work again? I went back to 2.7.4 and it's giving the same problem.
Did they say when 2.9 will be released?
Thank you for posting this. I'm having the same issue. I'm using 2.8.2
Still does not work after patch 2
Esri confirmed it as #BUG-000140504 The CAD to Geodatabase tool does not work correctly in ArcGIS Pro 2.8.
Hi Adrian,
Yes, I think I have stumbled on a bug. I can import directly into the gdb but this of course will give not the desired result. Because each cad file I have to select manually and is separate imported and not all cad files are combined in the five feature classes (annotation, point, polyline, polygon, multipatch).
Wow, I wonder if you're right about this being a new bug in 2.8. Are there any special or limiting characters in your file path, like a semi-colon, that could be stopping this operation from happening?
Could you try importing directly to the geodatabase from the catalog pane and choosing "Feature Class(es)"?
I have done this but only the first file will be added in the gdb. I have tested it with an older proces from geoprocessing history where I added 3 cad file into a gdb. running it again only 1 file is added.
Try adding one CAD file from the folder, then another folder option should appear to let you add more CAD files
