How To: Update geometry based on lat/long attributes in table

Question

I did an append data function in ArcOnline and a huge number of the points ended up in the same location.  I reviewed the Lat/Long Data in the attribute table and they all had their own unique lat/long.  How can I do a bulk update to all records to align the geometry based on its associated lat/long for that record in ArcGIS Pro?

Another option would be to simply export the attribute table and then bring it back in as an event layer based on the lat/long fields and then save it as a new dataset.

Yes-ish.   As if the first record it loaded it landed correctly then the rest just landed on top of it.

Ill have to look into what I did for the projection.

At any rate, what was done was done, how do I fix it in an efficient manner there are about 1000 records.

Thanks!
