Connecting to SDE databases in PRO

petegillard — Tue, 29 Dec 2020 20:08:32 GMT

We're just getting started in our move to PRO. Is there a way (like ArcGIS ArcMap) in PRO, that the connection to our SDE databases is available ALL THE TIME? It seems live EVERY SINGLE TIME, we create an ArcPRO project (map?) we have to connect to the SDE databases residing on the server.

Thanks,

Pete

Yes there is a way for ArcGIS Pro to remember SDE connections. Build the connection once in the Catalog Pane->Databases. Right-click on the *.sde connection and choose "Add to New Projects." Voila - all new AGP projects have your *.sde connections added to them.

Where are you attempting to view *.sde connections?
