Which Parameter data types in a Python toolbox For Selecting A Path

BHK — Mon, 19 Jun 2023 16:38:38 GMT

I need to select a SDE PATH based on user selection on Python toolbox at ArcGIS Pro 2.7.1 and use this path

at the code for setting like

fc = 'Zone' SDEDir = inputPath arcpy.management.CalculateField(r"F:\\Pro\\AreaProject\\SEV_SDE.sde\\" + fc, "PROJECTT", .... "PYTHON")

so the final code looks like

fc = 'Zone' SDEDir = inputPath arcpy.management.CalculateField(SDEDir + fc, "PROJECTT", .... "PYTHON")

Can you please let me know what data type I can use to grab the selected SDE Path? I already used File and Database Connection but they are not giving me the PATH

Use a workspace and specify a remote database filter. For a python toolbox (.pyt) this is:

import os import arcpy etc... class Tool(object): etc... def getParameterInfo(self): param0 = arcpy.Parameter( displayName="Input Workspace", name="in_workspace", datatype="DEWorkspace", parameterType="Required", direction="Input") # Set the filter to accept only remote/enterprise geodatabases param0.filter.list = ["Remote Database"] return [param0] def execute(self, parameters, messages): """The source code of the tool.""" path = parameters[0].valueAsText fc = "Zone" fc_path = os.path.join(path, fc)
