https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/feature-class-to-geodatabase-removes-global-id/m-p/1386831#M79310 <P>I'm using arcpy.conversion.FeatureClassToGeodatabase() and it removes the globalid field. This doesn't happen when I manually copy a feature class to a new gdb. Is this a bug or am I missing something?</P> Mon, 26 Feb 2024 16:28:39 GMT Scosh 2024-02-26T16:28:39Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/feature-class-to-geodatabase-removes-global-id/m-p/1386831#M79310 <P>I'm using arcpy.conversion.FeatureClassToGeodatabase() and it removes the globalid field.
