If you want a less violent update you can either do some Pro upgrades and check out the new "<SPAN>Matching Fields for Update" parameter, or dive into arcpy to write your own update tool.</SPAN></P> Wed, 23 Apr 2025 15:17:22 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/updateing-existing-feature-class-with-new-data/m-p/1608535#M95232 DavidSolari 2025-04-23T15:17:22Z
