Persisting Add-In Data Into Pro Project

MartinTyberg — Tue, 10 Dec 2019 19:24:37 GMT

Hi,

In ArcObjects, it is possible to save add-in data directly into an MXD and to retrieve that when the MXD is loaded again. Is it possible in the ArcGIS Pro SDK to persist add-in data into an ArcGIS Pro project and later retrieve it when the project is loaded again?

Thanks,

Martin

With Pro, you can add content and images to an add-in and access them.

Here is a wiki page that discusses this: ProGuide: Content and Image Resources

Hi Uma,

Thanks. However, I need to save dynamic content that is generated when a user interacts with a dialog that my add-in raises. I'm thinking the best way to persist data is to retrieve the project's file geodatabase, create a new table in it, and store the data there.

Thanks,

Martin

Hi Martin,

Or you can implement 'custom project settings' as shown here: https://github.com/esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/ProGuide-Custom-settings
