https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/tool-parameter-workspace-with-arcpy/m-p/1355815#M27066 <P>I have a custom GP tool that combines two or more gdb together, works fine for fgdbs, but two SDEs don't combine. The tool is setup to accept multiple Workspaces.</P><P>While debugging the issue, I found that two fgdbs come in as a list like path\name1.gdb;path\name2.gdb. The issue for SDE egdbs is that they come in like: 'path\name1.SDE';'path\name2.SDE'.</P><P>Can someone explain why the SDE is coming in with quotations vs the fgdbs that come in without them? I think that is the issue, but not sure what is causing it.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Fri, 01 Dec 2023 17:53:35 GMT SeanT 2023-12-01T17:53:35Z https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/tool-parameter-workspace-with-arcpy/m-p/1355815#M27066 <P>I have a custom GP tool that combines two or more gdb together, works fine for fgdbs, but two SDEs don't combine.
