AttributeError: module 'arcpy' has no attribute 'ImportCADAnnotation'

Did ESRI deprecate the ImportCADAnnotation tool?

# Variables for Import CAD Annotation InputCADAnnotation = r"Z:\Development\CAD_ParcelAutomation\APRX\MyProject\Main.gdb\CAD_Geodatabase\Annotation" OutputFeatureClass = r"Z:\Development\CAD_ParcelAutomation\APRX\MyProject\Main.gdb\CADAnno" arcpy.ImportCADAnnotation(InputCADAnnotation, OutputFeatureClass, 1200)

Traceback (most recent call last): File "Z:/Development/CAD_ParcelAutomation/Python/CAD_ParcelAutomation.py", line 71, in <module> arcpy.ImportCADAnnotation(InputCADAnnotation, OutputFeatureClass, 1200) AttributeError: module 'arcpy' has no attribute 'ImportCADAnnotation'

Looks like it's not there in Pro, perhaps CAD To Geodatabase (Conversion)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation will do it for you but that's just a guess tbh.
