Deprecation of Functionality in ArcGIS Data Reviewer

[DMolnar]

As part of an effort to modernize workflows and avoid risks associated with the impending retirement of ArcMap, the final release for the following tools and items will be the October 2025 release of ArcGIS Data Reviewer for ArcGIS Pro 3.6.  

Starting in April 2026 with the release of ArcGIS Pro 3.7 and ArcGIS Enterprise 12.1, the following Reviewer Workspace tools and items will be removed and no longer be available:  

The following tools in ArcGIS Pro: 

• Browse Features 

• Flag Missing Features 

• Reviewer Batch Job 

• Reviewer Session 

• Reviewer Table 

• Update Results panes 

The following geoprocessing tools: 

• Create Reviewer Session 

• Delete Reviewer Session 

• Enable Data Reviewer 

• Execute Reviewer Batch Job 

• Write To Reviewer Table 

Custimization support for ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET: 

• ArcGIS.Desktop.DataReviewer assembly 

We encourage you to migrate the above tools to attribute rule-based workflows in ArcGIS Data Reviewer for ArcGIS Pro 3.6 and ArcGIS Enterprise 12.0.

Thank you for sharing this update. It’s helpful to have clarity on the deprecation timeline so teams can plan migrations ahead of time.

The move toward attribute rule-based validation makes sense as part of modernizing workflows, but many organizations still depend heavily on the Reviewer Batch Job and Reviewer Table for QA/QC automation. It would be great to see more migration guidance and practical examples that show how equivalent logic can be implemented using attribute rules or Data Reviewer checks in ArcGIS Pro 3.6 before the 2026 cutoff.

This is an important transition, and proactive communication like this really helps teams prepare effectively.
