Hello, 

If a point or block has object data it does seem to be translating to the attributes of a feature layer when creating a new feature layer from an entity or block. 

Am I doing something wrong or is this the intended use? Also it would be nice when creating a new feature layer from an already existing point or block with attribute data that we could use the object data to filter the features we want to make as well.

Hello Derek,

I am not sure I understand the question, or perhaps it is related to your first sentence explaining your workflow. I will say yes this is the intended functionality. Additionally Object data is not the same as block attributes. If you are actually asking about ingesting the object data then this is not supported, however, the block attributes are.

Another thing to think about is once the data is loaded in the table we can just use Select by Attributes to query against the block attributes.

I hope this helps.
