TL;DR If ArcGIS Pro already exposes import shortcuts for feature classes and tables from a file geodatabase right-click menu, it should also expose Raster to Geodatabase and JSON to Features there for consistency and speed.
In the Catalog pane, a user can right-click a file geodatabase and go to Import to bring in feature classes or tables. That workflow is useful because it exposes common data-loading actions directly from the target geodatabase, instead of forcing the user to stop, search for the tool in Geoprocessing, and then navigate back.
I propose expanding that same right-click Import menu to include at least Raster to Geodatabase, and ideally also JSON to Features.
Right now, these are common import workflows, but they are not surfaced in the same place. If I am already right-clicking the destination geodatabase, it is natural to expect that I should be able to import raster datasets into it from that same menu, just as I can import feature classes or tables. The same logic applies to JSON to Features, especially for users who routinely bring in JSON-based spatial data from APIs, exports, or external systems.
At minimum, Raster to Geodatabase should be added. That feels like the clearest gap in the existing menu because raster is a major data type stored in geodatabases, and importing rasters into a GDB is a standard workflow. Having to leave the Catalog-pane context and manually search for the tool is unnecessary friction.
The broader issue here is consistency of interface design. If the Import menu on a geodatabase is meant to be a practical entry point for loading data into that geodatabase, then it should cover the main data types users reasonably expect to import there. Feature classes and tables are already present. Raster belongs in that same list. JSON to Features would also be a strong addition for modern data-ingest workflows.
This would improve discoverability, reduce clicks, and make the Catalog pane behave more like a true data-management workspace rather than only a partial shortcut surface.
