Hello,
It would be very helpful if there were error notifications in ArcGIS Pro when a user imports metadata with incorrectly configured characters.
I was importing already defined field definitions from Excel with ampersands and less than and greater than symbols.
For example, one field had a definition:
<attrdef> Field definition for Population (<1000) during 2023 & 2024 </attrdef>
When I tried to import the fgdc metadata from an xml document with this field, no field attributes were populated. I found out my error by opening the metadata into VScode and using Red Hat's xml extension to identify incorrectly configured characters so now the attribute definition is:
<attrdef> Field definition for Population (<1000) during 2023 & 2024 </attrdef>
I am fairly new to importing xml metadata into ArcGIS Pro and having error messages for misconfigured characters would be very helpful.
Thank you!
