When creating a new .gdb in the project home folder, add it to the project's database connections

[wayfaringrob]

If I create a geodatabase inside the project's home folder, it strangely doesn't get added to the list of databases under Project > Databases, requiring a few extra clicks to get it there. It would make more sense if databases created in my project folder were added to the project automatically.

This is such a good and useful idea.

I could see supporting this if it were an option and offered per project, and not as a general option, or better yet, ask the user if they want to add it to the project after it's created. I often create geodatabases (both file and enterprise) in my project folder, but in the interest of keeping my project streamlined, I like to pick and choose which database connections I have available in the project database folder. Sometimes my geodatabases will be scratch or temporary, or from 3rd party vendors, and I don't want them displayed in my project, but I do want them stored in my project, where I can add them if/when I need them.

Having said that, I could see a use case for some projects where it would be nice to have the option to add a geodatabase upon creation.

Hello @wayfaringrob ,

Thank you for your feedback.  ArcGIS Pro is already behaving as you suggested - when you create a new file geodatabase or mobile geodatabase in the project home folder, the newly created geodatabase will be automatically added to the project, appearing under the Databases container.  Could you please describe your workflow in more details where you did not see this happening? 

Thank you.
