In ArcGIS Pro the GlobalID Attribute does not display in the Merge Feature Attributes section of the tool.  Yes the attribute field is checked on to display it.   

Why I need it?  I use this field as an identifier while generating reports into Survey123.  I want the preserve of the merge GlobalID to match the one in the report in order to quickly go back and review.  Field workers go out and draw their sections of work that day into collector, click on one of the drawn sections to go into Survey123 and fill out a survey of the work they did that day.

Hi Matthew,

You can show the GlobalID field in the Merge tool by setting it as the Display Field in layer properties:

Does that help?

That will work!  Actually even better in my case.  Still am curious why some attributes are not showing in the Merge Feature Attributes section.  Thanks for the help!
