Thank you Rickey for your reply.

Actually I am working on Python toolbox tool. Here are the steps I followed:

1. Created Python toolbox in ArcGIS Pro. ie, Toolboxes -> New Python Toolbox

2 Added one tool to the toolbox

3. Open the tool and tried to open help for this tool.

When I click on the help icon shown in the image, it opens from the xml file from the toolbox location.

But I want to open the help file from the website (as ESRI system tool help).

Can anyone guide me how to link html file to help icon on the geoprocessing tool interface.

Thanks.

1... pick the tool

2...  figure out what type of hyperlink and where you want to put it.  It can be in the Summary or...

3... one of the tool parameters.

In the above example (3), delta X is a required parameter for my tool's help specified in the metadata.  I just put a link to the Pro help files as a demo... You get the cute little formatting toolbar as shown in (1) and (2) above.  You can mess with fonts and the like if you have more time on your hands.
