Python Script tool
I have written a scripting tool for first time using python where I am filtering the feature set of a feature layer by applying filters on the fields in the attribute table of a feature Layer Also, Providing a feature layer as a parameter and input field having datatype Value Table and to perform filtering on the Feature Layer I need to generate SQL expression for which I need the data Type of particular field .
Is this approach fine or should I implement it in any other way
Hi @abhishek_choudhary ,
For your second parameter, you can create it as type Field and set the Dependency to the InputFeatureLayer (as you currently do). This will provide a dropdown to select the field:
You can easily create SQL expressions with the SqlExpression parameter type. Just set its dependency to the layer and ArcGIS automatically fills out the possible fields and values.
