I'm new to ArcGIS Pro SDK. I have an Add-in app that performs queries, joins etc. using SQL Server
databases. There are multiple databases, tables, and joins involved so I use SQL Server environment to perform all the query, search, and join operations.
After all queries are done, I want to display the resulting spatial table on the ArcGIS Pro project map (result is basically a polygon shapefile).
However, although SQL Server table has shape, it doesn't have a spatial reference. I want to use
Albers Equal Area Conic-USGS (I think it has a spatial reference SR_wkid = 6703).
How do I load the spatial SQL Server table (with spatial reference) onto the Active map using C# from my Add-In app? I have created a database connection to the SQL Server database. So my parameters look like this:
srcPath = "E:\WorkingFolder\MyAddIn\GISTMPConnection.sde";
in_features = "APEX_SWAT_COMP_HUC8";
out_layer = "ApexSwatCompare_layer";
Appreciate any help.

Hi,
How to create featurelayer you can find in ArcGIS Pro SDK Snippets
string url = @"E:\WorkingFolder\MyAddIn\GISTMPConnection.sde\ApexSwatCompare_layer";
Uri uri = new Uri(url);
await QueuedTask.Run(() => LayerFactory.Instance.CreateLayer(uri, MapView.Active.Map));

Hi,
Thank you. I encountered "two-step" errors:
1. First, my connections string for the sde was wrong. The correct one was (I renamed the table fearing I was encountering character limit in my name):
string url = @"E:\WorkingFolder\SWATAddIn\MGConnection.sde\MG.dbo.AxSwCompare";
The dot-dbo notation should be specified: "\databaseName.dbo.tableName".
2. Next, the table in sde geodatabase didn't have OBJECTIDs, so ArcGIS Pro was throwing an exception. I have to modify the SQL Server table to add OBJECTIDs as IDENTITY-type.
It was able to load the shapefile after I did the above.
Thanks for the link. It was very helpful. I couldn't have found them on my own.
