Issue with Load Data Using Workspace in ArcGIS Pro 3.4 – Shape Data Not Appending When Using Expressions

[ShareUser]

Hi All,

I am experiencing an issue with the "Load Data Using Workspace" tool in ArcGIS Pro 3.4.

When using an expression to assign a value to a field in the Mapping worksheet, the tool fails to append the shape data.

For example, using the expression below for the CASE_NO field:

TargetField	FieldType	Expression
CASE_NO	String	!DocName!.split(".")[0]

causes the tool to append the attribute values but not the shape. See the below screenshot:


However, if I use only !DocName! (without .split(".")[0]), 

the shape data is appended correctly. See the below screenshot:
This issue was not present in previous versions (such as ArcGIS Pro 3.3 and earlier), where the same expression worked correctly.

I have attached screenshots for reference, showing the difference in behavior.

Could anyone please confirm if this is a known issue in ArcGIS Pro 3.4? If not, I would appreciate any guidance on resolving it.

Regards,
Sumit

I made a simple version and tried to repo it, but could not.  Do you have any null values in Docname?

Is this an annotation layer?  Could you send me a schema? mmiller@esri.com

Hi @MikeMillerGIS ,

Yes, Source and target are both annotation feature class with Same schema.

You can test this by creating any Annotation feature class in ArcGIS 3.4.

It is working in 3.3 but not in 3.4

Please check and thanks for replying

I was able to repo.  I logged an issue, but would be great if you could log a bug with tech support.
