Description: Bringing this idea to life would significantly enhance the user experience and streamline workflows within ArcGIS Pro. This feature is specifically aimed at users who work extensively with Enterprise Geodatabases and have a need to register multiple feature classes efficiently.
Current Workflow and Challenges: When a database containing existing database feature classes is registered as an Enterprise Geodatabase, the current process involves two steps:
This existing workflow presents several challenges:
Proposed Enhancement: Introduce a feature in ArcGIS Pro that prompts users to register all existing database feature classes with the Enterprise Geodatabase simultaneously upon initial registration. This could be implemented as an optional dialog box or a checkbox within the registration wizard.
Benefits:
Illustrative Workflow:
Conclusion: Implementing this feature would align with ESRI's commitment to improving user experience and enhancing the capabilities of ArcGIS Pro. By addressing a common pain point for users, this enhancement would not only streamline workflows but also make advanced GIS functionalities more accessible to a wider audience. The time savings, reduction in errors, and improved accessibility would collectively contribute to a more efficient and user-friendly platform, reinforcing ArcGIS Pro's position as a leading tool in the geospatial industry.
@DannyMac - you can run the "Register with Geodatabase" GP Tool in Batch mode in ArcGIS Pro. This might help you optimize the workflow you mentioned, and the GP Tool can be saved as an arcpy python script for further customization if required. I hope this helps.
@MarceloMarques Understood, but this doesn't register the existing "Database feature classes" that exist in the database when you choose to Register a Geodatabase, and that's what this feature request is about.
