Hello,
I work on a project that is very repetitive and would like to have a python script for it. I am trying to export a feature class from SDE which contains an expression. The geodatabase has been created and I have the following code,
# Import system modules
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
# Set the workspace
arcpy.env.workspace = "Database Connections\ADMIN Edit.sde\GIS.DBO.SewerCollectionNetwork"
ArcSDE = arcpy.env.workspace
env.overwriteOutput = True
# Set local variables
inFeatures = ['sewer']
outputDatabaseLocation = "C:\Users\gis\Desktop\sewer\CCTV.gdb"
outputFeatureClass = "SewerMains"
delimitedField = arcpy.AddFieldDelimiters(arcpy.env.workspace, "OWNER")
expression = delimitedField + " = 'LOCAL'"
# Export feature class
print("Exporting feature class to CCTV geodatabase")
arcpy.FeatureClassToFeatureClass_conversion(inFeatures, outputDatabaseLocation, outputFeatureClass, expression)
I get the following error,
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "B:\Scripts\Python\ArcSDE Maintenance\CCTV Feature Class.py", line 25, in <module>
arcpy.FeatureClassToFeatureClass_conversion(inFeatures, outputDatabaseLocation, outputFeatureClass)
File "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\ArcPy\arcpy\conversion.py", line 1891, in FeatureClassToFeatureClass
raise e
RuntimeError: Object: Error in executing tool
I have tried using FeatureClassToGeodatabase and FeatureClassToShapefile with success, but I need to be able to add an expression to only export specific values from a field.
Any help will be appreciated.
