I have accidentally found the error in my own code, my input feature class name was missing one character, so the script was unable to find the table to truncate. It seems that I was thrown looking for something else by the error code/decription, when I should have checked the basics first... I had dragged the feature class into my code when running in ArcCatalog hence why it ran fine within. Cheers for the views guys.

Hi All, I am playing around in python and am coming stuck with the arcpy.TruncateTable_management tool, as I can run it fine in the python window in Catalog, but when I run my py script it throws the below error: Executing: TruncateTable "Database Connections\GISADMIN@[email protected]\SDE_SPATIAL.GISADMIN.CAD_WSData_Sewer_DEV\Polygon_1" Start Time: Wed Nov 19 16:07:29 2014 Failed to execute. Parameters are not valid. ERROR 000187: Only supports Geodatabase tables and feature classes Failed to execute (TruncateTable). Failed at Wed Nov 19 16:07:29 2014 (Elapsed Time: 0.03 seconds) When I run the below line in ArcCatalog it runs fine, no errors, and resultant table is empty as expected: >>> import arcpy >>> arcpy.TruncateTable_management(r'Database Connections\GISADMIN@[email protected]\SDE_SPATIAL.GISADMIN.CAD_WSData_Sewer_DEV\SDE_SPATIAL.GISADMIN.Polygon1_1') I find that the error information is not valid as it is able to successfully run within catalog, but not within a py script. Anyone come across this before? Its rather frustrating.

I am now experiencing this problem, has anyone got a solution to this? It appears the 'working solution' posted by Rory has since been deleted??? Cheers

are you able to elaborate on exactly what the standard tech support channels are? Are you talking about [email protected] etc?

I have since worked it out. I use the below folder in the Project window. Just thought I would share for anyone else that may need a hand. Cheers

Hi, Has anyone worked out how to export a dataset to Shapefile from within ArcGIS Pro? The Share tab does not seem to have the shapefile option.... Thanks for your time.

Hi All, Has anyone else noticed the add folder Connection window in ArcGIS Pro is not very intuitive? For example I have an A drive mapped, and it is called Assets Team. But ArcGIS Pro wants to read an alternate name which I had never noticed before. See screenshot below. In ArcCatalog it does not read this alternate name, but instead reads whatever name I had it mapped as. Would this be classed as a bug? Or do I have to get stuck into my IT Dept to get them to name the servers appropriately? Any comments? Cheers -Ben Nathan Duncan‌

Hi Christopher, thanks for your reply. im glad it someone else has had a look and couldnt see it. I thought it would be an obvious one to find, it seems not. Thanks again.

Hi, I am just wondering if anyone knows how to explode a multipart feature? I have a line that has two parts that are separated geographically, and now I want two separate lines in my table. There is the button in ArcMap but I cannot find it in ArcGIS Pro Prerelease. Anyone done this before?

Hi Josh, Any chance you can elaborate on where you are 'right clicking and then "Add to Project"'? How are you doing this step? I am in the same boat as OP, coming to terms with the fact that there is no ArcCatalog window docked so I can drag and drop from our SDE directly. Cheers

Hi All, I am just dipping my toe into the waters to see if ArcGIS Pro will be useful for my workflows, and I have hit a wall already. Has anyone worked out how to use versioning in Pro? In ArcDesktop we do our edits, press save edits, then reconcile then post, worked fine. but with Pro there is no such buttons. I have added the data via a database connection which has my version specified, so it should be obvious. Anyone been able to get this working? Cheers Ben Nathan Duncan‌

Just reviving this thread as I have recently done the intro to geoprocessing scripts course, and am interested in creating a form type applet thing for data entry. Has anyone created a form for data entry? Can you please provide a screen grab to see if its the type of thing we are looking do develop and implement? I have attached the hand written form that is submitted by the field staff, which we plot a point in the GIS and enter the attributes. Currently the data is entered into the attributes table directly, and its not a very 'neat' way of doing this. Before I started with this organisation they apparently had a VBA script type form which is now outdated/obsolete with the new versions of ArcGIS (10+). Anyone out there that can show me what is possible? [ATTACH=CONFIG]32754[/ATTACH] Thanks -Ben

"Name" in ('New York', 'Los Angeles') This is the SQL I use often as sometimes the list can get quite long, and writing "Name" = XXX OR "Name" = XXX OR... over and over gets tedious 😄

I have about 100 pump stations mapped over our local government area, and they are all labeled appropriately PUMP 1 to Pump 99. I have created a grid over my map, and I am hoping to somehow automatically spit out a chart or something that looks something like this: [TABLE="class: grid, width: 15%"]Pump IDGRIDPUMP 1A4PUMP 2G10PUMP 3C2PUMP 4F7 [/TABLE] Is this something that can be done? Or do I have to save the map then manually type the grid reference into excel then paste a copy of this table into the data frame? Any hints or tips? Cheers -Ben

This question was raised again here at work, and a solution was found here. Just tidying up my threads and thought I would mark it as solved with the solution used. Cheers
