Thank you, this solution still works with ArcGIS Pro 3.1. The app mentioned updates Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ESRI\ArcGISPro\Licensing or Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ESRI\ArcGISPro\Licensing\Extensions prior to the user clicking the 'Go Pro' button. This list of extensions is just an array of extensions that are owned by our agency'.  The known good ESRI extensions names to use within the registry in the .\Extensions area include:           // Sets up the list of extensions             string[] extList = { "3D Analyst Pro", "Spatial Analyst Pro", "Network Analyst Pro", "Data Interoperability Pro", "Data Reviewer Pro", "Workflow Manager Pro", "JTX Pro", "Aviation Airports", "Location Referencing Pro", "Production Mapping" };            ...

If you have not done an Add-In before, spend a few minutes to understand how the projected is wired together. As a start look at the config.daml file and understand what the XML tags mean. One key, is everytime you rebuild the Add-In for debug you need to updated the <Date> tag to a newer date/time, otherwise ArcGIS Pro will not reload the code. Second is that in the <modules> section you define a Module ID, usually in the <insertModule id> tag, this has our className  value that is used to connect the interface (partially designed in the config.daml) to your underlying code. For example, if your className="LoadMyToolCode" then you would need a LoadMyToolCode.cs file in your solution. This cs file usually only has 53 lines since its entire purpose is to load and launch your code module when the button defined in the Config.xml is clicked in ArcGIS Pro.  ... View more

The answer depends on what you want to do with the data. The reply by  GintautasKmieliauskas creates a data source for immedate use with a GP processing. However, if you are just reading a text file into an array to concatenate data, as you mention in your post, you can do it all with standard C# coding. This could be done with the basic old readline, writeline of C or in a modern way using the DataTable data type. If reading from a SQL database table vs. ascii flie suggest using System.Data.SqlClient methods. Simple example at .net - How to read SQL Table data into a C# DataTable - Stack Overflow. ...

If you are using Visual Studio 2022 to build your ArcGIS Pro 3.x package and include a reference to a NuGet packet as a resource you can have problems. If you install the NuGet package on your computer and then reference the DLLs on disk the NuGet references will work. However, if you reference (i.e., add) and NuGet package itself (in Visual Studio), you will receive an XAML error showing, "Error: Could not load file or assembly 'ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework, Culture=neutral' or one of its dependencies at compile time. After upgrading a 2.x add-in to 3.x in Visual Studio check your .csproj file. Recommendation on another post is to removing the False attribute for each DLL in the csproj file.

Since the Add-in is compiled code, e.g., C#, you can reference the application properties with Project.SetProperty and Project.GetEvaluatedProperty(String) Method. Use these rather than config.daml to hold application and user properties specific to the add-in (a.k.a., visual studio project). Since you can reference any location in any file location, recommend using a shared UNC path like \\mydomainserver\mygisfolder\mycustomappfolder<> and store the shared files there. That way you only have one copy for your entire agency. ... View more

To try to find out what is happening you may want to add this to the task that you want to await, If you place a try/catch block around the ENTIRE body of your event handler, then you can prevent any exceptions from bubbling up across that async void boundary. try { await SomeTaskYouWantToAwait(); } catch (Exception ex) { // TODO: put your exception handling stuff here Console.WriteLine($"[TryAsync Error Callback] Our exception handler caught: {ex}")); } ...

In regards to 'seeing' the values set in your XML config file from an Add-in, you can pull the properties from the namespace (e.g., ArcGIS.Desktop.Core.ApplicationOptions) ArcGIS.Desktop.Core Namespace (ArcGIS.Desktop.Core)—ArcGIS Pro OR you could just read the .xml config file just like any other text file from your Add-in.

The Pro.settingsConfig is not actually used with an Add-In, rather it sets default behavior for ArcGIS Pro on startup. The config file is just a human readable text file. The easiest way to point to this is to add the ADMIN_SETTINGS_PATH command line parameter during an ArcGIS Pro silent installation, The second way to configure client machines is by editing the Windows Registry. Use this option if ArcGIS Pro is already deployed or if you don't want to do a silent installation. To configure the client machines, create a string value called AdminSettingsPath in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ESRI\ArcGISPro\Settings. Set the value data to the path of the network share or local folder that contains the deployed Pro.settingsConfig file. Some XML Tags you could include in your config file are shown at https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/get-started/administrator-settings-list.htm Have you considered revising how your Add-In works to take advantage of a Tabbed Interface?   ...
