Summary
Evaluates if the input data has a selection and if a certain number of records are selected.
Usage
This tool does not make a selection or evaluate an SQL expression or where clause. It simply checks if a selection set matches a specified value. Use the Select Layer By Attribute tool to make a selection in ModelBuilder. Use the If Field Value Is logical tool to evaluate if the input dataset has records that match a SQL expression or where clause.
This tool is intended for use in ModelBuilder and not in Python scripting.
The tool has two Boolean outputs, True and False. Based on the condition being evaluated one of the two boolean outputs is true and the other false after the tool runs. These boolean outputs have to be set as a precondition to the downstream tools for those to execute if either of the preconditions is true.
