ArcGIS Pro 2.7 API Reference Guide
CreateRelationship Method (RelationshipClass)
Example 

ArcGIS.Core.Data Namespace > RelationshipClass Class : CreateRelationship Method
The Row from the origin table.
The Row from the destination table.
Creates a new relationship between the two specified rows. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
Syntax
public Relationship CreateRelationship( 
   Row originRow,
   Row destinationRow
)
Public Function CreateRelationship( _
   ByVal originRow As Row, _
   ByVal destinationRow As Row _
) As Relationship

Parameters

originRow
The Row from the origin table.
destinationRow
The Row from the destination table.

Return Value

A Relationship representing the pair of related rows.
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
originRow or destinationRow is null.
This relationship class does not support this operation. For example, it is a virtual relationship class.
A geodatabase-related exception has occurred.
Remarks
For relationships of type RelationshipCardinality.OneToOne and RelationshipCardinality.OneToMany that do not have user-attributes defined, no intermediate table will be created to store relationships between the rows with corresponding origin foreign and destination foreign key values. Instead, the origin row's primary key value will be written into the destination row's origin foreign key field.
