Remove Join (Data Management)

ArcGIS Pro 3.2 | | Help archive

Summary

Removes a join from a feature layer or table view.

Usage

  • The Join parameter is the name of the table that was joined to the input layer or table view.

    • If the join table was a dBASE file named MyTable.dbf, the join name would be "MyTable"; so to remove it, specify "MyTable".
    • If the join table was an INFO or Geodatabase Table named MyTable2, the Join Name would be "MyTable2"; so to remove it, specify "MyTable2".
    • The join name will not reflect the name of the table view itself, but rather the source of the table view. Therefore, if a table view is named TableView1 and points at mytable.dbf, the name of the join will be "mytable".

  • When a layer is joined to two tables and the first join is removed, then both joins will be removed. For example, Layer1 is joined to TableA. Then Layer1 is joined to TableB. If the join to TableA is removed, the join to TableB is also removed.

  • In ModelBuilder, you can use the Make Feature Layer tool to make a layer from a feature class, and the Make Table View tool to create a table view from an input table or feature class. These layers or table views can then be used as the input to the Add Join and Remove Join tools.
