Usage

  • If the input dataset is from an enterprise geodatabase, it must be from a database connection established as the data owner.

  • Attachments must first be enabled using this tool before they can be added using the Add Attachments tool.

  • If the geodatabase feature class or table already has attachments enabled, a warning message will appear and no processing will occur.

  • Datasets that have replica tracking enabled and are nonversioned with archiving enabled will have archiving and replica tracking enabled on the attachments table.

  • Datasets that are branch versioned will not be registered as branch versioning or have replica tracking enabled on the attachments table automatically. This can be handled manually by using the Register As Versioned and Enable Replica Tracking tools.
