Remove Join (Data Management)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Removes a join from a feature layer or table view.

Usage

  • The Join parameter value 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 a geodatabase or INFO 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, but rather the source of the table view. For example, if a table view is named TableView1 and points to mytable.dbf, the name of the join will be mytable .

  • When a layer is joined to two tables and the first join is removed, 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 create 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.
