Delete Rule (Utility Network)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Permanently deletes a rule from a utility network.

Caution should be taken when deleting rules that support existing features or objects in a utility network. Existing network features that rely on deleted rules are marked with errors when the network topology is re-enabled to indicate there is no network rule to support the relationship.

Usage

  • When working with an enterprise geodatabase, the connected ArcGIS Enterprise portal account must be the portal utility network owner.

  • The network topology must be disabled.

  • When working with an enterprise geodatabase, the Input Utility Network parameter value must be from a database connection established as the database utility network owner.
