Set attribute rules options

On the project Options dialog box, on the Attribute Rules tab, you can change attribute rules settings for the ArcGIS Pro application. The attribute rules settings are stored in your user profile and are honored for all ArcGIS Pro projects.

Access attribute rules options

To access attribute rules options for the project, complete the following steps:

1. Access the Options dialog box in one of two ways:
   • From an open project, click the Project tab on the ribbon. In the list on the left, click Options.
   • From the left side of the ArcGIS Pro start page, click Settings . In the list on the left, click Options.
2. On the Options dialog box, under the Application heading, click the Attribute Rules tab.
3. Check or uncheck applicable options.
4. Click OK.

   Your settings are saved and the dialog box closes.

Batch calculation and validation attribute rules

Batch calculation and validation options are checked by default.

Rule type

Rule type defines the types of rules that are evaluated.

• Batch Calculation—Batch calculation attribute rules will be evaluated.
• Validation—Validation attribute rules will be evaluated.

Extent

Extent defines how the features are evaluated.

Choose one of the following options:

• Visible Extent—Evaluate the visible extent of the map. Checked by default.
• Full Extent—If the source is a feature service, evaluate the full extent of the feature service. If the source is a geodatabase, evaluate the full extent of the data with attribute rules in the workspace. Unchecked by default.

Modified in version

Evaluate edits made in the current branch version. This option is only available when the source is a feature service with the Version Management capability and connected to a branch version. This option is not available when evaluating rules using the default version. Unchecked by default.

Run asynchronously

When evaluating rules, you can set a preference for how evaluation should occur. This option is only available when the source is a feature service with the Version Management capability and connected to a branch version.

• Unchecked—The evaluation will run synchronously. This option has a shorter time-out and is best used when evaluating an extent with a small number of features requiring calculation or validation. This is the default.
• Checked—The evaluation will run asynchronously. This option dedicates server resources to run the evaluation with a longer time-out. Running asynchronously is recommended when evaluating large datasets that contain many features requiring calculation or validation.
