The General toolset contains tools for performing general data management operations. The toolset contains tools for combining feature classes or tables; renaming, copying, or deleting datasets; finding or deleting duplicate or identical records; sorting records; and uploading files to a portal.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
Appends to, or optionally updates, an existing target dataset with multiple input datasets. Input datasets can be feature classes, tables, shapefiles, rasters, or annotation or dimension feature classes. | |
Makes a copy of the input data. | |
Creates a view in a database based on an SQL expression. | |
Permanently deletes data. All types of geographic data supported by ArcGIS, as well as toolboxes and workspaces (folders and geodatabases), can be deleted. If the specified item is a workspace, all contained items will also be deleted. | |
Deletes records from a feature class or table that have identical values in a set of fields. If the geometry field is selected, feature geometries are compared. | |
Exports an ArcGIS AllSource report to a PDF file. | |
Extracts a subset of data from one geodatabase to another geodatabase or an .xml file. | |
Reports any records in a feature class or table that have identical values in a list of fields, and generates a table listing the identical records. If the Shape field is specified, feature geometries will be compared. | |
Combines multiple input datasets into a single, new output dataset. This tool can combine point, line, or polygon feature classes or tables. | |
Changes the name of a dataset. This includes a variety of data types, including feature dataset, raster, table, and shapefile. | |
Reorders records in a feature class or table, in ascending or descending order, based on one or multiple fields. The reordered result is written to a new dataset. | |
Uploads a file to the active portal. Supported file types are .lyrx, .mapx, .pagx, .pdf, .rptt, .rptx, and .stylx. |
