Choosing Field in Python Script Tool using ArcGIS Pro

Question

I am writing a script to quickly split large FCs and make them shareable. So I need the tool needs to know what the FC name is and What the Field Name is to split the FC into manageable segments.

To make the Field Name a dropdown would I need to have the user choose a FC and run the tool then have a second tool pop up with the Field Names available?

Answer 1

Set the 'Dependency' property for the field input parameter to be the table input parameter.

See the information under the 'Dependency' heading at: Setting Script Tool Parameters
