| fieldTypeInteger | Int32 |
| fieldTypeOID | Int32 |
| fieldTypeSingle | Float |
| fieldTypeDouble | Double |
| fieldTypeDate | DateTime |
| fieldTypeGeometry | SpatialObj |
| fieldTypeBlob | Blob |
| fieldTypeString | WString if less than 256, otherwise V_WString. |
| fieldTypeGUID | WString if less than 256, otherwise V_WString. |
| fieldTypeGlobalID | WString if less than 256, otherwise V_WString. |
| fieldTypeXML | V_String |
Write
Write records from Designer into a Feature Class or a table in a FileGeodatabase (.gdb).
Output Options
- Overwrite DB (Drop): Drops an existing database, creates a new database and table, and inserts records.
- Append Existing: Inserts records into an existing table.
- Delete Data and Append: Truncates existing table and inserts records.
- Overwrite Table (Drop): Drops an existing table, creates a new table, and inserts records.
- Create New Table: Adds a new table to an existing database.
- Update: Warn on Update Failure: Updates an existing record based on an Object ID and throws a warning when the UPDATE fails.
- Update: Error on Update Failure: Updates an existing record based on an Object ID and throws an error when the UPDATE fails.
- Update: Insert if New: Updates an existing record based on an Object ID, or inserts if it's a new record.
Projection: WGS 84 is the default.
OID Field: Accepts Byte, Int16, and Int32 Alteryx data types, and stores it as a fieldTypeOID.
Data Types: Data from Designer convert to these types in .gdb files:
