BUG

Using Field Calculator on a feature service in ArcGIS Pro changes all other field values to NULL

Last Published: April 26, 2020

Description

An issue has been found that impacts feature service layers in ArcGIS Pro 1.0.

When using the Field Calculator to calculate a field against a web feature layer (layer or table from a feature service), the fields that are not updated by the Field Calculator are set to NULL.

Note:
This only applies when working directly against the feature service. If working directly against other data sources such as a file geodatabase, an enterprise geodatabase, or shapefiles, this issue does not occur.

At most, the number of rows affected by this issue is the number specified by the 'MaxRecordCount' property in the connected portal or server. This is set to 1000 rows by default.

Managed fields (such as OID, GlobalID, or editor tracking fields) are not affected by this issue.
