Expose option to preserve or not preserve global ID

Open MikeMillerGIS opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

We need to define in the source to target map an option to preserve the global id.

Scenario is here: I am moving 1 GN feature into two UN features. Only one of those UN features needs the global ID image

@MikeMillerGIS This would preserve the GlobalID only for specific rows?

Just the globalid field

@MikeMillerGIS I thought that the current tool attempts to preserve GlobalIDs when they exist on the source data. When the source doesn't have GlobalIDs, you're presented with a warning "cannot preserve GlobalIDs" - isn't this what you want?

no, we need an option to turning this off

@MikeMillerGIS can you make that a data assistant setting vs. data mapper setting?
