How do I write an Esri SDE feature class to a new feature class and include attachments?

I need to write an existing feature class to a new feature class (with some modifications) in an Esri SDE database and require that the attachments to be included and properly linked.

 

When I write out to the new feature class, none of the attachments appear to be persisted in the __ATTACH table. What do I need to do so that the new feature class retains the attachments?

@ab_crd​ It is a little tricky to pull together the primary feature class and the attachments. This tutorial should walk you through the steps.

@Mark Stoakes​  Thanks Mark, I had a look at that tutorial but in the workbench, there is a 'PATH' reader that points to a folder. Our attachments are stored in the database so I'm a little unsure how to change that PATH to point to the database and the feature class. In the meantime, I'll have to have another look at the tutorial to see if there are any hints.

@Mark Stoakes​ I have the same situation as @ab_crd​ , I need to migrate from one Esri file gdb schema to a different one and include existing file attachments. Do you have any resources that can help with this?

@ab_crd Did you ever figure this out?
