arcgis desktop - Assigning point IDs to respective start and end attributes of polyline?


I have two shapefiles, Point and Polyline. I'm trying to populate my polyline layer with the point data ID (systemID) where the lines start to where they end; eg. create two columns (from and to). The lines already have flow direction assigned to them. I am using ArcHydro tools but Arcpy is also fine.


In ArcHydro I have tried using Attribute Tools > Generate From/To Nodes for lines but it creates values for To and From that are not from my point data. My other alternative was using Feature to Vertices and joining the result to my point data table to get the systemID. But then I would have to update the polyline layer as well. I am sure there is a easier way of doing it.


Note: not all the lines have points at the vertices, blank values are fine for them.
