  Moving / offsetting point locations using ArcPy or ModelBuilder?

I have updated x,y for about 50,000 points.

How can I move the points to their new location at once (not one by one)?

I know there is a way of creating a new .shp from updated x,y but that won't work since the points are services and part of energized electrical system. I just need to move them to their new location.

If you have python + shapely + geopandas on your system, and the new X-Y values are stored in columns of the attribute table, it'd be as quick as:

from shapely.geometry import Point
import geopandas

# adjust the values as necessary
xcol = 'new_x'
ycol = 'new_y'

(
 geopandas.read_file('path/to/file.shp')
 .assign(geometry=lambda df: df.apply(
 lambda row: Point(row[xcol], row[ycol]),
 axis=1
 )
 .to_file('path/to/shifted.shp')
)

  @user139471 if you have conda installed or can install conda, geopandas is pretty easy to get these days. In either case, I'll leave this answer up for future readers who have similar problems
