How do I know if a geoprocess will use up ArcGIS Online credits?
How do I know if a geoprocess will use up ArcGIS Online credits?
Some ArcGIS Pro geoprocesses are cloud based meaning that they run on an Esri managed could service. Such tools may have limitations as to input file sizes and processing speed.
Some cloud based geoprocesses make use of credits. These tools will have one or two gold circle icons next to their tools. Note that users have a limited set of credits so use these tools wisely!
To estimate the number of credits a cloud based geoprocess might consume, click the estimate credits link at the top of the tool. Note that the link will not pop up until you populate the geoprocessing fields (the tool needs to know the file size and desired parameters before it can estimate the credits needed).
When computing the estimated credits, the tool will also return you your available credits.

I exported to a shapefile and all NULL values were converted to 0s
A shapefile does not have a placeholder for a NULL value for its attribute table.
For example, when exporting a feature layer with a table join to a shapefile, all numeric NULLs will be converted to 0s and all text NULLs will be converted to empty text.
