Google-earth-plugin and DynamicMapService

Question

Hi,

was anyone able to get a    esri.arcgis.gmaps.DynamicMapServiceLayer  running on the GoogleMaps-API + Google-Earth-Plugin, e.g. on a maptype with G_SATELLITE_3D_MAP) ?

It works fine with KML but refuses to display my shapefiles.
😞

Hi
on ArcGIS Server you can publish you map service like a KML link (if are abilitates capabilites). 
This link will be load on ArcGIS Explorer (Add Content -> KML network links) and also on Google Earth.

If you want display data on 3D for my experience that's the quikly way

You can consume a KML service as follows, for example:

http://servername/arcgis/services/foldername(if exists)/service_name/MapServer/KmlServer?Composite=true&LayerIDs=0

You can read some documentation here

Hi again,esri.arcgis.gmaps.DynamicMapServiceLayer is part of the esri extensions for google maps, I believe (but not completely sure) it can't run on google earth

Hmmm...that´s what I thought.
Why don't you enable the kml capabilities on the mapservice you are using to publish your spatial data? In this way you could be able to display your data with a request to the kml url

Hmm...would the data attached to the mapservice be still available then? I have a lot of columns I wanted to display using the google chart-api. I know that I have "clicked" KML when I created my Mapservice, so it should have this capability, but how can I make use of this "capability" ?  I did not find a way yet.
