Spatial join on closest always join the last feature

Hi all,

since I updated the latest arcpro version 3.2.0, I am getting a very odd error.

I have a point layer and when I want to perform a spatial join(closest) using another point layer, the join is made only on the last feature on the joined layer.

all points on the first layer are join the last feature on the second layer.

I did not have this issue before, but this happened after the updating Arcgis pro.

I appreciate if someone have a solution to this issue.

a quick updated,
I noticed this issue happens when I used spatial join from the context menu on the layer. I tried the from geoprocessing tools, the spatial join is okey.

Without your data or seeing how you ran the tool its just speculation, I would explore if your data has changed in some way, maybe the data you are joining is multi-part?

thanks for your comment,
I right way imagined the second layer is multipoint. But it is not, the second layer is single point (not mutlipoint).
