I was trying to retrieve the path to the network dataset and pass this on to geoprocessing tool as a parameter. But the solution is quite simple and I just have to pass on the actual network dataset layer object as a parameter. So basically this works:</P><P>&nbsp;</P><LI-CODE lang="csharp"> public void RunGpTool(string toolPath, NetworkAnalystLayer ndLayer) { var args = Geoprocessing.MakeValueArray(ndLayer); IGPResult result = await Geoprocessing.ExecuteToolAsync(toolPath, args, flags: GPExecuteToolFlags.AddOutputsToMap); }</LI-CODE> Tue, 20 Dec 2022 22:58:26 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-sdk-questions/retriving-paths-for-network-datasets-in-enterprise/m-p/1242847#M9201 StephenCochrane 2022-12-20T22:58:26Z
