ArcGIS Pro 3.0.2: How to configure a “cost” for network dataset while working with the model builder?

 

I couldn’t figure out how to configure a “cost” for network dataset while working with the model builder. It appears that there are no sufficient tools in the model builder to perform this sort of things. Am I correct?

That's correct.  You can only configure network dataset properties in the Pro UI.  You can't change them from Model Builder or Python.

If you need to edit your network in an automated process, one thing you can do is create a set of network dataset XML templates with the variations of properties you want.  In Model Builder, you can use the Create Network Dataset From Template tool to create the network with the desired template.  However, this approach requires creating a limited set of templates in advance using the Pro UI to configure the attributes. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/network-analyst/create-network-dataset-from-... 

Maybe if you explain further what you're really trying to do, I can better advise on the approach to take.
