can any one answers me why "Layer to KML" doesn't work in the modelBuilder of ArcGIS pro while it works as a normal tool at the same time it works also probably in the modelBuilder of ArcMap?

"KML to Layer" doesn't give any output when it's used as in the modelBuilder of ArcGIS pro while it gives a result when it's used as a normal tool in ArcGis Pro & ArcMap & even when the modelBuilder is in ArcMap, it gives a right results

There are lots of required parameters for the tool, have you specified them as model parameters in your model?

Maybe showing the model might help

It's a very simple model.

I select the feature, then using "make a feature layer" using "layer to KML".

[DanPatterson_Retired]

something must be missing, why would you make a model that uses only one tool? and if it did, did you specify the input parameters to the tool?

[MohammedHegazy1]

1st, it was a part of a big model, but when it doesn't work, i extract it out in a separate model to investigate the reasons.

the simple model is as per the below photo

Where you able to figure this one out?

For me, the Layer to KML tool works and exports a KMZ file if I run the Model within ModelBuilder, however, if I run it from the tool box it does not export anything... Weird 

Thanks

I know you posted this a few years ago, but I am getting this too.  Did you find a work around, I want to run it from toolbox like a geoprocessing tool as I have set parameters, but the layer to kml wont work from there like you said

Has there been any updates regarding this issue? I am experiencing the exact same problem.

[DianaKing001]

I would also like to know if this has been solved.  I want to run my model from the toolbox (like a geoprocessing tool) as I have set parameters for the uses to input.  However it falls over when I do the layer to kml.
However if I hard code my parameters in the model and then run from the model builder window it works.
This seemed to be the same issue that some else posted.
