.kml not downloading from URL

Hello,

I'm trying to download a file from a URL. When I click on the URL or copy/paste, the file automatically downloads to the folder chrome has designated. But when I try to do this through the download tool, I get headers. I ultimately want to run this kml file into the workflow and match any observations that spatially interact within the .kml universe.

Hey @CandidDataScientist, I was able to download a kml file from a URL, and bring it into my workflow. I've attached screenshots of what I did below. I basically had to download it to a directory, and then bring it into my workflow as in input. From there, my workflow could reference it as a kml file. If you just download it into your workflow, it will be in XML, so you would need to parse out what you are looking for. Hope this helps. Good luck!

Hi @CandidDataScientist, can you confirm that there is a spatial object currently within this KML file? When I just now downloaded it from the URL and tried to make it an input, I received the below error.

Hi @JoBen.

Thanks for replying. I tried to attach the .kml file but apparently we can't attach a .kml to this forum. If you run the URL from chrome, it does automatically download the file and it is a .kml.
