KML File Load Issue

[sudheersakamuri]

Dear Community,

I getting below error when I am trying to load KML file into Qlik sense.

The file you are attempting to load is corrupt. Check the file for errors and try again.

Error code:3002

When I load the same KML file in Google Earth Pro it's working fine.

Kindly suggest if there is any other way we can achieve Area Layer Map.

Best Regards,

Sudheer

Is there a possibility to share the KML?

Hi! have you tried to use an online KML validator (e.g., https://geoxml.io) or tools like XML Notepad to ensure there are no syntax errors in the file?

Hi @joostvanegmond7 ,

As the file size is large I am not able to upload the file here.

Hi @diegozecchini ,

Thank you for the response.

https://geoxml.io is not opening and can't find any proper validator online.

Kindly let me know if you have any validator if you have it handy please.

Hi , why don't you use Google Earth (Desktop version)? it is one of the most user-friendly tools for loading and validating KML files.

Open Google Earth Pro click on File > Open, browse and select your KML file.

Google Earth will attempt to parse and display the KML file.
If the file has structural issues, Google Earth will prompt an error message specifying the line number and description of the problem.
Common issues flagged include malformed tags, incorrect nesting, or invalid coordinates. Check the layers in the Places panel to verify they are correctly structured.

kind regards,
Diego

you can try also QGIS which is a free and open-source Geographic Information System (GIS) here https://qgis.org/download/

Thank you @diegozecchini for the response.

I tried google earth pro and found some errors in the KML file and asked GIS team to provide correct KML file.
