Additional Information
The issue of KML being an unsupported format is a known limitation. Similarly, the export option on the home application in Portal for ArcGIS does not support KML. This is because KML is not an export format that the createReplica operation supports. Hosted downloads uses the createReplica operation for a more robust and reliable download experience. If users have critical workflows that depend on KML files, continue to using the existing download system.Workaround
Uncheck the Hosted Downloads check box as it uses the ArcGIS Hub download system for generating download files. This system uses the service's query operation instead of createReplica.
