I was attempting to read a input data list, which along with the dataset path, has some formatted instructions for translation. One of these instructions is the reprojection of attribute values in two columns. I am reading the instructions for the attribute reprojections for the dataset from a value such as this:  I was then reading values into fields, so that I could use them in the csmapattributereprojector as follows:  At this point, FieldNameX has the value of 'Easting', and FieldNameY has the value of 'Northing'. (Just at present, I have hardcoded the source and destination coordiante systems, not attempting to read them from the input, but just choosing them in the input dialog of the csmapattributereprojector).I am using a dynamic schema, so at this point the attribute{1}.name has value of 'Easting' and attribute{2}.name has value of 'Northing'.  My problem is that the csmapattributereprojector does not seem to be reprojecting the values. I have

Hi there, is there any way how to automatic connect all features from AttributeFilter with (each) StatisticCalculator?or maybe any other Idea? I do not want to do it manualy, because the AttributeFilter has about 400 features. Thanks

I have a workspace that I'd like to dynamically write different output formats to: shp, sqlite, fgdb, and AGOL. I have no problems doing it for shp and sqlite but when it comes to fgdb I’m having an issue.One of my data sources - features - has multiple destination feature classes by featureClasssName attribute. The attribute schema for all features are the same but their fme_geometry are different.That is where my problem lies with the file geodatabase api writer.If I make it dynamic, the feature type name parameter changes to default fme_feature_type. If I uncheck the box for dynamic, I can use the featureClassName attribute as feature types parameter but there is no dynamic geometry parameter.Most of the samples of using feature type schema mapper samples I’ve found show single geometry. I’ve attached my workspace template here in case someone wants to take a stab at it. Screenshot of wokspace is below.Any suggestions or links to community page are appreciated. Thanks! 

Hi,I want to clip a large ECW file which is about 2 GB in size. It consist of aerial imagery around a river in my country.Secondly I have a shapefile which is the river body. Now I want to clip my ECW with this shapefile. See the attached figure as illustration.I foresee that just clipping the ECW with this shapefile will take a long time. Do you have any advice to speed up this process?I was thinking about the following:- Use RasterTiler and create an attribute which will function as a Group By attribute in the clipper. I hope this will make it possible to perform parallel processing within the clipper?-Use 'Clippers first' and drop my shapefile reader at the top of my readers. I saw this suggestion elsewhere at this forum.-Not all features in my shapefile overlap with my aerial imagery. Maybe I could filter them before entering the Clipper.Thanks for you help in advance!

Hello,can someone tell me please, or indicate where is described the meaning and differences of the attributes of the .owns and the .xsi_nil? i know that are boolean, but what do they mean and what is the difference that distinguishes them from each other? thank youBest regards.

During creating fme list I get python error:Attempts from my side:and:and even this:maybe the issue with data in my python list (data) ? but it is just array which contain text data. 

Actually i have to prepare a touristique card so i need to prepare a legend and put some figurative symbols on the map so it will be more descriptif and give the user more information . if someone have any ideas of how to do it please. i'm using a shapefile of a country as a reader and i want to get a shapefile as a writer . thanks

I am having some issues with the 2020 install and i have had to move over to a different PC. I migrated everything fine, but when i open the workspaces, the first thing that occurs is the feature readers try and find the old database and then drop all the feature types that were previously being read. Some of these have 10 or more specific features, all with multiple links so it will take a long time to try and re-link them in, is there any way i can change the parameter without opening it, then open it up?

Hellocan someone tell me or where the meaning and differences of the attributes are described, as well as the values they receive?for example .owns and .xsi_nil are boolean, ok, but what do they mean and what is the difference that distinguishes them from each other?and the others?.about (xml_buffer).nilReason (xml_buffer).gml_remoteSchema (xml_buffer).xlink_href (xml_buffer).xlink_tittle (xml_buffer).owns (xml_boolean).xsi_nil (xml_boolean).DateTime (xml_datetime)  thank youBest regards.

Hey Everyone,I'm trying to do some javascript work with FME Server. I can't seem to connect to my server that runs FME Server. I have the FMEServer.init method set up window.onload but I get the attached error. The onload code is below too, the FMEServer.init portion is near the bottom.  window.onload = function(){debugger;require(["esri/map", "esri/toolbars/draw","esri/graphic", "esri/geometry/webMercatorUtils","esri/symbols/SimpleLineSymbol", "esri/symbols/SimpleFillSymbol","dojo/_base/Color", "dojo/dom", "dojo/on", "dojo/domReady!"], function(Map, Draw,Graphic, webMercatorUtils,SimpleLineSymbol, SimpleFillSymbol,Color, dom, on){map = new Map("mapDiv",{basemap: "hybrid", //Select the basemapcenter: [-155.114166, 70.27], //Enter the coordinates to center the mapzoom: 7, //Set the default zoomminZoom: 4,//Set the minimum zoom levelsmartNavigation: false});map.on("load", function(){toolbar = new Draw(map);dojo.connect(toolbar, "onDrawEnd", addToMap);on(dom.byId("draw"), "click", drawPol

Hi, I was using arcpy inside fme workbench. Till yesterday everything was good. Now today , FME python 27 has been deprecated and 'im not able to import arcpy module. Is there any workaround for this?

I just found the "Enable Cache" option on the FeatureReader, but it's not entirely clear from the documentation when this cache is renewed.Assume I have set the "Cache Timeout" parameter to a very long time, say a week or longer.Will the cache only remain during a session, or will it still exist when I close the workbench, and reopen it later that day?Will the cache still exist when I close the workbench, close down the machine, and reopen the workbench the next day?The reason for asking is that some remote datasets are pretty heavy and only change occasionally, so I wish I could minimise the number of times reading it.Note: I am not talking about workbench feature caching here!

Hey all, I'm struggling to get an Automation set up on FME server 2020. Whenever I add a workspace it states that there are no connections available, but I have a connection set up on the server to a MariaDB database. So far I have found this: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/109765/known-issue-fme-server-resourcesautomations-could.html  So updated to the latest FME Server but it doesn't work Not sure I am missing something simpe or not! Thanks Joe  

I am trying to construct my first custom transformer and have some issue with the schema handling.To explain what I am doing in my transformer:The SQLCreator is pulling information from a PostgreSQL table. The information retrieved are used to extract polygons from a Oracle database in the subsequent FeatureReader (FR_Municipalities). here the requested feature type is static. Cleaning up some attributes and joining a timestamp from the initial PostgreSQL table, the polygons are used to extract data from another table in the Oracle database. The difference here is, that the user has to have the possibility to select the feature type in the last FeatureReader(FR_AnalysisData).Since the feature type is based on a published parameter, there is no specific output port, but all goes trough the generic port. Here I have the problem that basically all attributes should be pulled, but how to say that in the dialogue where I specify the attributes to expose?Is there some sort of wildcard to do

I am forget the password of my workbench . how to get it reset and get the data in to it.

I was looking to do a data transformation task by making use of the following high level workflow: Run a data audit to compile a database table of filepaths of MapInfo tab filesCompile data about the file discovered, included a field as to whether to transform this particular dataset (Field “TransformRequired” with Yes or No values).After our data audit is complete, use the Database table as an input list for the transformation, making use of the FeatureReader transformerUse a MapInfo Tab writer with a dynamic schema, using the “Schema from Schema feature” option as the Schema source. The problem I have is that the input table list will include MapInfo tables which have the same file name, but which are in different file system folders. The paths I am trying to read in include: \\Input\\GDA2020\\MapInfoV16\\PARCEL_VIEW.tab\\Input\\GDA2020\\MapInfoV17\\PARCEL_VIEW.tab\\Input\\GDA94\\PARCEL_VIEW_GDA94.TAB\\Input\\GDA94\\PLAN_ZONE.tab When reading the list into the FeatureReader transform

Is it possible in a startup script to access incoming shapefiles and set a private parameter based on a shapefiles attribute?For example, I am a reading shapefiles and at the same time I want to query a rather large database based off a unique id that the shapefiles contain. I'm currently using the SQLCreator because it seems to be the fastest database reader.I was thinking within the startup script, I could set a private or published parameter to a shapefile attribute, then in the SQLCreator, I could have a sql statement, that has db.attname = $(newParameter). Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

We have a startup python script that will run a kinit process using a keytab file on the server. Unfortunately it appears that even though the kinit was successful and the Kerberos ticket was created correctly, FME is not able to see the newly created ticket in the Kerberos ticket cache. Once the current FME process terminates any new FME processes after wards can see the new ticket. It seems to me the Kerberos ticket cache is read into memory with the initial FME.exe starts and updates are not known about by the FME process. Any idea how make the ticket cache update during the current FME process?  Any ideas or work arounds would be helpful! Current work around idea is to have a separate FME process run separately to generate the Kerberos tickets.  Thanks in advance!!

Fme server app return a failure message if I use drag and drop way to put my input;Hi All,Despite the fact when I running an app and putting the input data for example like that "D:\\Roads_Input.gdb" which way is more diffecult to end user, the app will run successfully with no issues, but When I use the easier way which is drag and drop the gdb file, The app return a failure message!What might be the issue here? Best,Lubna

FME server fails to display the fme app result url directly after running the app successfully,Hi All,Why the FME server fails to display the fme app result url directly after running the app successfully, I think It’s difficult to the end user to go back to resources with user name and password to download the result of the used app! What do you think?Best,Lubna 

I have data pulled from a DB and need to create a multi-page Word or PDF document. What I've got so far is arranging my attributes in the order I want them and sending them through the AttributeExploder so each Attribute can be in a list or table for vertical formatting.First problem: Once the Features go through the AttributeExploder, they are no longer sorted in the sequence I need them.Second problem: I need each Feature/Attribute set to be on a separate page, so separated tables. I've tried using the MSWordStyler, which puts everything in 1 big table, but I need to insert a page break in between each Feature, so a separate table for each. Any guidance or samples are appreciated.

Hi,I have meter data that is currently processed by FME into 15 minutes values, 96 values being in one day.I have been asked to identify if there are 3 or more identical values in the 02:00 - 04:00 that would be the same, as this may prove that the meter has flatlined and is no longer recording the flow.I've not done this before - can anyone please suggest any FME workflow which might identify identical consecutive values and add a value to an attribute? I attach some test data whilst I try and figure it out myself. CheersN

I’m trying to emulate a CAD command for offset.  Essentially I want a parallel offset of a line with no curve stroking on the outside angle.  Similar to bufferer but with the ability to make the stroking density a value of 0.  Any easy way to do that?
