Hello community,I am currently facing problems uploading files to FME Flow. Previously I was handling this with a “FMEFlowResourceConnector”. One of our instances was now updated to version FME Flow 2024.2 (Build 24783 - win64).As the transformer “FMEFlowResourceConnector” was deprecated in FME 2024.1.0 (and it anyway refused to work with the transformer) I tried to go directly through the Flow REST API with a POST request. My request:/fmerest/v3/resources/connections/{connection}/filesys/{path}In my concrete example:/fmerest/v3/resources/connections/FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA/filesys/Test I get this as a response:"message": "Error communicating with FME Flow host XXXXXX.\nContact your FME Flow administrator who can investigate the log files for further details.\nAlso see: http://fme.ly/e100007#error-communicating-with-fme-server-hostConnection refused: connect" However, when I try the same approach on my local installed Flow (same version), it works using this POST request. Does anyone h
Hello,I’m looking to trigger a workspace with a webhook which generates zipped data using the data download service which then provides that data link URL in a customized email to the user.I’ve setup an Automation to be triggered by a webhook which will run a workspace that generates the data (and outputs the information for the email with an Automation writer). I’ve got this launching another script that uses the first script’s JOBID along with an HTTPCaller to get the URL link which is then output using an Automation writer. This is finally passed through a Log and then on to an Email external action that uses the email information and the URL to generate a custom email with the download URL.However, when I trigger the automation, no URL is generated (even though the process works) as the workspace is not run with the Data Download service. I assume it defaults to Job Submitter. Is there a way to run a workspace in an Automation and make it use the data download service?If not, how c
The trigger is an incoming IMAP email with potentially more than one attachment. I wasn’t able to use the “Send Event As JSON” option because the email body is being delivered as HTML which fouls up the JSON parser in FME Flow. So I’m sending individual components of the email to a workbench+From:{email.from}+Subject:{email.subject}+Sent:{email.sent}+BodyType:{email.contentType}+Attachments:{email.attachments}+Body:{email.body} I’m splitting up the individual sections of the delivered data in the workbench using StringSearchers with Regex. I wind up with a string with the location that email attachments have been saved to in Flow, which is something like this:$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_TEMP)20250121124721-IMAP_Email_Testing-FW_Attachment_test-98e024d4-2316-4cd5-9905-1eb756d02a09I’ve been struggling with what to do with this string in order to access the attachments to save them somewhere on the network. The ultimate goal is to have the inbound email trigger a workbench that automatically cre
FME Flow 2024.1 Build 24612 - distributed setupI’m raising with Safe but if anyone has any bright ideas before Vancouver wakes up :-)Recently upgraded our pre-production environment to the above version. Noticed an issue however with some jobs getting stuck in a queued state and never moving on. The jobs are triggered by automation that runs every 10 minutes and assigns the jobs to a specific queue which in turn has two engines available. Sometimes the job gets submitted and runs successfully, sometimes the job gets put in a queue where it remains forever. e.g. the job triggered at 11:20 was processed successfully, the job triggered at 11:30 ended up in the queue, the job triggered at 11:40 was processed as expected The automation log (running in debug mode) doesn’t show any errors or warnings, the queued jobs show as submitted but with no other information Other perhaps relevant information, the jobs should also expire once in the queue beyond a certain length of time and that is not
An automation reads a message from a JMS queue and should trigger a workspace, the message content is passed as an automation parameter. This message is valid json, however we’ve had some cases where the message is something along the lines of{ "ID": "1234", "Notes": "Careless typing} includes a right hand curly brace"}This is valid json but the job fails with a status of FME_FAILURE and a statusMessage of "extra characters after close-brace". How should the message be passed to the workspace if json like the above example leads to failure to submit?
I have an workbench published in FME Flow which gathers parameters then passes them in an automation to workbenches which use them. I am using an Automations writer in it. When I try to run it in FLOW it gives the error:AUTOMATIONS writer: FME Flow error: `FME Flow error: `UNPROCESSABLE_REQUEST(Automations) Route "NewFeatureType" does not exist''I have never used this writer type before. Does it need to be registered on the server or something?
I’m using an IMAP email trigger for an automation where I’m using the content of the email in a workbench with the goal of delivering a JSON payload to Cityworks to automatically create a new Work Order.I’ve set up a User Parameter in the workbench to receive data from the the email. When I use the “Event as JSON” option for the parameter in FME Flow, the message body is being delivered to the workbench as HTML. This crashes the JSON being delivered. Everything up to the body is fine, but the message body doesn’t make it over, and everything that follows the body is also lost.I’ve been able to get the message content into a workbench by using the individual headings such as “Email Body”, “Email Subject”, “Sent from Address” headings in Flow as the parameters to pass, but doing it this way does not allow you to use the JSON transformers in the workbench.Essentially what I am needing to do is receive JSON formatted data in a workbench from the IMAP email trigger, create attributes from
Hi, is it possible to upload a file to the FME Flow shared resource folder through the Flow REST API? I tried to setup a POST request for fmerest/v3/resources/connections/<resource>/filesys/<path> but get a 415 Unsupported Media Type Response. I used the following parameters in Postman:In this example I want to upload the text file “test.txt” to the shared resource folder “Test”. Is there a problem with the request, or is this the wrong approach for uploading a file via the REST API? The goal would be to provide a means for external applications to upload files that are then processed by FME Flow. Thank you for your help!
