Arcpy script not working in fme flow

Some more details would be helpful… Any error messages?

am getting this error 

Looks like either the batch file or the Python scripts fails, for whatever reason. Unfortunately it’s not possible to say why without knowing the contents.

Are you sure that the path to the .bat and .py files exists on your Flow instance, and that the Flow service account has the appropriate permissions on those folders?

@echo Run 
"C:\apps\ArcGIS\bin\Python\Scripts\propy.bat" D:\FME\resources\scripts\REFACTOR\Point_Removal_Code.py
@echo Finished
 This is my batch file. All the Python scripts in this location are available and working fine. Only the ArcPy script is having an issue. That’s why I’m unsure whether FME Flow can properly access ArcPy.

Exit code 1 from a batch in FME Form essentially means “the command failed”, so the key is why ArcPy (via propy.bat) is failing, not FME itself.

Does the ArcPy run in arcgis python interpreter?

propy.bat relies on ArcGIS Pro’s conda environment. Add the CALL to force full activation of ArcPRO python environment

@echo Run

CALL "C:\apps\ArcGIS\bin\Python\Scripts\propy.bat" "D:\FME\resources\scripts\REFACTOR\Point_Removal_Code.py"

@echo Finished

after trying this i didn’t get exit code 1 error but amm getting this error -----Run started at Thu 06/11/2026  5:46:11.89

Could it be that ArcGIS hasn’t been licensed and/or activated for the Flow service account?
