Automation

The Black line starting from left should align(shown in yellow) with red line.how to accomplish this in fme.Polygon 1 and 2 belongs to one layer and polygon 3 is from another layer. 

If you have an existing automation and need to make a change, you make your changes and publish \\ overwrite in FME Forms. Once you go to the automation and stop it, all parameters are reset to defaults. This happens even to workspaces that were not updated. This has happened the last 2 or 3 releases, currently we are onFME Flow 2023.1Build 23619 - win64

I’ve tried reviewing results from /schedules. This doesn’t seem to include our schedule triggers in automations.Neither /automations or /automations/{id} return the required information.Can anyone point me in the right direction?Thanks!AW 

Has anyone ever encountered this system event message previously?Event Description: Triggered whenever an error message is logged to fmeserver.log.Event Title: Error Message LoggedMessage: Parameter macro error for job requestThis is occurring when a workspace in an automation completes successfully and should be triggering a downstream workspace but instead this message appears in the system events and no workspace is triggered. The parameters in the workspace that is failing to be triggered are not dynamic and have not changed recently. Since the automation has been switched on it has run successfully 139 times but we’ve now seen these messages in 5 of the past 6 runs. FME Flow 2024.1

Hi FME community,I am trying to fanout to a GDB using FME 2025.1.2 in windows.   I keep getting this error :Esri Geodatabase Writer: Feature Type Definition 'd_y_n' was requested, but not defined. Please visit https://www.safe.com/supportGEODATABASE_FILE writer: An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details When i just simply export without fanout it works fine. I have tried removing fme_template_feature_type using attributemanager (even though it is not an attribute in my database) also tried AttributeKeeper.  Nothing seems to work. Thank you   

I have an automation that trigger an HTTP Request to get informations on a job :host.com/fmeapiv4/jobs/{user.id} The HTTP request is send and I get my response : {"id":122,"engineHost":"localhost","engineName":"localhost_Engine1",... ,"elapsedTime":29176,"cpuTime":7687,"cpuPercent":26.346997532218264,"peakMemoryUsage":186314752,"lineCount":2439,"warningCount":27,"errorCount":0,"remoteEngineName":"","remoteEngineJobLogUrl":""}I would like to send an other http request based on the content of the body response :host.com/fmeapiv4/accounts/{runtimeUserID} The runtimeUserID key is a key in the http.body attribute which is a JSON value.I cannot extract some portions of this JSONI have try to get other keygs but it always failed :{http.body}.{runtimeUserID} {http.body.runtimeUserID} {runtimeUserID}and lots of combinations…Is it possible and if so, how to achieve this ?Thank you

I create a simple FME Flow App - the user enters a word to search content. The FME workspace put the results into a html file under Resources/Data. I want put a link to this html file on the Flow App page to allow the user to click the link and open the html file in the browser to see the content. Can this be done?

Hi all,I am struggling to get the following to work. In my IT environment we use APP-v to deploy FME workbench. Now I want to automate the license within the package. So I installed FME workbench but is automatically opens the licensing manager, which is nice but I want to specify the license myself. What file can I make that I can implement in the application so it instantly recognizes its license. I tried the admin guide but did not work. We have floating licenses.So what file can I make to specify the license within the application, so that users don't have to enter it themselves. 

When setting up an automation trigger using Amazon SQS I get the above error. Is this something anyone has seen before? It might be our firewall. We do use a proxy server that has had certificate issues before. Sometimes we have to ignore SSL warnings.

I have FME Automations that use the “FME Flow Schedule”.  In the “FME Flow Schedule”, I am using the Schedule Type “CRON Expression”.  Is there a way to get a report for all the “FME Flow Schedule” from all the FME Automation so that I can know when an FME Automation is scheduled to run?

Currently doing some testing after upgrading FMEFlow to 2025.2.1It appears that the validate button on the JMS trigger now just returns an ‘Invalid Parameter’ message Previously it produced something slightly more descriptive.i.e. Failed to find JMS object / Realm is currently not reachableIs a more detailed message available in a log somewhere, if so where should i look? I have it all set up and working correctly in 2025.2.1, this is just for future reference.

Hello,  So I have a platform that utilizes Fire Hose API for their data stream. My stream will have thousands of changes a second. I need to connect to this stream, clean/filter the data, and have the data end up showing on an ArcGIS webmap. What would the path be? I am not exactly sure how I connect the firehose stream to FME (I have flow and form). My thought process is Connect Firehose to FME (not sure how, not HTTPCaller right?) → Create data stream to process data → connect stream to GeoEvent Server → Display on Webmap? Is my thought process accurate? Any help is appreciated!

Is there any way possible to send an HTTP Response after receiving a webhook trigger in FME Flow Hosted Automations? I am attempting to set up an automation that runs in response to webhooks coming from Monday.com, however before I can start configuring the actual webhooks, monday.com requires verification that I have control of the endpoint. I need to do this by having the platform send a JSON challenge to the endpoint URL, which must then be responded to with an identical JSON POST body. I believe it must also be returned with a status of 200. Documentation on setting up monday.com webhooks here. I have tried to accomplish this by adding a workspace after the webhook trigger to pull the IP address that the challenge request was sent from from the HTTP headers, and then using an HTTPCaller to send a POST request with the JSON challenge body to that IP address, but this is not working - the request just times out.

I have an FME workbench that performs change detection logic and outputs features using the Automations Writer. This workbench is triggered within an automation, and downstream workbenches receive their input from the Automation Writer output.Most of the time, everything works as expected. However, on rare occasions, the workbench fails with the following error:AUTOMATIONS Writer: FME Flow error: 'Blocking request exceeded 10s' I would appreciate any suggestions or possible workarounds to prevent or handle this issue.​@ebygomm ​@redgeographics ​@hkingsbury ​@danilo_fme ​@runneals 

I’ll try to make this really quick. We are trying to automate running several FME Form jobs. Each one will execute in line in the automation. The reason is we want them to stop if even one job fails and to send an email (External Action in FME Flow Automations). Being new I’m having issues trying to get the Email to work. I’ve tried various things with no luck. Is there anyone out there with experience on setting this up through Office365? I just want to know if I post this image of the settings if you might be able to tell me which are the most important to focus on. Also, any other pitfalls, internal flow steps, or even external steps I need to be taking. FYI: I’ve cleared out some of the settings in the attached image.Thanks in advance for your time and knowledge!!!

Hello all,I have a MapInfo table on a file server, that gets edited by users and I need to make sure it is packed each night.Is there a way that FME Server (FME Flow) can perform a pack on a MapInfo table in place?

Hi, What is the best way to manage the schema drifting issue? Context: Currently the user uploads an Excel File through Workspace apps, and the file contains multiple attributes where the attribute names can change anytime. ID can be reported as Id, Identifier, id, ID. What is the best way to map and standardize these attributes ?

I have a folder with hundreds of DWG files. We are moving away from CAD software and so wanted to convert our existing DWGs into SVGs for future compatability with new apps

I have some daily automations set up to update feature layers in our GDB from a rest endpoint. There are instances when the workspace cannot connect to the source to read in the features and therefore fails the job. I have retry parameters set on the run workspace action as follows: number of attempts 1, wait between attempts 5 seconds, backoff multiplier none, randomization factor none, max wait 1 minute. Having the retry as been helpful but causes us to recieve multiple emails. Specifically, if the job succeeds we recieve 1 email that it was successful. If the job fails both attempts, we recieve 2 emails that it failed both attempts. If the job fails the first and succeeds the 2nd attempt, we recieve one failure and one succeess email. We have some users who are only set up to recieve failure emails and therefore are not aware that the 2nd attempt was successful.Is there a way to configure the retry parameters or automation to only send an email on the final attempt? If needed for re

I have a working workbench that accepts a user parameter for a Cityworks WorkOrderSid.  I have a FWM Flow Webhook setup per instructions.  I think my issue is that the work order sid is not getting transfered as expected.  Here is a screenshot of the CW Template Details: I think the Template text is wrong because im getting an error in FLOW:it looks like the auth code is getting passed in to the WorkorderSID?Let me know if you need to see any other part of the setup...

I am quite stuck on a problem with the Esri Geodatabase (ArcSDE Geodb) writer in FME 2025.1 and would appreciate any ideas.I am using the writer in update mode and not updating the spatial column.The error is only on FME Flow and not FME Form. Error updating feature for the table/feature class '<feature class name>'. Check the geometry of such feature is valid and is not too small for the resolution.I tried removing the geomerty before the writer since no geometry is being updated - same problem.The FME Flow Server has ArcGIS Server 11.1  installed rather than ArcGIS Pro 3.3 as on the desktop. [Edited with version numbers ]The feature class has archiving so I am little nervous updating the records directly with SQL.Any thoughts?  

I know it’s not currently possible to set up an automation app that takes a user uploaded file as input, but i was wondering if anyone has gone down the route of using a workspace app to upload a file and then having that workspace trigger an automation via the rest api sending the details of the uploaded file location?

Hi everyone,I have a task to automate a process which starts with a Smartsheet. I’m somehow new to FME. Does anyone know how can I add the Smartsheet to my workbench as a reader.
