I have developed an ArcPy script that requires an ArcGIS Pro Advanced license to execute successfully. I would like to run this script through FME Flow as part of an automated workflow. However, I am unsure how ArcGIS licensing works when the script is executed on the FME Flow engine and whether the ArcGIS Pro Advanced license available to me can be leveraged by FME Flow. I need guidance on the required configuration, licensing prerequisites, and the recommended approach for integrating and executing ArcPy scripts within FME Flow.

    ​@vsrinivasan007  please see bullet 5 of Common questions in this ESRI blog article: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-pro/analytics/how-does-data-interoperability-relate-to-fme

    The short answer is you need at least ArcGIS Server Basic license installed on the FME Flow server.

    Just curious what ESRI data formats are you using with your ArcPy scripts? If its SDE then there’s no way around this except what’s suggested.
