Hi,
It seems to me that there's a bug in the ArcGIS Online (AGOL) Writer when one attempts to write features to an existing layer. I'm using FME 2017.1 (x64).
The writer has Mode = INSERT and Truncate First = Yes.
If I delete the layer in AGOL prior to running the workspace, it works. If I don't, I get this Python error:
ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: Writing features for layer/table 'KommunerMedOverlap', with 57 inserts, 0 updates, and 0 deletes
Python Exception <UnicodeDecodeError>: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xf8 in position 2: ordinal not in range(128)
