It seems like the Reader in FME Workbench only supports tokens, but my ArcGIS Enterprise only supports OAuth connections, is there a Workaround?

Can somebody suggest me how can this be done in FME like what info is necessary in Input files and which transformer can be used ??

Here's a basic one. Have a Boolean field and need to evaluate if it is T or F using a Tester transformer.Have tried using "Field = F", "Field = False", "Field = 0" in the tester, but none of them seem to work.This should be straightforward but I can't find it anywhere in the documentation. Thanks in advance,

Hi, I have an .asc file that contains a maximum flood extent. All i want to do is convert the maximum output of the asc to a shapefile and a tab file. anybody go any ideas? had a read of alot of poasts, but cant find anything similar. Cheers.

I have an issue writing a particular feature class to a new PostGIS table. The exact same process works fine in our development environment, but not in the production. I have other features with exactly the same schema that work fine in production. I can't fathom how there would be an error connecting to the database when this isn't an issue during the same process but for another set of similar data. This is the error message I'm getting:Bulk copy failed on table '98ac753a-3b34-4aa4-8971-8cbe9c7b09c2.GDY_C_020M_DOWNLOAD_AREA' using delimiter ':'. Error was 'Error connecting to database'A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for detailsA fatal error has occurred.

First of all, I am new to this software. I would like to convert shapefile data to a csv file to be opened with excel. The data I am using is county data for the US and I would like to extract the lat and longs for all county borders. However, all I seem to be getting when I use the Quick Translator is the max and min lat long for each county. How get I get all the data I need from this file?

I have revised an old workbench to use the "new" db_operation variable to do add/modify/delete updates in one writer instead of setting three writers with separate modes. I wonder what was done? It looks like the updates are cached and applied in a single query. The time has dramatically reduced from 15 minutes down to 1 min 17 seconds! I am using a csv file to update a file geodatabase. The geodatabase is indexed on the key. The database is 7 GB and the main table contains 24.6 million records.I write the end of the log into an annotation to give me an easy persistent change over time:(The log shows the updates written/deleted but not the full table being updated)Features Written Summary=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-Title_Memorial 86576Title_memorial 586changeset 87162====================================================================Total Features Written 174324=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Hi All,I am trying to extract data out of Smallworld 5 using FME Desktop (smallworld edition). The idea eventually is that i can extract and full and deltas from the EO VMDS. The problem i am experiencing, is that it is crazy slow to extract - in fact, i can't extract at all.In the console window, i am seeing the following error: Join dd_join(unset) will be processed slowly for the following reason:Not 'fast' Could this be the reason of the slow extraction? if so, i have no idea what this means. Regards,Steve   

I have a workspace that reads an Excel file pulling data from a specific worksheet and a specific cell-named-range. The read is implemented as a FeatureReader (Excel) but the problem I am experiencing is the same for both a FeatureReader (excel) and a Native Excel Reader,I am passing the name of the Excel file via a Published Parameter. I eventually want to process multiple Excel files that share a common data template. My issue is that when a NEW Excel file name is passed to the FeatureReader, the cell-named-range configuration is getting dropped and I am seeing the following warning in the logs:2019-02-04 10:08:43|   0.7|  0.0|WARN  |Excel Reader: Found named range '_xlnm__FilterDatabase' on sheet '7 day speed and Vol Summary'. This is a Microsoft Excel internal name so FME will not show it as a sheet. If you wish to read this named range, please rename it    My preference would be to have the Excel cell-named-range configurable as a reader parameters but currently you can only set i

It is known that FME can read from SharePoint. But my requirement is to read data from SharePoint portal (with workflows) and migrate to Documentum SharePoint is frontend for the customer storing the content and after migration Documetnum D2 will be used as frontend.I am looking at any FME based solution by way of APIs, customization etc. TxSRG  

We want to send and receive email with FME Server, and our IT say that we're moving away from smtp / imap so, medium term, we can't use either, only Exchange Web Services (because our corp mail implementation is going cloudy).Does FME Server understand EWS?

Hi, A simple question -> I want to write "" value in a field in a csv file using csv writer.When this csv file is opened in notepad, the value should look at "" and not as """""".E.g. Note the third column, that is how it should be visible.ID,Name,Comment12,Vijay,""13,Sambhe,"" Its odd but that is the requirement. I can add a workspacerunner, read csv as texfile and replace """""" as "" and write to a textfile but I want this to be done in a single workspace. Thanks,Vijay   

Hi, I have building floor plan with floor number (which is like G, M1, M2, M3, F1, ...F19 etc.) and I have height of each floor (like 3.4, 4, 4.5 etc.). We want to show the elevated floors in GIS with as per the exact height from ground (which is height of G+M1+M2+M3+F1+F2 and so on). I have attached a sample file. We have more 10000 buildings and each building has multiple floor so manual calculation of floor elevation is tedious work.

I am having issues using the ArcGIS Portal Feature Service reader. The reader accepts the host name and my username and password and it is able to successfully load all of the feature services. After I select a feature service, I click the ellipses button next to "Layer List" and it gives me the following error:   Has anyone else experienced this error message?

Hello everybody. I added texture images to building walls in sketchup, and then I tried to transform .skp file to CityGML using FME. Transformation went successful, HOWEVER, FME doesn't save pictures the way I set them to fit the wall, it just saves the original picture as if I didn't do all the work with fitting and rotating the picture. Can anybody help me? Thank you!

Hello,Is there a way to force fme to delete all the temporary/working files at the end of each translation?I'm working with huge las files and it is taking a lot of memory so that I have to manually erase such files before doing the next translation. Thanks 

I am writing Data with the Excel Writer to a Excel Template.In this template I have defined Named Ranges. These ranges only consist of 1 Cell (e.g. PrjNr =Schachtblatt!$G$5)The Problem is that FME writes to the Cell G6 (one cell below my named range)Has anybody a solution for this Problem ?Thanks Hans

Hello everybody,please, I try to solve one huge problem related to DWG writer. I wanna add a new attribute to block definition (e.g. attribute CODE), whose structure is not synchronized to its graphic. E.g. I have one block and its graphic is inserted to model space (pic below called "old") in DWG. But, meanwhile, spectre of its attributes was spread to nowaday structure (pic below called "new"). Anyway, the graphic is not synchronized, so newly added attributes are invisible.In FME, I need to add one new attribute to block definition and export graphic of block in the same graphic as on pic "old". But, if I have to export to DWG, I still need to define TEMPLATE FILE - this is problematic thing, because DWG writer automatically will load specific block definition will all attributes, so graphic is actual.Please, has anybody any advice, how to add new attribute to block definition with keeping old graphic of block before synchronization?Thank You so much!Lu

I am reading feature classes contained in feature datasets from a FGDB and then write all feature classes to a SDE/GDB. My question is how I can avoid feature dataset names and only write feature classes. I don't need the feature dataset names  

Hello everybody! Can anybody explain to me how to convert collada to citygml using FME? Thank you!

I have migrated data from SQL spatial server to File GDB, I have given the correct primary key and used vertex function to create the points from lat-long values. Migration was done successfully but I couldn't find any spatial data in File GDB.

Hello,I was wondering how easy it would be to accumulate x number of records (for this example 500), then run a bulk roads & highways or geocode query that would send all 500 records at once to be located/geocoded in a single query instead of making 500 separate calls to the service. Does anyone have any workflows like this? I feel like something like this would be extremely good for the geocoder transformer among others. Thanks in advance!

I am using the HTML-FeatureWriter for creating a HTML-File. The HTML-file consists of different parts, stored and passed by attributes. The different script parts contain values like @Value(name). Now I want to store the script parts as .txt (or others) outside of FME for better editing. When I'm importing them and link them to attributes, it seems like the "@Value()"-tags aren't recognized by FME. Is there another way for editing scripts containing @Value()-tags outside of FME?
