Data

Hi having an issue where my FME data update job is running fine from Desktop when you click run.  But when I published the job to FME server and set up an automation to run nightly, it seems to be pulling in old data when it runs. The job reads an excel spreadsheet in a folder and plots it and inputs the output data into our SDE.  It seems like when I publish to FME server the excel spreadsheet is not being picked up live from its file location.  

Hey. I have created a workspace on my desktop where I used source data from a local disk as part of my testing. Now I would like to have the data for all WS that use these sources in one place on the FME server, specifically on the Resources\Data path. The specific file path is "$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/TopSky/AirportHeliport.BASELINE". Before publishing WS to the server I set this path on the reader as well, see attachment, however the file cannot be found when running WS from the server. Do you know where could be the problem?Thank you

Hello Guys I have a polygon  we need to know the length of each segment and which direction the segment is facing north , south , East or Ouest. Thanks 

I want to read some views in Microsoft SQL Server Database using a Database-Alias (not the Servername).I tried to make a DB-Connection using Microsoft SQL Server (ADO), but it didn't work with the alias (it works with the Servername).With a Microsoft SQL Server (JDBC)-DB-Connection, I can access the DB, using the DB-alias. Then I wanted to read the views, using the Microsoft SQL Server Spatial (JDBC)-Reader:I can access the database, but not the views. (In a database-application like DBeaver it works fine) TheDB- user account I use, is allowed to read the view, but not the underlying tables. Is FME not able to handle those permissions?  

Room output from an Architectural Revit model are solids. I need room polygons and I’m not finding a transformer that will do this.  Each floor of the model has a floor elevation value which would be perfect for slicing the room objects.FME version 2024.1

I am using Survey123 that generates a feature point at a default location. Every new point contains the name of the Road and from to information for the line segment. I am wondering whether there is a way to auto move that point right on top of the line segment using the Road Name information.Is there any functionality in FME that would allow me to move those points?

Hello,  What is the best way to extract metadata from a shapefile? This would include Title, Tags, Summary, Description, Credits, Field Names, and Summaries. I want to export the metadata to an Excel spreadsheet.I am looking for some ideas on what transformers to use. 

Hi,My goal is to read multiple (unknown) Hosted Feature Layers (HFLs) from an AGOL group and write those to ArcGIS Enterprise (11.3). I can successfully specify a single HFL in my FeatureReader and using an Automated schema in my FeatureWriter, specify each individual layer and write it to Enterprise. As I need this to work for multiple HFLs, most with multiple layers, I need to use a dynamic schema in my FeatureWriter. As soon as I do this, my workbench fails. Every time I switch to a dynamic writer, using the fme_feature_type as layer name and schema from schema feature, the workbench fails due to these errors:Message Type: fme::internal::_v0::py::ExceptionPython Exception <KeyError>: 'My_HFL_Name'ARCGISPORTALFEATURES writer: An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details I’ve tried everything I can think of to get this working and cannot understand what I’m possibly doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My workbench (so complex...) AGOL HFL FeatureRea

 Bonjour,je veux d’automatiser le téléchargement et la mise à jour des données accessibles via les plateformes de diffusion de données géographiques (IGN : BDTOPO, BDCARTO, etc., OSM, DREAL…).Actuellement, je travaille sur la partie automatisation du téléchargement dans FME, qui consiste à moissonner ces données. J’ai déjà fait quelques avancées, mais je sollicite votre aide sur des conseils; liens utiles  ou des pistes afin d’approfondir mes travaux..En vous remerciant d’avance.

In some tables stored in an Oracle database there are more than one spatial column.The reader can't read all the spatial columns but it reads onnly the first column it encounteres.how to read an Oracle multi spatial column table with FME Workbench?Emilio De Palma 

Hello!I generated a CityGML building model from an fbx model. The model could be opened in FZKViewer but the view is very strange. I could see the textures in the back when I am on the front view. It is like the surface in front of me becomes a very transparent glass.This happens at all of the sides of the model except the roof and ground surface. When I turn off the texture, everything is back to normal. Is it the problem of the texture? How could I check if it is on the texture and how could it be fixed? 

I’m trying to output all property sets from IFC files into separate Excel sheets. So far I’ve found all of the property sets, their attributes and their attribute values. This is my data:What I would like to do is transpose this list into separate lists for each property set like so: After that I could simply write each list to separate Excel sheets, but this is where I get stuck. I create the sheets by feeding the writer from a DuplicateFilter, but how do I join each PsetAttribute to Pset as well as transpose the data so each PsetAttribute is a single column?I need to do it without knowing the exact names or number of property sets existing in each IFC file as well.

Hi,After a migration to Office365, FME is unable to open Access files.

Host Revit file has 137 linked files.  When I try to read even a small portion of these I get the error.Failed to obtain any schemas from reader 'REVITNATIVE' from 1 datasets. This may be due to invalid datasets or format accessibility issues due to licensing, dependencies, or module loading. See logfile for more information.I’m using a FeatureReader linked to the Metadata.LinkedInformation output of the host Revit file (first strcating the LinkedFilePath and Name attributes).  I get this error even when I limit the input to one record.  Separately, a FeatureReader (along with Creator to initiate) can read one of these files. I saw a similar post where the answer was to change the FME_Temp folder.  I don’t think this will make a difference since I get the error when only trying one file.  I would try this but I need admin rights to set this up on my computer and I won’t be able to get that until next week.  Also, I would rather know for sure before I ask. Thanks in advance. 

Is there a way to join two tables using the between operator (SQL). I know I can use SQLCreator but I would like to do this join directly in workbench. sql example: TABLE1.*,TABLE2.*FROM TABLE1LEFT JOIN TABLE2 ON TABLE1.NAME = TABLE2.NAME AND TABLE1.DATE BETWEEN TABLE2.FROM AND TABLE2.TO

I have a database NAME1.If I open them as Oracle Non-Spatial I can access the following tablesNAME1.AANAME1.BBNAME1.CCNAME1.DDNAME1.EEIf I open them as Oracle Spatial I can access the following tablesNAME1.CCNAME1.DD The database contains more than 50 tables. They must be transferred to POSTGIS database with a different schema name: name2I have already looked up some things in the community. But those are old posts and some transformers don't even exist. What is the best way to approach this? in short:Oracle NonSpatial tables and Spatial tables from 1 database to POSTGIS database with a different schema name. Who can help me and or has an example? Thanks in advance

Before the web presentation of Safe and FME changed to what they are now It was possible to find the zipped FMEData. Data that are pointed at in almost every exercise in the FME Academy, community postings and videos.The new FME page does not provide the “knowledge” structure anymore as before and all links in the community etc. are pointing straight into Nirvana.I can see that these resource now can be found at https://s3.amazonaws.com/FMEData, however, I cannot get a listing of the content of this bucket and I always end up with a 403. Without a listing it is impossible to guess the specific file I am interested in…Can somebody point me to an URL where I can get the latest version of the FMEData?

The IFC data was exported using ArcGIS Pro. After importing it into FME Data Inspector, the following errors occurred:ISO10303-21: Skipping instance #50: Instance  is not syntactically valid An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details Failed to specify the feature index as constraints on the reader  Could anyone please help with this? Thank you!

When trying to read an IFC file, I am getting an error ISO10303-21: Skipping instance #1154: Instance is not syntactically valid. How can this be fixed?

I need to copy records from one hosted feature layer in ArcGIS Online to another hosted feature layer. Schemas are identical. Some of the records in the source data have an attachment (only 1 per feature/record so only in the 0 position in the list). No problem getting all of the records to write from the source to the destination but the attachments are not included. Anyone know how to do bring over the attachments with the rest of the data?

Though experienced with reading WFS's, I'm a little bit frustrated about reading a WFS2.0 in the FeatureReader. It seems it is not paginating. Checking the WFS GetCapabilities, 'FeaturePaging’ is not mentioned.I want to query the WFS with a polygon. So that is my initiator. But I'm not sure whether the results exceeding the 50k or 100k or even 200k. That's why I want some sort of ‘FeaturePaging’. Anyone an idea on how to solve my issue? It's probably simple, but I can't see it at the moment.

Hi, I need help. I have an attribute column X with string values ‘S001’, ‘S002’, ‘S003’, and ‘S004’, all lined up in 1 column with 4 rows corresponding to the string values. I would like the output Y should to be a single row list, having just one column and one row, containing the four values:Y = (‘S001’, ‘S002’, ‘S003’, ‘S004’) Could you please advise how this could be done in FME Form. Greatly appreciated. Thanks, Willy de Vera

Hi, got a question from a client yesterday who wants (with FME2018.1) to connect to a SQL Server 2000 database (no the question is not from a museum: ).FME returns a Fetching Feature Types Error, "... SQL Server Native Client 11.0 does not support connections to SQL Server 2000 or earlier versions".Any ideas the minimum hazzle to get around here? Just to install the SQL Server native client 9.00 and problem solved? I do not have an environment for testing this myself :/ cheers
