Is FME version 2021 able to work with ESRI Geodatabases in ArcGIS 9.0 and 9.3 formats?

Hi everyone, I'm currently looking to use the Ressource or Network Directory trigger on FME Server automation to trigger a workbench when new file are added to a file.  The file type is DWG. With a DWG file, there is 3 other file that are attached to this file. How can I specify to the directory watcher to only look for new DWG file and not the attached file. Right now, my workspace is launch 4 time because of it. Thank you in advance, Ian

Hi,When we try to convert dgn file issued from teigha in FME software, we have troubles with OdDgCellHeader2d cell name.it seems to be an encoding trouble. Teigha used UTF8 encoding and FME try to read an ansi string. Note that there is no trouble with the string linkage of the cell.We have post on the teigha forum and aidan.wessel have answer.We join a dgn file with two ERPTRL Cell, one dropped with teigha library and the other with microstation.inside microstation, we have no trouble. FME is not able de read igds_cell_name for the one dropped by teigha library.thanks for your answer,best regards,G. COSTAMAGNA

Hello.When I loaded the ifc file, I noticed that the position of the text was wrong.The image below is the Inspector View when reading FKZ Haus data (*1) (*2).*1) https://www.ifcwiki.org/index.php?title=KIT_IFC_Examples*2) I specified "Industry Foundation Class STEP/ XML Files (IFC)" as the format. On the other hand, the image below shows the same data displayed with FKZViewer.(I hide everything except IfcAnnotation to make it easier to see) What is the reason for this misalignment? Also, are there any workarounds?

Hello I would like to truncate and write data to a feature layer on arcgis portal.I'm getting the following error and I don't know what's wrong with the workbench.  

Hi, In my workspace I work with coordinates in different projections. I store them as numeric values. E.G. Geolat: 52.0324234. I want to write this to a PostgreSql database, which has the same type as is required for the value. Seems all good. But. When I start writing I get an error where it complaining about the input syntax is not of type 'numeric'. I see a query inside the log, Where it changes the value 5.2023617 from Longitude to " E'5.2023617' ". Which is a string. Which I dont require.  Does anybody know where to look at or how to solve it?

Any thoughts on why this Transformer would work, and then just stop working with this error when trying to browse Sites in the transformer ? Nothing has changed on eh FME Side, and I do not think anything has changed on the SharePoint side

Hello,I'm trying to create geometry from Sql Server geometry Blob to shapefile. I'm trying geometryextractor but it is not working.(I can not create geometry in Sql server; I can only read data).Thanks for help

FME 2021.2.3.0 (20220131 - Build 21812 - WIN64) I want to query an OGC API feature service by an attribute, to be precise, by a list of attributes.In my case, I‘m trying to query the cadastral parcel service of North Rhine-Westphalia by cadastral parcel numbers: https://ogc-api.nrw.de/lika OGC API - Features (WFS 3.0) Reader:Defining the parcel number as static parameter value works fine.Injecting the parcel number as published parameter works as well.But the 2 ways above are static. I have a list of cadastral parcel numbers to be processed.Normally the FeatureReader transformer

I've read the documentation on how to connect to Google Maps with an origin and a destination parameter; https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/urls/get-started Now, let's assume that I have an Excel sheet with columns for origins and destinations, for maybe 100 posts. Is it possible to use FME to send these to Google Maps and then get each of the calculated travel times back, to create a "travel time" column for the excel sheet?

With the DGNStyler you can set a fill color, but is has to be a value. In Microstation there is an option to set 'No Fill' (see screenshot below).  Is it possbile to set a no fill directly in FME (with the DGNStyler or otherwise)? I tried a few things with 'igds_fill_color' and 'fme_fill_color'; however so far no success.   

I have parcel boundaries, And i need to create outer boundary for parcels using some attribute name. In my group there are 4 types of attributes will come (attribute value a,b,c, and d) so i need to create 4 outer boundaries.NO OVERLAPS on outer boundaries. and are gaps between parcels and sometimes parcels are far from each other. Pls anyone can help me? i tried hull , but hull overlaps some cases.

Aside from 2 sparse mentions in FME docs and a video discussing how to use the JSON Reader to parse a STAC that might be hosted out on the net somewhere I don't see anyone talking about FME and STAC - Spatial Temporal Asset Catalogs. Is anyone been working on tools, in or out of FME, that build said catalogs? We've got ~20 years of imagery stashed here and there on our servers. It would be good to get them indexed in a STAC to increase discoverability within our org. (And for those which are not contemplating building Stacs, what are you doing instead?)

Hello, I would like to transform LAS files to LTF files using FME. I read that LTF format isnt supported in FME unless i install Leica Geosystems TPS Reader extension. Can someone tell me how to do that? thanks

If I use a PostGIS Reader, to inspector, on a table, it shows the geometry. If I use a SQLCreator using POSTGIS format, doing a select * from same table, it shows fme no geom, is that normal for a SQL to not show the geometry ?

I try to use the new CSW Reader.  At the moment i only get the summary version of the metadata. I´m looking for a way to set the get-Parameters, so i can specify:&resultType=results&outputFormat=application/xml&outputSchema=http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd&typeNames=csw:RecordMaybe some of you has an idea. best regardsandylicht

Is there a way to convert an fgdb point file with attachments to sqlserver? Should the photo attachments be stored outside of sqlserver in a separate file? I can convert the point file but how to handle the associated attachments is the problem. thanks 

Hi, I run a workspace in FME Workbench 2021 that outputs text files to D drive of the Computer. How do a enable FME to output text files to a server (file director) location?

Hi everyone,I am stuck with the FeatureReader and I manage to read a table out of the database when I keep the WHERE clause empty, however when I fill in the WHERE clause based on the user choice of a choice list saved in a parameter "NAAM_BUURT" and I want to match it with the column also called "NAAMBUURT" I don't get an output. I just get schema data, while I also indicate that I want data features. Does anyone might know what I might be doing wrong? By th way I am using FME Desktop 2022.2.1.   

Hello! FME Novice here, running Workbench 2021.1.3.1I'm trying to update a multipoint feature class in AGOL using FME, but am receiving the following error: <class 'fmeobjects.FMEPoint'> cannot be converted to esriGeometryMultipointI tried using Aggregator to ensure the points are multipoint but receive this error when I try this method:  0.0|ERROR |<class 'fmeobjects.FMEAggregate'> cannot be converted to esriGeometryMultipoint 0.0|ERROR |ARCGISONLINEFEATURES writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details Can FME handle multipoint  updates for ArcGIS Online? It has no problem with polylines, so I was hopeful on multipoints. Any advice is welcome and appreciated. Thank you in advance!  

Relatively recently we've acquired FME Server and are in the process of converting workbenches we had run previously via task scheduler. We have quite a few already and I am interested in suggestions (or articles) that anyone has on how to best document or organize the workspaces. There might need to end up being some trial and error regardless, but I would like to avoid some pitfalls on the front-end if possible. The most relevant search result I found was this, but doesn't seem to apply directly to what I'm looking for: https://community.safe.com/s/bridea/a0r4Q00000HbsC7QAJ/best-practices-document-for-fme-server Thank you!

Hello! It is possible to add a CGXML file into ArcGIS Desktop via data interoperability? Also the CGXML file can be converted to a shapefile via import? I can also add or send a cgxml file if needed. Thank you!

Hi, I have a host feature layer on Portal 10.8.1 and want to use a date where query. Documentation from ESRI point to being able to use Intervals in the query but when I try to use in the Portal Feature Service reader the server returns a 400 error.  https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/api-rest/data-management/querying-feature-services-date-time-queries/ It appears you can only use a proportion of a day in the FME query. The help page FME desktop points you to from ESRI isn't exactly that informative.
