FME Hub user martin_ekstrand just uploaded a new transformer to the FME Hub. Creates an HTML report on all your triggers in all your automations and schedules, to be used as a dashboard in FME Flow. Takes a URL to an FME server and a web connection for authentication. It then connects to your server's REST API to get a list of all your automations. After that it gets each automation's configuration. It then parses all objects in the Automations canvas, checking for Triggers. For every trigger in every automation, it will check which workspaces are being triggered. Important note: You will need to install the Python library cron-descriptor before using this transformer. It's really easy, see the help for instructions. As of now it parses Schedule trigger (basic and cron), directory watch and ftp watch. The rest are output as other. This transformer replaces the FMEServerAutomationTriggersParser Would you like to know more? Click here to find out more details!

Blogger Tiana Warner just posted a new article to the FME Blog. Title: 8 ways to automate your data with FME Flow Summary: What is FME Flow and what can it do? Let's explore its powerful capabilities, like scalable automations, web apps, application integration, and more. Introduction: FME Flow is the piece of the FME Platform that allows you to automate the workspaces you create in FME Form, allowing you to perform data integration, transformation, and validation at scale. Instead of requiring manual execution of each workspace, FME Flow was designed to run workflows automatically based on predefined instructions, such as on a schedule, in response to an event, or continuously as real-time data arrives.

FME Hub user daveatsafe just uploaded a new format to the FME Hub. FME can read tiles from an ArcGIS Online Vector Tile dataset. Vector Tiles are often used a basemap to provide geographical context to a user's data. They have minimal attribution and often have smaller file sizes than the equivalent raster tiles. Tile sets often feature tiles of different sizes in order to equalize the amount of data in each tile. This reader can read the tile Index boundaries, the tile contents, or both. If the tile set is very large, we recommend using a search envelope. Would you like to know more? Click here to find out more details!

FME Hub user wghmapgear just uploaded a new transformer to the FME Hub. GeoApps Version Validator With this transformer, you can easily validate if your GeoApps environment matches the minimum required version to use with FME. It also verifies if the required license is available on your GeoApps environment to use of this integration. At last, you can use this transformer to validate your setup: it is a simple request that verifies if you are able to connect to your GeoApps environment. Prerequisites To use this transformer, you need to have an active GeoApps subscription and a user account with enough permissions to run the jobs. In addition, you need to first set up a web connection to GeoApps from FME. You can find the web connection in the FME Hub at https://hub.safe.com/publishers/mapgear/web-connections/geoapps. How to use? Add the transformer in your workspace, and configure the parameters. You need to set up two parameters: the tenant name, and the web connection to GeoApps. Af

FME Hub user pierrekoelich just uploaded a new transformer to the FME Hub. DGN Linear Dimension Drawer This custom transformer contains the framework to draw linear DGN dimensions when fed linear features(lines, polygons). This transformer will break the features into its constituent lines, and draw dimensions for each line. It has user parameters with presets to help make drawing the dimensions more visually appealing, these include: text alignment, text justification, arrow style, and offsetting the witness lines. Limitations: A major limitation of this custom transformer is that the user does not have control over where the dimension line gets drawn. It will be along the line that its measuring but which side the dimension line itself will be drawn on seems to be random. As the name suggests, this transformer cannot handle arc dimensions at all, a workflow to draw arc dimensions would be too different to incorporate into this one. Only 3 fonts are available, I recommend using the tr

FME Hub user mark2atsafe just uploaded a new transformer to the FME Hub. This transformer sanitizes string values intended to be inserted into databases. It is a useful way to clean data and to guard against malicious code attacks such as SQL injection. Parameters String to Sanitize: This parameter defines the string to be sanitized. It can be either entered into the dialog, or derived from an attribute value. Output Attribute: This parameter defines the attribute to hold the output (i.e. the sanitized string). It can be either a new attribute or an existing one, even the same as the incoming attribute. Select Language: This parameter controls the query language to use. It can encode a string in either SQL or Cypher. Example: Data Cleaning Using the SQLExecutor, a workspace author wishes to issue the command: select x from y where z = 'Mark's Data' This will fail because of the apostrophe in the value being queried. The StringSanitizer can be used on Mark's Data in order to produce a S
