Community Q+A

Hi All, Just after the August Calendar Badge in Bingo. “Did you know that each month has a specific date on which posting earns you a special community badge? To complete this square, simply earn the badge for August.” Does anyone know if it is timezone specific?

Probably splitting hairs here but I’m wondering what peoples preferences are for Tester vs TestFilter I have a Tester where I’m testing for someAttribute = someValue. this is case one. case two is where is fails the test. As it is on it’s own it’s not clear at all why or what the point of the test is. Using a TestFilter would let me define the output port names making it much clearer as to the purpose of the test without needing an annotation. Thoughts? Does anyone do this for the sake of clarity in a workspace?

Hello, I find FME forums very helpful for problem solving and rectification of technical issues. I was wonderingif there is a space less about technical issues and inquiries, and more about tips, tricks, and generally fun/informative FME information folks might want to share.

I’ve been finding lately that having an AI write code for me and just run it is becoming almost trivial, and as an FME user it’s starting to make me feel pretty obsolete. Of course there are still a tonne of caveats and you still need to be careful, but with the recent rollout of Visual Studio’s “Agent” mode to everyone the reality is fast approaching that it may be easier to create a free python based application to do a specific task than to write a workspace. Understanding these AI tools well is hands down just going to make you much more productive. But this can only be true is you can actually use them in your work which in the FME world it’s so far not so easy. For me one of the main benefits of using FME is that I don’t need to spend time writing code, but now that I can have the AI do much of the work I’m really wondering about the future of FME - Especially to juniors - If someone has to spend time learning FME vs asking an AI to create a python app to do the same why would th

The new Community site looks good, but I cannot find the Documentation site. Can you inform me the URL?

Hi All, I have just posted a technical question and the FME platform showed a text box saying that my question has gone to the moderator to approve? Has this new workaround been recently implemented? or maybe the hyperlinks included in the post need to be checked? Just wanted to confirm :)

I would be interested in a dark/night mode for the community. This may be something that is already on the roadmap for future development. Perhaps another community poll could help determine how many others would also like a dark mode in the future?

Hi All, With the new FME Community platform, I’m not finding the EDIT button to make changes in my existing questions, Does anyone know how to edit the questions now?

Submit Case My Cases I can access it here: Technical Support | FME Support Center (safe.com) But are there plans to include it in the new FME Community Page? (as a link in the banner at the top of the page)
