I have set up a sensor to send UDP messages to FME Cloud via a GSM modem and it works great as a trigger, but the message that arrives is nonsense.  I believe everything is sent as bytes through the serial port so I have no idea whether its possible to format it before sending or the problem is how FME Cloud is receiving the data. 

I have set up static IP adress for the cloud instance as I assume this is necessary?

I was having some problems with DateTimes on FME Cloud (East Coast cluster) and managed to come up with a solution, but decided to do some reading and checking. I can confirm that my instance is set to Central time, as is my admin account. For some reason, DateTimeNow() returns time in UTC with no offset shown. So my main question: is this by design? It's not the same behavior as in FME Server, so I have to make specific adjustments to workspaces - bummer. I did a quick search and came across a very good and detailed article about the subject by @mark2atsafe​ . Towards the bottom, it states:Timezones and FME Server: I’ve always had problems with timestamps when I’m in one timezone (Central -6:00) but FME is running on a cloud-based server in a ano

Is it fair to assume that I won't be able to configure Esri ArcGIS Python with FME Cloud and would have to deploy FME Server instead? 

I've published a workspace with a TTF file (arial.ttf). I can see the TTF data file in the workspace "files". but when trying to use this font (Arial) in the TextStroker transformer, I get INVALID_PARAMETER_FONT_NAME. What is the correct way to deploy / reference fonts on FME Cloud?

 Hello, Is it possible to view the html dashboard pages outside of the FME Server admin pages? For example I am intrested in writing a custom dashboard to FME Cloud and would like to share a direct link to it with some users, without requiring them to log in to FME Cloud/Server etc. and dealing with the UI. Is this possible? Thanks.

Hi There, I am using FME Cloud to translate data into DWG. In the writer settings I provide a folder for the  AutoCAD Shape File Folder, which is used in the translation.However the log file also states:No AutoCAD font folder specified. All Text and Multi-Text entities will use the default font file 'default.shx'I expect the writer to use the shx file specified in the AutoCAD Shape File Folder, why is this not happening? 

If any one can teach me through On-line ( But for a fee ) You can send me message through by My E-mail : ah98.bh@gmail.com

Hi,I am trying to figure out why a translation that works fine on desktop is not working properly in FME Cloud.I know that writing DWG groups is not possible directly from within FME and therefore I have defined the layer groups in the template file. The job on FME Cloud fails (no errors in log) and even with log debug turned on no meaningful information is returned. Last logfile line:2020-10-16 16:06:28 | Processing AutoCAD File...  Does this have to do with FME Cloud instance? Does anybody have any good/bad experiences writing into DWG groups on FME Cloud? @markatsafe @daleatsafe @daveatsafe

I have a workspace published on FMECloud which is triggered by http requests from an api. The request contains a geojson geometry defining an area of interest. With larger geometries I receive an error from FME saying the request payload is too large. Can someone tell me the size limit on request payloads and is it possible to configure it to a larger value?

Hi, we are in the process of considering FME Server in some sort of Cloud solutions. We formed a group to discuss the issue, and ran into the question where FME Server and related implementations 'fits' in the diagram below:Is FME Server Middleware, in which case it would be part of the environment to be delivered by the serviceprovider in case of a PAAS solution? Or is it 'just' an application, in which case one should turn to a SAAS solution to have it delivered by a serviceprovider? And what is the relation with FME Cloud? And the BYOL constructs that are available on Azure or Google? And the 'documents' (workspaces, automations?)that are contained on the FME Server server, how do they fit in? Anyone having any ideas on this?

I have a workspace that is writing to Google BigQuery and is connecting using the service account key file option. For this to work, the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS must be set to the path of the key file. I have uploaded the file to my FME Cloud instance, but need to know how to set the environment variable.

Hi all, I have a question about FME Cloud and the Temp folder.  I have found that the results from the DataDownload and also when data is uploaded to FME Server it goes into the System/Temp resource and not into the Temp resource.  Is there a specific reason for this? I've just been looking at this article and have bumped up my temp space. But when looking and the usage on the FME Cloud console it seems it's never really used.  By contrast the Primary disk is getting used constantly for tasks like writing out DataDownload results and Upload results.  Any thoughts? Should I just reduce my temp again? @gerhardatsafe​ what are your thoughts? Thanks in advance

I'm newbie (less than week). I published my workspace to my cloud. My workspace does necessary translation between file formats and coordinate systems. Now I need to upload to this cloud workspace my input file and download from there the result file.  This should be done by my javascript program. How do I set my workspace to be able to get input and send the output from/to my javascript program?How do I, by my javascript program, upload the input file and download the result file, all by my javascript program? I have not yet found neither relevant documentation, nor relevant code examples for my needs as I explained them above. For example, It'll help me If I knew how to do it for the "Easy Translator" example in https://playground.fmeserver.com

page https://playground.fmeserver.com/demos/has "Easy Translator" example with its code. I copied its workspace and want to publish it into my cloud and want to adapt the javascript example code accordingly. I request to get hints in order to understand what are the relevant pieces in the code that I have to adapt and how to adapt them. This will enable me to run any of my workspaces by javascript after I had uploaded them to my cloud. Help will be greatly appreciated. P.S. - importantNow I think maybe Upload File In Session is more suitable to adapt for my needs.

HI,I have upload multiple folders which contian thousands of *.osgb files to Resources->Data of FME Cloud. All the files need to be converted to specific format.How can I select the folders or plenty of files just once rather than click individual file one by one as source files? 

You can now find a brief document on the partner portal under the 'Sales' page about processing FME Cloud orders via Salesforce. This document includes some brief scenarios about processing orders when it comes to FME Cloud via Salesforce. Please read through this and get in touch with your Channel Account Manager if you have further questions. Please note that this is an additional option for processing FME Cloud. Processing via credit card sales through the FME Cloud interface remains the same.  

We are exploring real-time messaging capabilities of Apache Kafka on Heroku and came across the Amazon Kinesis Sender / Receiver. Does anyone have use cases for city data that they have used this service on? Work or asset management, or AVL / fleet?

Hi, I am trying to retrieve FME Cloud Instance ID to be utilized on the FMECloudInstanceController transformer, but it seems that it is not available through the Server UI.How am I able to retrieve them? Server API?Thanks!John

hey folks,https://fmeserver-eval-safe-software.fmecloud.comwhen attempting to send sockets to the FME Cloud eval, it will continually fail for local host on port 7078, which makes sense, cause I am using the trail version on the cloud, anyways does anyone know of a way to connect to the sockets through FME cloud?Thanks,Doug
