FME Flow

Quick question; if I want to use a token to authenticate my Data Virtualization, rather than a FME Flow user, I need to build it myself, correct? (and then do that for all endpoints of course)

HI there,I have a FME Flow 2026.1 deployment in a fault tolerant configuration with ALB and SSL enabled in AWS.The HTTPS traffic on port 443 to the ALB is working fine going to core and running jobs on the engines.I’m struggling in finding the documentation on the ALB setup for the websocket and setting the ‘Internal WebSocket URL’ in the system configuration section in the WebUI so I can use notifications/topics in my automations as triggers.I’m basically looking for ALB configuration. So, my questions are:Does the ALB require port 7078 listener and then to target the EC2 on port 7078?Which EC2 should be in the target group? is it core or engine?What would be the health check url to the EC2 to determine the EC2 can receive the websocket traffic?What url would you set for the ‘Internal WebSocket URL’ in the config settings based on above?At the moment, I have looked at safe github repo for AWS IaC which is very generic a

Hello all, I have a FME flow web-app (image 1). I am attempting to get a message to the user in certain circumstances via HTML output (image 2), which displays a message via the browser to the user if certain conditions are met, via redirecting the web-app page, e.g. there is an issue with their edits (image 3)image 1image 2image 3, text printed through the browserThis works, sort of. but its not good enough for end users, as the page redirects, but

For automations run at different frequencies e.g. hourly, daily, monthly, how to manage logfiles cleanup to best use of space?Is it possible to set the hourly automations logfiles clean up daily, while daily automation log files clean up biweekly. 

We need a FME Flow data stream which generates an HTML page showing an index of all available FME Flow Workspace Apps on our FME Flow instance.In FME Server 2022 REST API V3 we used [FME_Server_instance]/fmerest/v3/apps?.In FME Flow 2025 REST API V4, when we use the analogue [FME_Flow_instance]/fmeapiv4/flow-apps?, we do not obtain a result.

I’ve noticed a few issues since upgrading FME Form & Flow (FME Flow 2026.1 Build 26103 - win64) that seem to show up when I’m also developing in FME Form while remoted into our FME test VM.This is how I usually work, mainly because some jobs take a while to run and if I do them locally my PC can go to sleep after 5 minutes and the jobs fail. This setup has never had an issue in the past. Since the upgrade though, running Form this way can cause problems with FME Flow on the same VM. When I’m running heavier workbenches and CPU hits 100%, Flow can become unresponsive or look like it’s soft‑locked. This never happened before the upgrade.One thing I’ve noticed is that this seems to mostly affect SSO sessions. My theory is that when CPU is maxed out, Flow struggles to grab required info for SSO before it expires. Just a guess.

It seems the issue described in the related topic, where the job variables show in the result, instead of the values, has never been resolved. Or the issue has returned in version 2025.2.4.As a workaround I can send an email to a Teams-channel. But I looks a lot better when I send an adaptive card to the channel, using a Workflow in that channel.But as described in the related topic, when I send a adaptive card with a HTTP Request in an Automation, a job variable like {automation.name} just shows as {automation.name} in the result. Of course I would like it to show the name of the automation.Is there a way to make this work? Or is this a bug and I just have to wait when it will be fixed?

I understand there are 4 cadence releases per year, for example 2026.1.0 and then 2026.2 through to 2026.4 by the year end.2026.1 is the first release of 2026. Instead of starting at xxxx.0, it starts at xxxx.12026.2.0 (Major) 2026.2.1 (Update) 2026.2.2 (Update) 2026.3.0 (Major) 2026.3.1 (Update) 2026.3.2 (Update) 2026.4.0 (Major) 2026.4.1 (Update) 2026.4.2 (Update) My question is to a Safer is not about the major releases, rather regarding these updates.Can you simply install as a patch over the existing major, or is it a full install, 2026.1.2 sure appears to be full install media?Where is the documentation for installing patch hot fix to the existing flow installation

I was looking to upgrade FME Flow 2024 to FME Flow 2026 and ended up getting an impassable situation. I was following this process, which I’ve done in previous upgrades (ie. to version 2024):https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/AdminGuide/Upgrade-in-Place-Same-Machine.htm - I am stuck after step #4. Here are my specific steps:Uninstall FME Flow 2024 from Add or Remove Programs Run FME Flow 2026.1.1, using Express install Open

For the article “Using FME Flow with Esri ArcGIS Software” at https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407403131917-Using-FME-Flow-with-Esri-ArcGIS-Software, it would be helpful to know whether users who install ArcGIS Server on the server with FME Flow can turn off the ArcGIS Server service without interfering with the FME Flow services running on the server.  Turning off the ArcGIS Server service if it is not being used by FME Flow would improve our security posture by reducing the surface area for attacks when the ArcGIS Server service is disabled on the machine.

Is it possible to turn off log entries like these?Workspace was last saved in FME version: FME 2025.1.3.1 (20251021 - Build 25645 - WIN64) Failed to free sufficient memory to reach the process usage limit. To improve stability and performance please increase the memory available to FME. Available memory can be increased by adding physical RAM, increasing swap space, or closing other applicationsThese just add clutter to the job reviewing process.   

Hi All, I’m sure this is very simple but I can’t seem to get it to work.I want to take the text body sent to my automation via a webhook and use it as the input to my workspace.So this would be the POST I’d then like to pass “this is not a test” into the workspace POST_test (below) so that I can process it further in the workspace. I imagine the issue is that I’m not defining where the information is coming from when entering the workspace, which is just a text file reader and text file writer for the purposes of this test.I followed this tutorial and can trigger the workspace using this method but I cannot get it to read the text direct

Hello, We recently updated FME-flow to 2025.2.4. Shortly after we’re not able to publish workspaces from FME-form (2025.2) to Flow with the message ‘User is not authorized.’ while I use a superuser account. I cannot find something related in the User Management section on FME-form. Or might it also be something related on the server it is installed?If someone has tips or knows more about this issue that would be greatly appreciated.  

Hi,I’m using FME Flow 2025.2.4.I have an FME Flow Automation which runs 4 workspaces. Each workspace takes an email address parameter (which will be the same value for each workspace).I would like to use the same Automation to run on a bi-weekly schedule but also allow it to be run on demand via an Automation App, so I have 2 triggers: Schedule and Manual When the Automation is run on Schedule it should pass a pre-defined email address to the workspaces.When the Automation is run manually via the Automation App the user needs to be able to provide an email address at runtime.Is this possible? Or do I need to create 2 separate Automations?I know I can create a manual parameter that gets passed from the manual trigger to the downstream workspaces but if I configure the workspaces to use th

Hello Esteemed Community,I have been banging my head on this issue and have tried the help documents, this forum and the academy training to find an answer and am still stumped. I am struggling to access data that I submit with a topic through the data streaming service inside my automation via the FME Flow Topic Trigger. I have successfully tried the FMEFlowNotifier transformer just to see if I could get that working, but it does not fit in line with what I am trying to do which is to post to topics on success or failure at the end.This is what the service properties looks like: Service PropertiesAnd the JSON writer: JSON Writer

We have an automation that is triggered daily with a CRON expression which runs 4 workspaces. The first 3 workspaces are run in parallel and the fourth runs on successful completion of one of the workspaces. Last night, two events appear to have been triggered at the scheduled time and so each workspace was run twice. Has anyone ever come across anything similar? I can’t see any obvious errors in the logs

Hopefully someone can offer some advice on using ArcGIS Online hosted feature service webhooks and FME Flow.I have set up webhooks on a test hosted feature service, derived from a survey123 form. When implementing a webhook directly via Survey123, I successfully receive a response in the FME Flow log. However, when implementing a webhook on the feature service, there is no response in the log.I’ve done some checks using https://webhook.site/ and I can see that ArcGIS Online is sending data when using that URL, so it’s not a problem with the feature service webhook, but appears to be an issue with FME Flow.I should add, FME Flow is HTTPS enabled. All feature service settings look to be correct and I have default Admin rights on AGOL.Has anyone encountered a similar problem?  

Hi FME’ers,Recently I wanted to set up FME Flow to receive notifications from a notification service. My initial thought was to use an Automation with a Webhook trigger. Unfortunately this didn't work, because I couldn't register the Webhook URL in the external notification service, because it resulted in a validation error. After further investigation, it turned out that the notification service was set up using the Guidelines for NL-GOV profile CloudEvents 1.0. In 3.1.3 Abuse protection it's indicated thatThe validation request uses the HTTP 

Has anyone got any tried and tested methods for testing ArcSDE connections that are stored in FME Flow, en masse rather than one by one.I thought i could use an SQL Executor but it appears FME doesn’t handle the error messages when they’ve come from a failed SDE connection so the workspace terminates if there is one bad connection.

Hello there FME community! I am working as an external consult with the GIS-team at a company where I have a shared responsibility of the FME environment. We are managing about 200 workspaces, each running more or less every day on Flow moving data around and generating reports.Every second year we upgrade the FME instances, setting up new virtual machines for FME Form, installing new FME Flow instances and upgrading all the workspaces. This takes a long time, as we have to open all workspaces, save them in the new version and then test that they behave like before. While this works for us and the customer is pleased, I really believe that the process could be more efficient. Are you in a similar situation? How are you approaching the upgrade? Are you upgrading the FME environment in a similar way, or do you have a more efficient approach?  Best regards,Jacques de Flon

We are implementing a CI/CD pipeline for FME Flow using an Azure YAML pipeline. When exporting an FME project from DEV with deployment parameters enabled under Advanced Options, those parameters overwrite the values in ACC and PRD during deployment. If the same project is imported manually, this issue does not occur.Is this a known bug in the FME Flow API? Or is there a recommended way to prevent deployment parameters from being overwritten during automated deployments?Additional details:If all advanced options are manually unchecked, deployments work as expected. The token used for the pipeline requires full permissions (fmesuperuser); otherwise, roles cannot be deployed. Restricting permissions or deployment parameter rights results in nothing being deployed.FME Flow version we have is 2024.1.2Any insights or best practices would be appreciated!

Has anyone else run into issues with how things are displayed in FME Flow 2025.2.1 Examples: Engine Assignment Rules - we have two hosts which differ in name by suffix only. The way engines are displayed on the Engine Assignment Rules tab means you can’t quickly tell which engines are assigned as the critical bit is displayed as … (the full names are available on mouseover) The hostnames displayed in No proxy also have their urls partially replaced with …. so there appears to be no way to actually check via the user interface what values are entered here. In 2024.1 these values were displayed in full 

Hi!I am using the Geometry Parameter to let the users draw their area of interest on FME Flow and then download the respective map. However, after publishing to FME Flow, I don’t see the map for the selection, nor am I able to turn it on in any way.I saw that usually there should be a map icon to the left of the text, which would open a map and let me draw a polygon of my AOI. What is the problem? I am using FME 2026.2.0.0 20260401 - Build 26291 and FME Flow 2026.1.1 Build 26121 (which should be compatible).  

We are running 4 FME Flow 2025.1.2 environments (DTAP) and 1 FME Flow 2025.1.3 lab environment, all in a fault-tolerant setup with 2 cores and 2 engine hosts.In our DTAP environments, we initially had an incorrect configuration:processmonitorcoreconfig contained localhost instead of FQDNs for both cores Each engine host was registered to a different core (processmonitorengineconfig)This resulted in jobs mostly being picked up by a single engine host, depending on which core was leading.In our lab environment, the setup is correct:FQDNs are used Both engine hosts are registered to a single core Fault tolerance works as expected (both engines process jobs, and failover between cores works correctly)We applied the same configuration changes to DTAP to match the lab setup. However, after registering both engine hosts to a single core, we observe the following

Hello FME community!I am using FME Flow 2025.2.4 Build 25835 - win64 and I am having issues with connections in apps and galleries. I have created Roles, shared my connections with full access, created new connections per this article http://fme.ly/zn8 nothing seems to work. The funny thing is that it has nt failed for me is I run the workspace directly in FME Server.Are there any tricks that I have not tired or is this a bug?Thank you in advanced for any help/ideas that you can provide.
