FME Flow

To get a file validated, users can send an email to the FME-Server with the file attached. In an automation we first check, whether theres an attachement at all and whether the extension of the file is correct. If so, a validation-workpace starts, If not, the user gets an email back.This works fine, as long as there's just one attachement. But we now have a user with a grafic-file in the email-signature. FME-Server counts that as attachement too and sends him a mail, that he has to send a file with the correct extension, even though the file is there...I would have to loop through the attachements, if there were more than one, but how can I do this?(We are using FME Server 2020.0.2.1) Thanks in advance!Vera 

 FME Flow Hosted 2023click into the input variable Text Editor and dbl click the Webhook/message Content and this is the result: Click OK then APPLYClick back into the Text Editor and it's reverted back to this. I can't get it to stick with it's curly brackets:So as you could imagine any actions in the workbench downstream from this complains it's not a valid jsonhelp!this is the parameter published from Flow in_json: 

We are currently running FME desktop 2020 with a floating license server (2020). If we upgrade our license server with a 2022 floating license will the 2020 FME desktop installs still be compatible until we finish testing and upgrading?

Hi,I would like to create a fme server app where a user can upload multiple ZIP files. For each zipfile I would like to call a FeatureReader for one file within the zip file. How can I accomplish that?I tried the directory and file path names reader but this gives an error in FME server saying it expects a folder and not a file.Thank you

I want to automate a rest call to the FME FLOW API for schedule information, like https://myfmeserver/fmerest/v3/schedules?includeAutomations=true&limit=1000&offset=0 What are the minimum FME permissions needed to be assigned to role or system user to be able to run that API call ?  

Both the nodes sharing the same FME Flow System Share and FME Flow Database (postgres sql DB) which are on a shared network drive. The two express installs have independent URLs. So, in this scenario, there is no real fault tolerance from load balancer but if one node fails, the FME clients can change the URL to point to the second node's URL

At the moment I get a token with a normal HTTPCaller with username and password as User parameters. However, I would like to store username and password secure. For this reason I tried to use a Web Connection. Unfortunately this didn't work. Any recommendation hwo this should be done? This is my HTTPCaller that works fine but with the drawback that username and password are defined as user parameters in plaintext.

Is there a way of doing parallel processing on multiple CPU cores inside a PythonCaller? I don't want to use a custom transformer for that because I cannot easily group my features using the group processing option. I have already tried the concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor but it fails in FME. The code works fine outside of FME but in a PythonCaller it raises a PicklingError.

Hi, I have an issue with import numpy in Python Startup Script in FME Workspace in FME Flow: FME Flow 2023.0.1 uild 23332 - win64 I guess that numpy package is already installed in FME Flow (and Form).In FME Form there is no issue but when I publish workspace on FME Flow I get: Python Exception <ImportError>: IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS FOR ADVICE ON HOW TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE!Importing the numpy C-extensions failed. This error can happen formany reasons, often due to issues with your setup or how NumPy wasinstalled.We have compiled some common reasons and troubleshooting tips at:

Hi everybody,Is it possible to fix the maximum file size in output ?I want to convert LAS data in DWG, but DWG in output is too large. Instead of one large file of 2 GB, I would like multiple files of 200 Mo (for example). Tnak you in advance 🙂   

Hello, I'm using FME to read IFC files and I would like to know if it is possible to get GeometryPropertyExtractor (to get traits) by calling the FME API into PythonCaller ? Thank in advance Best regards Bruno Hilaire

Installing ArcGIS Web adaptor IIS broke the Tomcat Web UI to FME server. Checked the Tomcat xml files to enable SSL 443 and SAML. All the config seems to be in place. "Unfortunately a backup or snapshot of the VM was not taken ahead of time." Anyone know how to get the UI back running? Pretty dumb mistake so there is not much dialog. But I have gone through setting up SSL with CA Cert and SAML.

How to enable anonymous access to FME Flow (2023) services? Guest account is enabled and given permissions on repository and services OK. Trying to call a service always prompts for credentials. Can login as Guest and it works so permissions are OK.

I have a (FME Form 2023.0) workbench that generates three Excel files, where running locally via FME Form gets me a zip with this structure:my_data_$(TODAY).zipfoo_$(TODAY).xlsxbar_$(TODAY).xlsxbaz_$(TODAY).xlsxAll three XLSX files are generated by three separate writers and have very distinct structures and different template files. When I publish the workbench to FME Flow and try running it with the DataDownload or Data Streaming services, however, I get a completely mangled zip file with this structure insteadOutput8719176120317945288.zipXLSXW_1foo_.xlsxXLSXW_2bar_.xlsxXLSXW_4baz_.xlsxIt seems like both services ignore whatever path the readers are configured to write to, and instead use a

For example I have automation MyAutomation that runs two workbenches, WB1, WB2. WB1 can run on engines 1 - 5(determined by the folder it is in on the FME Server), WB2 can run on engines 3-5. Can an issue arise where WKB1 is running on engine 2 and completes by calling WKB2, that cant run on Engine 2?

Hi, Following the documentation: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/AdminGuide/Starting-Stopping-FME-Flow-Manually.htm I tried to enable HTTPS for the server (FME Flow 2023.1 Build 23619 - win64). I can browse via HTTPS to my server without problem.When trying to run a job (Run Workspace / Samples / austinApartments.fmw / Data Download) I end up with an error 500. In the log (D:\\FMEFlow\\ProgramData\\resources\\logs\\tomcat\\NAME\\localhost***.log): SEVERE [https-jsse-nio-443-exec-8] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke Servlet.service() for servlet [JobRunnerForm] in context with path [/fmeserver] threw exception   javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unexpected error: java.secur

For an automation running on FME Flow is there a method save the parameters used to send an email? Currently we have many email services set up and are switching email servers around. It would be nice to be able to update the credentials for one source opposed to having to edit the parameters in each automation individually.

How to Create an ArcGIS Online Web Connection (OAuth 2.0) (safe.com) I followed the document above. However, when trying to add the redirect url to the app in ArcGIS Online, it now requires a "url" parameter that is not mentioned in the documentation. I'm not sure what to put there.

Hello,I have a dataset with 1000 categories (A, B, ...) (please see the following sample). For each category I want to calculate 3 points moving averages. I developed the following workbench that using a Tester filter data for each category and then calculating the 3 points moving averages for one category (here port A). However, for each port of the Tester I should repeat all transformers again (transformer after the Tester), which is difficult for 1000 categories. I created a custom transformer but again I should import the custom transformer 1000 times. In the custom transformer I used a Counter which for each port should start counting from zero. But it is added up after that it is applied for each port. I set the Count Space of the Counter on local. But still didn't work. Can someone please let me know a better way to calculate this moving averages w

The municipality of Eindhoven intends to change the current way of 'authentication' to 'SAML' authentication.The current way of authenticating is based on 'Windows Active Directory'.Within Eindhoven we use the publishing of FME Desktop scripts to FME server via the so-called 'FMEServerJobSubmitter'.This is based on an Active Directory account.FME version 2022.2.1 On the Safe website we find several articles that authentication within an FME flow via SAML does not support a number of transformers.One of them is the 'FMEServerJobSubmitter'. Two possible 'workarounds' are mentioned.We do have some questions about this. Hopefully someone can comment on this. 1.    Use a System AccountFME Server can consist of both SAML and system user accounts. Consider creating a system user account whose credentials can be shared with those users who auth

We have an 'Archived' repository on FME Flow. I was wondering if there was a way to create a workbench or an automation to, for example, delete a workspace after it has been sat in Archived for 30 days. Thanks

Hi forum, I'm very new to FME Flow. I need to set up a schedule using cron expression for 07:00 Monday to Saturday, all year. I've entered... 0 7 * * 1-6 However FME Flow gives a message: "Invalid cron expression: 0 7 * * 1-6" I cant see what's wrong with it. Any thoughts? See attached image.Thanks,Stuart
