Tracking Data Loads and Data Control via Dashboards

Hi all, We are currently going through a process of setting up FME Server. What we would like to do is have a dashboard that monitors all the data we input and see the last time data was updated. What would be the best process or methods to do this? What are the best practices in ensuring data is up to date and seeing last update of data? Thank You

I'm looking to iterate through a transformer that only accepts one input at a time.

I'm trying to compute a CHM (canopy height model) by using the rastercellcalc transformer by having it subtract a DEM from a DSM. The process works fine when only one DEM and DSM are passed through to the transformer at a time however I have these DEM/DSM's clipped to multiple smaller files. The CHM produced should have the same boundaries as the inputted DEM and DSM. I've tried using the group by parameter in the transformer however it doesn't work for some reason and still tells me that the raster rows and columns don't match. See images below:The attribute manager and trimmer transformers just create a shared attribute between the correct DSM and DEM tiffs tiffs so that the rastercell transformer can do group by "Tile_name). See below:

Hello, I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me conceptualize how I might accomplish this task. I would like to create a CSV that contains every feature in all of the feature classes in a Geodatabase. All of the feature classes have a differing schema, but I would like each one to display in the CSV as: ID / NORTHING / EASTING / ELEVATION / FEATURE_CLASS_NAME / ALL ATTRIBUTES Any input is greatly appreciated.Thanks!

How to conflate value based on matching ID

So, I have two datasets:Linear - contains names - short linear segments in close proximity to polygonsPolygons - unnamed The goal is to conflate names from linear to polygonal. I have buffered to lines to conflate names from linear to polygonal data and it worked fine. The problem is that the linear segments are short and only capture the feature where they are located and one river can contain up to 50 individual features. All of these features (polygonal) have a unique Feature_ID but more importantly, they have a RIVER_ID. The RIVER_ID is the same for one water body (river). For example, 30 differing individual features will have the same RIVER_ID since they are representing the same river. So, let's say that the river in question is Danube and it has 20 features. Now, only 13 of them were captured by the linear segments and are now named whilst the rest are unnamed. How can I use that RIVER_ID to transfer the name from the named ones to the unnamed ones? I have tried aggregatin

Reset Status of automations

In the "Automations > Manage"-list theres a column "Status", where the number of errors / warnings in the automations are listed. In FME-Server 2019.2.1 it was possible to remove those numbers by clearing the automation-logfile.In FME-Server 2020 it's not possible to clear the logfile anymore. So how can I remove the numbers of errors/warnings in the Automations-List?The "clear Log"-button has gone, but there's a new "Log action" button instead. What is this for? It doesn't seem to do anything...? Thanks, Vera

How to allow machines on my LAN access to my FME Server??

Hi, I am currently working through the FME Server Tutorials, it is a very steep learning curve as I have only just installed FME Server on my PC and had zero server experience before now. So I have it up and running, and I have several other devices connected to the same local network, and I am wanting to log into this server using another machine, but it is as though the server does not exist! the link can be accessed fine from the same machine, its just other machines that cannot access it ("Page not found") I have double checked, I can successfully ping the machine, no worries at all. So I have used the 'direct link' on another machine on my network (just replaced localhost:80 with 192.168.1.2), but it is returning a page not found. http://192.168.1.2/fmeserver/#/workspaces/run/Training/SelfServe-Ex1-Complete.fmw/fmedatadownloadAny thoughts on what may be going wrong here? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Pu

Where to position FME Server, FME Cloud en FME BYOL/Azure on the IAAS, PAAS, SAAS scale?

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?

How can I set the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to the path to my service account key file in FME Cloud?

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.

Unable to create Active Directory connection

I'm sure this is answered somewhere but I can't seem to find it. I'm having issues finishing up the AD Connector. I've created a search account and verified it's credentials and began the basic setup for the connector. We have Basic authentication and the correct port is being used, but when we test the connection it says "Unable to authenticate with directory server with given credentials (49)". If I look at the logs it says it successfully establishes a connection with our DC but it fails to authenticate with out search account. Is there something painfully obvious I'm missing (and that I can't find searching these forums)?

Is there a way to limit the directory monitoring automation to fire when the files i am interested in changes?

I am monitoring several directories that have multiple files in them. Whenever any file changes my automation runs. Example Directory contains the files that make up a shape file. The automation will fire for every file in the directory that changes.(5)

Adding multiple tabular data to single geometry in shape file

I have two sets of input data.World graphic data in polygonWorld tabular data in CSV I want to add multiple tabular data in country wise graphical polygon data by putting a join on country name. The desired output will be each single polygon with multiple attribute data from CSV. I have used "Feature_Merger" & "Feature_Joiner" but the output is not as per expectations. The feature merger adds all the attributes in a list file which I am finding it difficult to write in shapefile as attribute data. The feature joiner just add polygon data to all the CSV records. Please suggest if someone has done anything in such condition. Thanks in advance.

Does the XSLTProcessor support XSLT stylesheets of version 2.0?

Hello everyone, A customer of mine has created a lot of XSLT stylesheets which we want to apply to our XML documents. We would like to use FME for the automation part (download XML, apply stylesheet, write result and push to server). However I seem to receive an error when applying XSLT stylesheets of version 2.0. Version 1.0 stylesheets work as expected but the workflow throws an error as soon as it encounters a function that is only present in XSLT 2.0 (like lower-case or upper-case).The stylesheets that I used to test the workflow both work as expected outside of the FME workflow. Is XSLT 2.0 currently not supported? Or am I missing something?I am using FME 2020.0 - Build 20238 - WIN64.

Temp vs System/Temp FME Cloud

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

Insufficient Privileges for engines in newly created folders

I have the FME Server Core running in a CentOS instance in AWS and a number of engines on separate instances. The shared resources folder is in an Elastic File System mounted to all the engines and the Core. I noticed that when new folders are created from the FME Web UI, they are created by the root user and not by the fmeserver user as I was expecting. This is causing the engines to have problems writing into those new folders because the fmeserver user (which is the user that runs the workspace) lacks the necessary permissions. I can't keep modifying every new folder's permissions to allow for the fmeserver user to be able to write to them. What could be a more permanent solution? Can the Core be changed to use the fmeserver user instead when creating new directories?
