FME Flow

FME server documentation states: Note: Each IMAP Publisher created on FME Server must reference a unique email account. You cannot create multiple IMAP Publishers that reference the same address. However, I have done some testing with this and I have created more than one publisher with the same IMAP email. Bother publishers work. Am I missing something? Is there going to be a future error or fault? Where is the conflict with this? Thanks.

I am trying to setup a web connection under Tools -> Manage Service -> and I don't have Esri ArcGIS Portal(template) available. Is there a file I can import or resource to build it for Enterprise Portal? Version of desktop: FME(R) 2018.0.1.0 (20180518 - Build 18310 - WIN64)

I'm trying to fix our Google Sheets connection in FME Server after a restore but can't get the redirect URI set correctly. It's currently set to http://127.0.0.1:8080/fmeoauth. The Google authorization goes all the way to the "Allow" button before I get a "This page isn't working (ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE)" error. I've tried different URI strings, including http://127.0.0.1:8080/fmeserver/fmeoauth, but get the same error. When replacing 127.0.0.1 with localhost, or the hostname, the Google auth goes nowhere. This is a private FME Server instance that is firewalled and has no public access. What else can I try?

Hello, I've made a workbench that downloads data to Shape automatically once per month from https://geodata.nationaalgeoregister.nl/hwh/eenheden/wms/v1_0?request=getcapabilities&service=wms (WMS). This time I would like to make a workbench that compares the geometry and administrative data from the Shape files with each other (January-February, February-March and so on). I am thinking about doing this with the ChangeDetector transformer, but that's where my idea stops. Could anyone give me advice on this? Many thanks, Claire

Hi, I've build an automation in the FME Server with Trigger type: Schedule initiated and Schedule type: Repeat on interval for 1 minutes (for testing purpose) and it works perfectly . However when I stop the automation and set the interval for 1 day at 7.00am, the automation is not working after I checked again the service the other day. Any idea on how can I resolve the issue?

While following the tutorial of https://community.safe.com/s/article/tutorial-custom-data-delivery-using-fme-server and creating an App Server with the "austinDownload.fmw", I notice the download link is wrong: "https://dev.fme.geosmartdesign.com:443/fmedatadownload/results/FME_11246665_1617281097879_2096.zip" alt="https://https://dev.fme.geosmartdesign.com:443/fmedatadownload/results/FME_11246665_1617281097879_2096.zip" target="_blank">https://https://<redacted>:443/fmedatadownload/results/<FME_uuid>.zip ". Notice the double "https" definition. Where and how is this link exactly build, are ENVs affecting this?

I'm trying to figure out why I'm unable to import a project, I'd like to know the service which performs the import to make sure I have the user running the services correct. TIA

It seems FME Server 2021 is still having problems with SSO as described in " Known Issue: FME Server SSO failed login due to insufficient credentials " Is this known and is SAFE working on the issue? Or are there other solutions/workarounds?

I'm submitting jobs using FME API (v2): /transformations/commands/submit/< repository >/< workspace > The model writes output results to JSON file. Is it a way to get contents of the result JSON file through API request? Using this with no luck (visible log details only): /transformations/jobs/id/< jobid >/result

Hello everyone, please, because of security policy, on server, where is FME server installed, there has to be SELinux also. And SELinux systematically blocks all FME services. Please, does anybody tipor trick, how to figure it out? How to run FME server on tha same server with SELinux? Thank you so much in advance! Lubo

The image of the error is attached here..Thank you as I await a solution to the issue. let me also state that FME 2018 and 2019 ARE WORKING PERFECTLY WELL on my computer except, FME 2020 AND 2021.

Hello there when I run the workspace from run workspace menu , the job is successful but when I run the same workspace using the workspace app I am getting the database connection error I am using the admin user with all access enabled I am sure I am missing something Thanks

Current steps Revit IFC reader Geometry Coercer -> FME_composite_surface Surface Footprint Replacer -> Overhead Shadow Geometry Refiner Scaler Dissolver GDB Writer Extra info: The process has been created as a result of mostly trial and error with varying IFC files, although mostly similar. For this exercise attribution can be ignored other than FME_feature_type to remove the redundant IFC components (site, project, building etc) It feels like there is a lot of 'junk' in the IFC format that is not required for geometry work. What steps are possible to clean / optimize / dissolve IFC files or their derivatives to increase workbench processing speed. I cannot supply an example IFC file due to data security.

I am tasked to asses FME and determine if it will be a good fit for our organization as main integration platform. I have done some research on FME and have few questions (where i could not find much documentation): Does FME have any self-documentation feature or 3rd party add-on which can be used to achieve this? How does most organization maintain design documentation for workspaces? Can FME Server expose REST APIs that are created by developers or we absolutely need to get a 3rd party API Gateway (AWS, etc.) for hosting APIs, security, etc? What capabilities FME provides for monitoring (performance, errors, etc.) or all of this has to be designed by developers? What additional tools are required in the Integration Stack to support basic patterns like APIs and Messaging ? What does your implementation have. Any pointers to documentation that

Hey I recently learned through this webinar: "Creating No Code Web Apps with FME Server" how to create an app with the help of the server, and thus optimize our work. It is explicitly stated that the application can be embedded in any external site. Just copy and paste. When I tried to create the app, it would not let me access the app from an external computer. (The server is currently installed on only one computer.) What do you need to do to have outside access to these apps? Thanks Dor

After working through setting up a webhook in FME Server (separate thread), I now run into the issue that when I make a 'POST' request to the webhook URL, this kicks off the same workspace twice. They start just 2-3 seconds apart and both complete successfully. But since I'm inserting into a database, I end up with twice the inserts. Server logs directory has two (2) files for two (2) jobs that are of virtually identical content except times and memory usage, etc. Any idea what might be going on here?

Hi. I have a need for a single user/department to be able to activate a handful of workspaces on my FME server. I can build a Server App, but it's tied to a single workspace. Is there a way, apart from building a launch page externally, or making multiple server apps, to have a single FME Server App support multiple workspace activations ? Cheers

Hi All, I'm trying to create my own folder structure for a data download. I've found the example in https://community.safe.com/s/article/create-specific-directory-structure-in-the-data-do?t=1604933837460. Unfortunately I can't get it to work. I keep getting a folder called $(FME_MF_DIR_USERTYPED) in the results. In this folder I see the correct paths. How can I get rid of this strange folder name? Thank you.

Hi, we want to upgrade our License Server to Windows 2019 (from Windows 2012) and are running with FlexLM v11.15.0.0. Will we need to upgrade the License Manager? Thanks!

I am looking for the possibility to process the status message of a FME script (Translation SUCESSFULL / Translation FAILED) within a Python script, or to stop the script as soon as the processing was not successful. Currently I call my workbench inside a Python loop and process a (first) part of the data. Then I call the Workbench with the next part of my data and so on. Unfortunately, with my current workflow, I have no way to see when my Workbench generates an error in between and actually terminates. Within my loop, it continues and moves on to the next part. Currently I generate my argument using a function: def get_arguments(GDB, CSV, Start_Object_ID, Last_Object_ID): arguments = [] if GDB: arguments.append('--DestDataset_GEODATABASE_FILE "{}"'.format(GDB)) if CSV: arguments.append('--DestDataset_CSV2 "{}"'.format(CSV)) if Start_Object_ID: arguments.append('--Start_Object_ID "{}"'.format(Start_Object_ID)) if Last_Object_ID: arguments.append('--Last_Object_ID "{}"'.format(Last_Obj

Hi, I want use automations to concatenate workbenchs published in FME Server. But I want use the result of the first workbench to use in second workbech as a reader data. In first workbench I use a FME Server Automation Writter, but I can't configure the Automation to get my finality. Is possible this scenario? Thanks!

Hi, Im working in a local government. We have a FME desktop licens (one license), only used by GIS admins. We have a lot of users that need a tool to make easy translations between formats. I am wondering if it is possible to implement FME Quick Translater in the entire organisation, without implementing the full FME desktop? e.g. i basically want my users to be able to right click on a dgn file - click translate with FME Quick translaetor - save the dgn to whatever new format and then open it in eg QGIS. How could that work license wise etc.? it it possible to buy "only" the quick translate part?

Hi, we have an old FME Server 2017 (permanent license) and a new FME Server 2020 (60days trial). After we moved the workspaces, we would like to move the license from the old server to the new. What do we need / how is it done? How can I deactivate the old server and move the license on the new?

In FME 2021.1, is anyone else having an issue where the feature class that FME writes is a data table, instead of a polyline? I'm using a dynamic workflow with a FeatureWriter and the open file geodb writer on a Mac. This was working perfectly before upgrading to test in 2021.1.
