FME Flow

The default position is center screen for the logo on server apps. I was wondering if it possible to move it left aligned for branding continuity Thank you very much

Hello, I've tried to set up everything that FME Knowledge offers. Still I can't seem to configure my gmail account to trigger an automation on incoming mail. I've tried configuring 2-step verification and/or sign in from less secure app. Message in log of automation is: Failed to connect to email server. Please check IMAP settings and insure IMAP is enabled for the email account. Error message: null IMAP settings are good and IMAP is enabled for my account. Has anyone had a similar problem that you managed to solve?  I'm using FME Server 2019.

Hello FME Community! In my company, we have several workspaces which run on a regular interval. Some are simple schedules and most are inside automations also triggered by schedules. The goal is to inform specific people inside my company via email if a workspace failes to run on the server. Up to now, we have implemented topics and subscriptions to those topics that people get emails. However, since the email, triggered from a topic, does not contain any information about the workspace which failed inside the automation, I am not sure if this is the way to go. I also thought about sending emails directly from the automations. But since it does not offer any templates, I have to fill the email content manually (considering that multiple people receive the email, it requires quite some manual effort). Could you offer me some guidance, or best practice how to implement a notification service that is suitable for our need? Thanks,

Hi all; I just started learning fme server. I want to create a web service using the rest api. I want to show the data in my database as json. Is there a sample application? What are the fme server settings? Thank you. 

When I try to upload any file using the Web interface I get an error message. I have attached the screenshot here. Any suggestions? FME Server 2020.1 Build 20614

I am running FME Server 2020.2 and have an automation setup for email polling (IMAP) that triggers a workspace when new emails arrive. For whatever reason when a new email arrives, FME Server passes an empty email.body key and stores the text in the email body as an attachment.  This inbox is a shared inbox in Office365. Any ideas as to why it would be parsing the email body as an attachment? Here is an example of the FME_TOPIC_MESSAGE: {  "email.to": "REDACTED",  "email.subject": "OPUS solution : JTT_PECOS_1.20o OP1606798966776",  "email.attachment": "C:\\ProgramData\\Safe Software\\FME Server\\resources\\system\\temp\\emailattachments\\20201130230450-OPUS_Result_Parsing-OPUS_solution__JTT_PECOS_1.20o_OP1606798966776\\attachment_0",  "email.received": "Mon Nov 30 23:04:50 CST 2020",  "source

Hi, this is not the kind of question one wants to ask, since it seems almost unethical to demolish a really lovely product, but has anyone ever had any ideas on a stresstest for FME Server? A workspace that eats every bit of memory on a 64bit system, or that fires new jobs every milisecond, or poking around diffent file contents on the harddisk? Put the FME Server postgres database under a ddos attack? Or anything else that tries to - respectfully said - 'break it down'?

Hello everyone! My company is looking into utilizing SAFE's Augmented Reality tools! We are currently testing the application and are working on becoming familiar with the process at hand. I am attempting to create a "mock" workflow using Mr. Dmitri Bagh's 'City of Coaquitlam' model as my basis. I created a small google document that will show a single buried cable that I generated in ArcMap. However, I keep failing at the end of the workflow. Making it to the 'bufferer' tool before the 3D forcer and extruder. We will want to look at larger datasets in the future, and I figured this workflow may be the best to accommodate. I have generated smaller AR models with using the methods found in the '3D Buffered Pipeline' examples. But struggle to generate large scale systems. In that workflow, I am also unable to anchor the gas pipe sample, and scale to an appropriate size/show at ground level.  I will attach my workspaces. Would

Hello,  I would like to run a workbench via Python. The workflow within the script is always the same. Only the input and output directories change.For this purpose I have written a function and call it accordingly.def fme_workbench(workbench, argument):    FME_command = '"C:\Program Files\\FME\\fme.exe" ' + workbench + ' ' + argument    result = subprocess.Popen(FME_command)    result.wait()argument = '--Name_Veg4m_umhuellend "' + str(kachelnummer) + '_veg4m_hull" --Name_Veg4m_Loecher "' + str(kachelnummer) + '_veg4m_holes" --SourceDataset_ESRISHAPE_5 "' + os.path.join(output_dir, str(Mission), 'Lidar_RAW', str(kachelnummer), 'Output\\*.shp') + '" --FEATURE_TYPES ""  DestDataset_ESRISHAPE "' + os.path.join(output_dir, str(Mission), 'Lidar_RAW', str(kachelnummer), 'Output') + '"'                    fme_workbench(os.path.join(script_dir, 'EB_0_Aufbereitung_klassierte_Vegetation.fmw'), argument)

I've just been thinking about required permissions for a project I've been working on.  The initial workspace is triggered via REST call (jobSubmitter). Depending on success or failure a topic gets triggered which may fire a subsequent workspace. In one of these workspaces it needs to access the FME job history data via a rest call. I've set up a web connection.  My question is, does the initial token I use for the JobSubmitter need to have access to the job table (and web connection)? or are permissions used based on the owner of the subscription workspace or the subscription itself?  Any best practices here? 

Hello,FME Server 2019.2 build 19801 running with FME CloudI think that these two settings for a Trigger in an Automation configuration should be equivalent, but the left setting - Schedule Type "Basic" didn't trigger any action actually, whereas the right setting - "Repeat On Interval" is working as expected.Am I missing something? Or it was a defect on the "Basic" type and has been fixed already in a newer version?

Hello, I created a workspace to stream data to my PowerBI client through a webhook. This works fine in 1 project but in my new it doesn't work. The workspace comes in jobs > running and when it's done the job just restarts. Thus no data is being streamed to my Power BI client. Server version: FME Server 2019.2.3 Build 19822 - win64 Am I missing something here? Edit: The webhook works just fine :)

We cannot access an FME Desktop floating license from a remote computer. The remote computer locates the license server and requests a license, but the license server returns the error message, "FME floating license system failure: no SERVER lines in license file(-13)". Accessing FME Desktop on the license server itself is successful, however, and the license file appears to be correct (safe.lic in the C:\\FlexServer folder). Unfortunately, the FlexNET documentation does not provide a solution or troubleshooting options to the error message.

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? 

I have been building a server app that writes out an HTML that I was planning on streaming back to users. I was also planning on using an Emailer after this so was going to use a FeatureWriter with HTML output. However, I am finding that when I use a FeatureWriter for the HTML output, FME Server uses the data download service, not data streaming. But when I write the HTML out to a normal writer, the data streaming service works fine and the HTML page opens on it's own. Everything else is the same in the workspace and during publishing (with the exception of the included writers in stream, as it should be different).Has anyone else come across this? Is this a bug?I'm running 2020.0.2.1 Build 20238.

Hi list.Is there a best-practice in how to monitor the health of the FME Server engines?I know that if a workspace runs, the engine used must work, but is that a guarantee that it'll work with any workspace?E.g., has there been built some comprehensive testing workspace, that'll test most aspects of an engine?And how can one log that an engine won't start?I've been asked about this in connection with our upcoming launch of our FME Server for production.Cheers.

When I try to create a Data Streaming Service for a workbench creating a XLSX file, the resulting file originating from FME Server is recognized as a XLS file instead of XLSX. Thus, the downloaded file is test.xlsx.xls.  How can I guarantee that the file is recognized as XLSX? The content-type returned by FME Server is application/vnd.ms-excel. As far as I can see, this is wrong. It should be application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet? 

I'm unable to use SSL with the S3Connector on a FME Server that has valid certs to our AWS. The certs are valid because we have successfully added a resource to the same S3 bucket. If I turn off SSL verification in the transformer, it works successfully. What is different with how the S3Connector works? Has anyone ran into this issue and resolved it?FME Server 2019.1Thank-you!Kathy

Hi, I have troubles setting up an Emailer in FME Desktop 2019. For testing purposes I set up a simple workspace with just a creator linked to an Emailer to send a test mail from my email account to my other email account. I tried different settings for the Encryption and the port number, as documented on my mail providers site but the workspace always produces a fatal error. I'm guessing it is because I'm running the ws inside my companies VPN which would be a problem as my floating FME license only works inside the VPN. In my logfile I get following error messages: The below feature caused the translation to be terminatedEmailer_<Rejected> (TeeFactory): Emailer_<Rejected>: Termination Message: 'Emailer output a <Rejected> feature. To continue translation when features are rejected, change 'Workspac

Hi Everyone, I have a Json file that i want to join to a shapefile. The json file has one row of data and i want this to be added to every row in the shapefile (the shapefile has other fields that will be updated by another shapefile). The fields I want from the JSON file are already in this shapefile. Thanks in advance and hope that makes sense to you all

Hi all,I am wondering can FME find a way to list all feature classes used in my ArcGIS Pro map file? If not can it do it with ArcGIS Desktop files i.e. .mxd? I am struggling to find a way to do this without possibly Python

My local Esri reseller in The Netherlands makes available specific basemaps for its dutch users. Their extent, content and coordinate system have been customized as such. But, more importantly, they are supplied from a different URL than the world basemaps by Esri Inc.The latter are hosted from services.arcgis.com, but the ones I would like to use as a background map are hosted from services.arcgis.nl.The Background Map dialog allows me to either configure a standard web map service, like ArcGIS Online (in this case: arcgis.com). The best choice here, I should think, is "Others".But then the dialog acts like a Reader configuration and I can only choose an ArcGIS feature service, which is not the right one for the basemaps.So, I tried the option "Esri ArcGIS Online (AGOL) Map Service" for the source, and filling in the URL in the "Map List" textbox:
