FME Form

Dear, I want to merge two different datasets. One data set has road segments with a maximum speed and the other is bike segments. For each bike segment I want to know what the maximum speed is on the nearby road segment. Now I want to merge for each bike segment the road segments that are near (next to each other) I have tried anchored snapper but that does not work 100procent. Do you have some ideas on how I could take this problem on?Thank you in advance  (purple the road segments, pink? the bike segments) Only the segments that are parallel to each other should be combined 

My workspace is not keeping my user parameters settings. It creates extra blank parameters when I close the User Parameter Editor window, and then my choices become useless at runtime. I’m also not able to delete these extra blank parameters. Downgrading to the stable version of FME Form but wanted to note the bug here.

Hi All, I have FME Form 2023.2.I am trying to make a REST API call using HTTPCaller. I got this error below,{    "code": "data_validation_error",    "message": "Invalid request values. Unexpected character ('_' (code 95)): expected a valid value (number, String, array, object, 'true', 'false' or 'null')",    "status": 400,    "traceId": "240425163408767-2c15ec9a"}However, the same request works just fine on Postman. Not sure what exactly the error means here. Can anyone help me on this?Here is the HTTPCaller screenshot.Here is the request body, Here is the error messages from the Translation log.##########...UpdateRecordCustomTablesHTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): An error occurred while accessing the URL 'https://apis.accela.com/v4/records/PINELLAS-24CAP-00000-0004H/customTables'The below feature caused the translation to be terminatedStoring feature(s) to FME feature store file `C:\FME\Funeral Home\FuneralHomeBillingInterfacefmw_log.ffs'++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

When using Manual Attribute Definition in the XLSX Writer or FeatureWriter, is there a way to copy the Column Formatting between attributes? I have noticed that if I manually add a new attribute beneath one already formatted it copies the Formatting of the one above. But I was hoping there would be an easy way to set one, and then have it applied to all attributes.

Hi, I am looking into a way to setup the HTTP Caller to Update a record in Salesforce, the writer is not suiltable as this is best for bulk, my JSON has the case ID and teh name of the field that nneds updating.I’m not sure how to setup for updating and not sure how to ensure refresh token works?I have followed this guide, https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407494166029-Connecting-to-Salesforce-in-FMEbut it doesn’t connect, coming up with a network error?

Hello.I’m trying to convert and IFC file into CityGML 3 file using the ifc-to-citygml3 FME Workspace, but when I tried to Run it, it shows this error.ISO10303-21: The input data contains a syntax error at the beginning of the file.

Hi, I’m having an issue with the StasticsCalculator returning some nulls for min and max. And also some unexpected rounded max values. Input data I’m calculating statistics on avg_dur field and grouping by SEG_ID. Unexpected results highlighted. The avg_dur field is data type real32. For some reason changing the data type to real64 results in the stats being calculated as expected.The ave_dur field was originally imported from an esri shapefile with data type . 

I have a non-spatial table in MS SQL database with lat/long coordinates. In my workspace I use the VertexCreator + EsriReprojector to create point geometries in our standard projection. Now I want to write the point features to a new feature class in an Enterprise Geodatabase (SQL Server back end).  The database connection I am using for the writer has permission to create table in the geodatabase and I am able to create feature classes in the geodatabase outside of FME.  But in the workspace, the translation fails with this error:“An error occurred while attempting to create the feature class 'My_New_Feature_Class'. The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147216035'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {This geodatabase does not support this client or operation [This geodatabase does not support this client or operation] [My_New_Feature_Class]}I have searched for this error code and do not find much out there, so I am hoping someone here may have add a similar error and found a solu

Hi All,I’m working on an automation that needs to identify those lines that follow the geometry from another layer. The following screenshot explains what I need to do: Red line follows a river (not exactly the same geometry but pretty close) and need to identify those red lines that follows the blue centerline….I was thinking maybe I need to calculate the percentage of overlap between red and blue?There’s other locations where the red line only overlaps the blue lines for a little section so I can ignore those, see belowAny idea how to approach this?

Hi, I am new to FME so might be making a rookie mistake. But I am trying to update AGOL from a GDB shapefile but it won’t update in AGOL. I have managed to get everything to work and it shows the updates but its not sending the data to AGOL. What am i missing here?   

I have a fairly simple problem but can't seem to figure it out. I need to copy one excel file to another folder and rename the copied file. I've tried using the PATH reader and the File Copy Writer but nothing seems to get copied. Any ideas?

Hi everybody,My client has a spreadsheet that contains a list of Google Map urls embedded in text, inside cells in a Google Sheet. Using the Google Sheet  V4 reader, I am unable to read the url of the embedded text into the workspace. For example, I cannot read the url for the Google Map url for Safe’s location in this spreadsheet.  I’m really hoping to mine the lat/long coordinates from these urls. I use FME Desktop V2021.2.2.0 in production, but have Form V 2023.2.1.0 available, if needed.Thanks!

HiCurrently I am converting a DWG file to GDB (file) / SHP,The DWG file itself has line and polygon and they have color based on their different layer name.Once I read the file, it showed only FME feature name, I used AttributeExposer to add autocad color column and a few more useful information, then I used DWGStyler and FeatureColorSetter but once I write the file to GDB or SHP and bring the data to ArcGISPro, the layer has only one single color. (Please see the attachments) Can someone give me a clue how to solve it? 

I have a .csv file with x, y, z coordinates. From these points, I want to create a 3D line. Currently, I have the issue that the z coordinates are not being transferred onto the line when I create a line from the points. Does anyone have an idea of how I can proceed?

I had a FME scenario running to read the feature service and related tables and write to an excel file. I have the excel writer setup to “Fanout” the dataset which used to drop each table from the feature service into its own sheet within excel. I went back to run the FME scenario and when I check the excel outputs some of the tables are missing. Prior to running the scenario I check to make sure all the tables are checked and that the reader is seeing all of the tables, which it is. I check “select all” and run the scenario but when I check excel I get 6 of 9 tables. I have double check every setting and even started a new FME template and recreated the reader/writer but I still don’t get all the tables in the excel output.Can anyone help me out? Thank you

Hi Everyone..I was able to find a workspace from community this template attached and did few changes to it and it is working as expected with sample template provided in workspace to create a GDB with domains , fieldnames and field alias.      1) This workspace consider single default words in domainlist provided in excel  only like Domain1 -      Attached Sample_1_Workspace template - works with 2023 version.This workspace consider single altered words domainlist like alphabets(A,B,C….) in Attached Sample_2_Workspace_template - works with 2023 version  This workspace consider 2 words in domain list like FME form in attached sample_3workspace_template -doesnt work and workspace fails.. If there are any special characters or space it doesnt work like : FME Form or FME_Form. I have attached error log and all sample data files with with each workspace.. Any Experts Kindly support : How can i resolve this with text as FME Form or FME_Form (with a space or special characters. Thanks

Greetings, I’m trying to use an ETL to convert RVT files (2023) into File Geodatabase multi patch, however, the following model produces the right objects, but in the wrong location, even though when reading the RVT file directly in ArcGIS Pro, the building falls in the right place. Any clue? 

I have been trying to set up a batch process to create dwg files, adding a template based on the respective input file.  I have tried to follow the advice from the links below, but am missing something or what I am doing isn’t quite the same.  At any rate, my workspace fails after trying numerous different configurations.  Published ParametersBatch processing I have attached the two Workspaces.  The goal is to apply a CAD template to it’s respective output file, with the inputs controlled by the WorkspaceRunner parameters. The Workspace that outputs dwgs takes inputs from three sources:  Two different folders of CAD files (one of which also happens to be same as the template but used for a different purpose), and a spreadsheet .  Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.

My dataset contains some river basins polygons, with 1 forestry polygon falling into each one. Each river basin also contains multiple habitat polygons. I am trying to measure the distance (edge to edge) between the forestry polygon and each of the habitat polygons falling within the same river basin. I’ve done some spatial joins to associate each forestry polygon and each habitat polygon to it’s respective river basin, but I’m unsure how to measure the distances between them, while grouping by river_basin_id. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,I’m trying to improve the performance of my workbench by reducing the number of transformers. I was able to use AttributeManager to calculate the length of lines with the expression @Length() but I can’t work out how to round up the value up to 3 decimal places,Is that doable using the arithmetic expression instead of AttributeRounder transformer? 

Hello,I am trying to convert data from shapefile to DWG.To do that, I am using the DWGStyler to assign the correct setting to each object.Reading the post in the community, I am able to use the DWGStyler using a template and the right color is assigned to each object in CAD so, I see the match between the color in the canvas and the color in the Layer’s list. But, in some cases, I don’t have the template and when I open the file in autocad I can see the right color in the canvas assigned by the DWGStyler but in the Autocad list layer I see all layers in “red”, I attached an example. How can I resolve this situation to have the perfect match for the layer’s colors to avoid a manual rework without using the template? Thanks Max  

I have a Flow App, which performs a relatively long process, which at the end directs the user to a certain url following the success or failure of the process.The url reference is made by a single HTML writer at the end of the process.My problem is that this process can take some time,And in terms of the user experience, the customers are not aware that the process is running behind the scenes.I want to make a reference to some kind of loading GIF that will at least show them that something is really moving behind the scenes..And this is where I need your help.Because if I write to two HTML writers, it simply downloads the two HTML files for me,It does not direct me HTML line after HTML, but simply disrupts the process.Does anyone have a solution?It doesn't even have to be a reference to the HTML of the loading GIF, just an indication in terms of the user experience that will tell the customer: "Don't worry, a few seconds and you move to the next screen"Thank you!Dor

I’m working on an upload process via REST call and I want to use FME to do the upload.For the API I need to provide a list of file names in advance. I want this to just work and I want to be able to use FME’s multiple file picker to allow the user to pick folders, multipler files or just a single file. etc.Does anyone have a good/robust method for getting a full list of the files (and filenames) that this input could be.My initial plan is to split up the input parameter into a list and then figure out what are folders and what are files and for folders I would use a PATH reader to get the files.I guess I need a “MultiFilePathResolver” kind of thing. 

Problem in short:I have a lot of points which some has identical coordinates. PointOnPointOverlayer does this for me and store the “twins” in a list name. Now I want to use a Pythoncaller to loop through the list of each feature and figure out if some or none of the twin attributes has a value that should update the the major feature. The problem is that I cant seem to reach the list variable created in PointOnPointOverlayer from the Pythoncaller. It seems to be exposed when running with feature cache and checking output from PointOnPointOverlayer. What’s the magic for reading the list, looping throug it and check the attribute values? Tried this example code from the PythonCaller just to see if I could reach the list but can’t see anything:  

Hi everybody!I have a point layer and a line layer. The line layer consists of connected lines, and at the lines endpoints there is a point from the point layer in the exact same location. I moved the points in the z-direction because their height had to be corrected (new z-values were derieved from a point cloud). Now i also want to move the corresponding line endpoints in z-direction as well so that they again match the points in x, y and z. I guess the AnchoredSnapper with Group Processing could do the job but don’t know how to prepare the data for that. Can anyone help me with this? red: original position of points and lines; green: points moved in z-direction due to height correctionQuestion: How can I make the lines follow the points in z-direction? I am grateful for any advice!
