FME Form

I have a feature class with a single feature that I need to convert to a multipolygon type geoJson file. I'm not super familiar with geoJSON, and I'm being told this is a hard requirement. How does one create a multipolygon geoJSON file from a single feature?

I have FeatureReader transformers within my workspace that are configured to read features from an Excel file.  The name and path of the Excel file are variables provided by parameter values, but the Excel sheet name is always the same. The schema of the file is likely to vary every time the workspace is run.  I'm really struggling to get any features to read in, and am a bit unsure of where I'm going wrong. From similar posts in the past (eg; https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hdRJSAY/how-to-expose-attributes-from-featurereader-if-feature-type-is-dynamic) it seems that what I'm trying to do potentially isn't possible without scripting something bespoke in a PythonCaller, but it really seems like something that FME should be able to do. Does anyone have an

I have two tab files and while joining them I get this error for one of the row ERROR |FeatureJoiner (FeatureJoinerFactory): The UTF-16LE string 'DOÃƑ±A ANA-HILL' could not be converted to the encoding: windows-1252.

Hello,I have a SQLExecutor connecting to my SDE on a SQL database. I am using the Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial Format with an embedded Connection. My SQL Statement is:FME_SQL_DELIMITER ; GO DISABLE TRIGGER gisowner.SEGME_MSLINK_COUNTER ON gisowner.[a10]; GOI get the following errors:Query failed, possibly due to a malformed statement.Provider error `(-2147217900) Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'TRIGGER'.'A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for detailsFailed to read features from dataset 'AHS_GIS' using the 'MSSQL_ADO' reader

Just curious about it as there are different approaches, and would like to understand better my results and analysis.

I am converting ESRI gdb tables to Josn format(text_line), but unfortunately few of attribute values are given extra/unnecessary precision?data from tables : "aos" : 105.20 ,"aos" : 293.22 output generated : "aos" : 105.20999999999999, "aos" : 293.22000000000003To avoid this I have used attribute rounder , but no use, client required only 2 digits after (it should be float) . could some one help to resolve this issue on this.I have used the below transformers gdb readerattribute manager and attribute rounderJosn templaterText file writer (text_line)Thanks in advanceChandra Sekhar Guda  

I am trying to extract getVertexIndices from a mesh and I have to implement a loop when I use the getVertexIndices() method. Also, I am getting different sizes of the list coming through the getVertexIndices() method. Is there a way to get the list of all vertex indices at once and of uniform size?  @daveatsafe​ @Takashi Iijima​ @Hans van der Maarel​ 

As workaround I can create user parameter as intermedia parameter then get it accessed by shutdown python script. But I am more like to find the way to let shutdown python script to DIRECTLY access deployment parameters. Any tip?Thanks,Daniel

I have 200 files. Their names have spaces. I want to replace these spaces in each file name with a dash. What is the best way to do this. I know I start with the pathnames reader. But, what is the next transformer(s) I need to add?

I have a gdb with polygons ( multipolygons). I read polygons and simply write to a new gdb and my polygons holes are filled? It happens also while reading Isee. As if there is a geometry validation happening. How can I stop this? It is really annoying.  

Hi, I need some help setting a basic test with the tester transformer. I'm trying to fail rows from a feature if they match any values in a csv file I've added as a reader. I'm having some issues getting things configured correctly. So something like NOT @Value(field) Contains <Right value>. But I can't seem to connect the right value. Connecting the csv as an input isn't what I want, but I cant figure out the syntax to use in conjunction with '$(SourceDataset_CSV2)'. Sorry for this basic question but I couldn't figure this out looking at the documentation. Thank you.

Hello, I wanted to continue my course when I realised that instead of eight completed modules there is only three. Howewer in the list of completed modules there is the correct number. It seems that there is no cenection between modules and the whole course. When I click to continue course it shows up an empty incomplete module next to the completed one.

Hello Forum, I've searched previous questions, but couldn’t find an answer. I've no doubt someone has posted this before. But, sorry, I couldn’t see it. I need to replace a specified value within an attribute to another value. I have an attribute (field) called Zone Type. Each cell in that attribute has one of several possible values. Where the value is "container" I need to replace it with "Outside CPZ". I don’t want to change any other values. How do I do this? I've tried through AttributeManager but couldn’t work it out. Thanks,Stuart  

The first dataset has 10500 objects ( a table with x,y id, date,etc. etc.)The second dataset 7000 object s )(a table with x,y,id ,,date, adress etc.etc.)Based on the x and y we would like to get a combined file as a result.Where all 10,000 objects from the first dataset are located at the closest object to an address point.A list of these.. It seemed logical to us to use the transformer neighbor finder for this. But this doesn't work. ideas more than welcome  Johan 

I have a column that contains a lot of special characters. By using transformer 'StringReplacer', I can replace i.e. an '#' by an ' '; How can I replace a list of special characters of 10 or more characters. Do I need to use 10 StringReplacers?

Hello!I have a newly installed PostgreSQL database with a PostGIS extension enabled. Because of licencing consideration we want to migrate our oracle database to this database. We are using database side bussiness logic in our views, so i want to write directly to the views without success.We have Postgresql 12 AND postgresql 16 for compatibility testingEvery version of FME from 2018-2023 (mainly using 2018 because we have too many scripts to migrate all) I have tried most of the version combination with the same error every time. This is what im trying:Created the table definition with FMEBased on the created definition created a simple view but the workbench keep dropping this error: Invalid PostGIS metadata detected for table 'public.generated_np_node_view'. Attempting to correct and continuePOSTGIS Writer: Table 'public.generated_np_node_view' does not exist.

We have a process that sends an e-mail to approximately 10,000 subscribers to inform them of crime in their area based off a buffer from the subscriber address that we are considering to replace. Is this feasible using FME Flow or FME Hosted? Or is that too many e-mails to send at once using these platforms?

I have a map that has 5 layers in it and want to have them all displayed using different symbology in the HTML Layouter but I can only define a single colour for the layer.Is it possible to generate HTML output with a little more cartographic input for each incoming layer?

Hi. I have a workspace that is using the Micostation DGN (v8) reader that's reading files from a Projectwise URL collection. It's currently reading four dgn files successfully however when trying to add other I'm getting an error message. Failed to obtain any schemas from reader 'IGDS' from 1 datasets. This may be due to invalid datasets or format accessibility issues due to licensing, dependencies, or module loading. See logfile for more informationWorkspace generation failed. Parameter file was C:\\Users\\{USER}\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\FME_1701131211957_17128 I've tried opening the files in a clean workspace and even rebooted my machine to rule that out. The same message persists. Within the reader I'm "Grouping Elements By Scheme - Level Names"and selecting "Preserved Names Cell Insert Points". I also assign a coordinate system to the dataset. 

Can FME be used to produce heat maps?  Kind of like this:  http://www.openheatmap.com/  I have about 20 million points and I would like to show where the hotspots are.

Hi, I know this has been partially answered here but it doesn't quite answer my exact issue.I'm trying to use FTPCaller to download a file from an SFTP site but get the error 'Failed Initialisation'. FME will create the target file fine but with no data in it, and with the above error.I have tested FTPCaller on other SFTP sites and it works fine. I can download the file using Filezilla and I can also get the file download to work using the SystemCaller transformer to run a batch file which runs PuTTY (using a PSCP comand line). All with the same credentials.All file permissions appear to be setup fine and I've tried changing every parameter in the FTPCaller with the exception of SSH-agent/Pageant authentication. Having already got it to run with PuTTY I didn't see any advantage to going down this rout
