FeatureReader NOT showing output ports.

I am using the FeatureReader to connect to an ESRI SDE. I have specified the features to read, and selected Output Ports: One per feature, BUT out put ports are not being created for the features I specified. In only the default ports are available. I am having a similar issue with another FeatureReader that is pointed to a FGDB. I had to change the directory path for the FGDB and now all of the output ports are gone. I reset all of the "Features to Read" but like the above, I am not getting out put ports for the features I have specified. In the above there are no Output ports for the features specified.in the above only some of the Output ports for the features specified are available.

I am using Data Interoperability Extension for ArcMap, and just upgraded to ArcMap 10.8.1. When I try to run my tool, it won't connect to our database and I get an error message. "unable to read file from..." it's looking for the 'fme_publicKey.fm

The folder that should be containing the .fmeks file has .jceks files. Everything was working correctly before I upgraded to ArcMap 10.8.1. Error message is attached.

How to make multiple layers export as multiple tabs in a .CSV

Hi All, I'm very new to FME so excuse my noobiness. I'm bring in a roughly 20 shapefiles and running them through a attribute filter to pull out the ones with a matching project number, from there i'm exporting them out as a .csv. As it currently stands all results are put into one spreadsheet. not ideal. i would like them all in one spreadsheet but as separate tabs for each individual layer. As a work around i've made each layer its own attribute filter running to its own .csv writer, then i'm copying them into a single spreedsheet.

How do you setup an authenticated websocket

How do you setup an authenticated websocket? We have a websocket that we need to connect to and then transform the data in FME. The connection is an authenticated one, the behaviour is attempt connection to the destination and port, the socket server then expects an a string as authentication. How do we send this in FME? Preference is to use a notification or an automation. Don't want to use a transformer as tis requires an extra engine I believe.

PDF - tagged pdf files

We have a workspace on a FME Server that creates PDF files using Adobe Geospatial PDF Writer in FeautreWriter.The files are transported into another system via PDF.js. Apparently PDF.js can't transport tagged PDF-files (?). Can I somehow make the FeatureWriter creater non-tagged PDF-files?Or is there other ways to get around this issue?

How to fix the order of user parameters in FME Server 2023?

Hello,I would like to creat a server app in version beta 2023 and I have some user parameters in my workspace that use the conditional visibility. After publishing the workspace in FME Server 2023, the order of user parameters get wrong (using conditional visibility, after selecting an option, the next parameter should be displayed under or after the first parameter but it displays before the first parameter and it is confusing)Do you have any idea how can I fix the order in FME Server? Thanks

ArcGISOnlineConnector - update not accepting Form

Hi all, I try to use the ArcGISOnlineConnector to update an existing Survey123 Form item on ArcGIS Online, but no success this far. When I choose Request type 'Update' and upload a zip-file with the same contents as downloaded via the 'Download' action I get the fme_rejection_message:"file must have AGOL item type 'Form'" and fme_rejection_code INVALID_FILE. When I slightly adjust the downloaded zip file by removing the folder 'esriinfo', leave its contents intact and zip these files again with the same file name, it still shows this rejection code. This latter file structure is actually the same as in a blog post by Esri that demonstrates how to use the AGOL REST API and update the item in a Python script. So I expect this to work:https://community.esri.com/groups/survey123/blog/2017/12/08/an-alternative-way-to-update-the-media-folder-of-a-survey123-form-item Any ideas on how I could get this working with the ArcGISOnlineConnector?

Convert json-file to ESRI line feature class

I have a json-file (see attachment) that contains the coördinates of a circular route. It looks like this:{ "segments": [{ "geometry": { "type": "LineString", "coordinates": [ [50.814103, 4.521174], [50.81309, 4.521811], [50.80626, 4.536902], [50.80482, 4.538866], [50.80573, 4.541452], [50.80621, 4.543173], [50.80705, 4.545501], [50.80755, 4.546541], [50.80777, 4.546841], [50.80919, 4.547739], [50.8096, 4.548199], [50.81052, 4.550243], [50.810663, 4.551096] ] }, { "geometry": { "type": "LineString", "coordinates": [ [50.810663, 4.551096], [50.81065, 4.555264], [50.81071, 4.555622] ] },...

Suppress annoying WARN messages of AutoCAD FeatureReader?

Is there a possibility to suppress annoying WARN messages of the 'Autodesk AutoCAD RealDWG DWG/DXF' FeatureReader? Please see the following example:I use the AutoCAD reader to read features from an DWG file. I am only interested in the features of one specific layer (specified by a user parameter):Hence, the AutoCAD reader reads the file and skips all layers but the specified one. In the log, the reader starts writing which layers are skipped. These messages are written at 'Information' level. After writing the 10th skip message, it writes a message "Further instances of this message will be suppressed" on WARN level. -----As text:2023-03-23 14:17:38| 1.8| 0.0|INFORM|AutoCAD Reader: Successfully opened the 'Release2018' AutoCAD file '<SOME_PATH>'2023-03-23 14:17:38| 1.9| 0.1|INFORM|AutoCAD Reader: Features for feature type '0' will be skipped based on the feature types requested2023-03-23 14:17:38| 1.9| 0.0|INFORM|AutoCAD Read

Use rater Data to Validate my vector Data

Dear FME Community,I am currently working on a project that involves a vector point file containing electricity power plants. As part of my quality control process, I need to check if there are any power plants that overlap with the point file.I am wondering if there is an automatic way to check for this overlap, as there would be two situations, one where point file is overlapping with power plant in satellite imagery, or else it is not. I want to ensure the accuracy of the data and identify any potential errors. We can hover to locations and find it, but can there be something more in an automated way?I would greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions from the FME community on how to best approach this quality control challenge. Thank you in advance for your help!

PDF reader error on transformation with large amount of PDFs

Hi! I have a workspace where I mainly use a PDF reader to read around 5000 pdf:s in folders and subfolders (defined by the dataset “…\\**\\*.pdf”).The workspace is large and quite complex but the thought is to take the pdf file name, which is an object ID, and combine it with other files that contain the IDs coordinates, etc. The pdfs contain other info on the objects that get extracted through its predetermined local coordinates.The workspace has worked excellently, but since recently it doesn’t complete. The only change I recall is that the amount of pdf:s keep increasing as times goes by. I’d say that last time it worked was then it contained around 3000-4000 files.I also find the reasons for the error to be sporadic. Mainly the workspace runs though a few hundred pdf:s, but eventually I get the message that the pdf cannot be opened “because the file is not in PDF format, or because it is corrupted”. Sometimes the program just crashes. The pdf can be individually read with no issues

How to use use adjacent (previous) feature handling in AttributeManager to calculate value for same attribute

Hi,I have a workflow where I need to forecast particular values. The formula to calculate this forecast value (in Attribute A) needs to reference the previous feature in Attribute A, but the AttributeManager doesn't allow you to reference ajacent features (in this case, previous) for the same attribute. Is there a way I can do this? I wonder if a looping process would help. Thanks

Combined TopoJSON file for multiple objects.

I have a request to convert some postgis geom data into TopoJSON. However they want the output to be single combined file similar to what is produced by https://mapshaper.org/ I can easily create individual TopoJSON files in FME. (Simple read postgis and connect to TopoJSON writer.) But I have not figured how I can produce a combined file with multiple objects in it like what is done with mapshaper.org site. I uploaded sample TopoJson output files from FME and the sample combined file from mapshaper. I figure this will likely need some type of python code, which is fine, but I'm hoping to not install any additional modules outside what FME provides. Currently using FME 2020.2. That is what company uses. But I can use new FME version if it had options for doing this in some update.

What might actually be causing the GlobalID-related error I am getting from the ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer?

I am getting the following error when I use the ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: "ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: Multiple Global IDs defined for feature type 'd_y_n'. This is not permitted." I am trying to copy the data from one ArcGIS Online (AGOL) hosted feature layer to another hosted feature layer with the identical schema. The source is a view-only feature layer, and the target is an editable, blank duplicate of the source. The target has hasVersionData=false and supportsApplyEditsWithGlobalIDs=true. All layers with attachments have global IDs defined and all attachment relationships are defined to use GlobalIDs as keys. In the Writer parameters, I have tried Use Global IDs=No and also UseGlobal IDs=Yes and Preserve Global IDs=Yes. I still get the same error with either of these cases. What might be going on here? I can't say I really know what the error is getting at. Might the problem be that there is at least one table that is related to two ot
