I am trying to change the authentication from local to windows authentication in Cityworks. What changes do I need in HTTP Caller parameters? Is the chosing NTLM (username, password) under "Authentication" section enough or do I need to add something under "Header" or other parameters?

Hi folks, I have LAS files that are in zipped and stored in a folder. There are 16 LAS files to each zip. Furthermore there are about 100 zips in the folder I'm accessing the data from! The zip files are about 2.5GB on average and I would like to process each zip at a time (sheet1.zip, sheet2.zip etc). I'm adding height attribution to building polygons using a clipper which is a blocking transformer, then the point cloud statistics calculator. I can use the Directory reader to produce a list of zipped files and feed these into a Feature Reader, then use a clipper to clip the LAS data to the building polygons. However the clipper is a blocking transformer which will wait for the FeatureReader to finish. Ideally I want one building polygon dataset for each zip (sheet1.shp, sheet2.shp etc). I need to somehow loop back to the start of my workspace and start again with the next file on the list produced by the directory reader. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm trying to make a dynamic transformer that uses a feature writer to create a temporary file in some format (FFS, CSV, Parquet, doesn't matter) and I need to supply a schema line for the Feature Writer to accept the incoming features. Most readers won't supply one such line, and even though FME is keeps track of some sort of attribute type tag that AttributeMapper is now able to modify, and that

I'm looking for information regarding writing features to geopackage with geometry compatible with Geomedia. I have found the article dealing with Geomedia geometry in Oracle (listed below), but nothing for geopackage. In my testing, FME successfully writes, but the tables are not visible in Geomedia. https://docs.safe.com/fme/2017.0/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/oracle_spatial/GeoMedia_Geometry_Repres.htm

This is more format than FME related but I want to make sure that FME is not the cause of a problem I have with reading a geopackage. I created a workspace that downloads a geopackage from an API and reads it with a FeatureReader for further processing. The geopackage contains a point, a line and a polygon layer but for some reason all 3 layers have the geopackage_type "geopackage_linestring" and fme_geometry "fme_line" in the format attributes (example in the attachment). I created a separate Geopackage with the same geometry types in QGIS and here FME returns the correct types so I'm guessing the geopackage from the API has some SQLite metadata that is not defined correctly. I already checked the metadata in QGIS but here the layer informations show the correct types for each geometry. What or where could be the cause of this problem?

Is there by any chance some kind of 'Paste as Text' option when Copy-Pasting text (often from online sources) to Annotations in Workbench? Personally I sometimes copy online sources to Annotations. However, I constantly struggle that also formatting is copied. For example, when I copy the following from this FME Community question;and paste it in an Annotation of FME Workbench, the result is;Whereas I would like to get;Is there some option/menu in FME Workbench to do so? I'm looking for something similar to the 'Keep Text Only' paste option in Microsoft Office.

Hello friendly FME Community! I'm trying to implement a GeoFencing service which will calculate the time spent by vehicles in particular areas. In short, I have a set of points (with timestamps) and set of polygons (geofences) against which I want to calculate how long these points were inside these polygons.  I did make a workspace which does this using SpatialFilter (which identifies if points were inside polygons) StatisticsCalculator which calculates min and max timestamps and DateTimeCalculator which calculates the interval between this min and max timestamps. The problem is that vehicle can move out of all polygons and then get back which will distort the calculation as the period that vehicle was outside the polygon will be included because last timestamp will be inside the polygon. Is there any trick or technique in FME which allows to follow up these gaps and exclude them from calculation described ab

I have a few AutoCAD drawing files (.dwg) that have a number of 2D and 3D lines and polylines. My goal is to extract all the vertices of each individual line so that I can store it within my GIS database (PostgreSQL). Additionally, I want to extract the layer name and a few other attributes.  Is there a way to extract this data and convert it into a Shape file (.shp) ?  Cheers

I am unable to find online if FME can read data from Power BI. We currently us an SSRS to pull data from multiple sources and write them to a xls file. According to our developers Power BI can't write an xls file the same way so we were wondering if FME can reach into Power BI to pull data out as a reader in the workbench.

Hi, I have a scenario with a random string test; "Häradålderön" which my goal is to se the result to "Haradalderon". Basically replace any [ä, å, ö] with [a, a, o] letter.  I guess using regular expression could do it, but I find it tricky since it might be three sequences to search for ä, å, ö. Any ideas appreciated!

I would like to write some messages to the Log, at the end of a successful Translation.For example, the source schema & table name and the destination schema & table nameIs there a FME Transformer that can write a user parameter to the Log? With some surrounding text?

I am trying to get the result when both "insert" and "unchanged" have values, but if one of them doesn't have a value, it's going to fail. Can anyone please help?

Hi. I aim to reproject the coordinate system EPSG:25832 to a metric coordinate system. Which destination system do you recommend?

Hi everyoneI wanted to know if there is any workflow I can do to convert my points cloud to Cesium 3D tiles and I wanted to be also georeferenced ?

This is my first time using FME to update a database, I usually just write to another file.  I have connected to a specific table in the database (multimedia objects) and I've basically filtered and done a string replacer on some instances in a specific column (product_uri).  How do I now save these changes in the database? I just want to replace the 156 cells I string replaced and keep everything else as it was. 

Hello, I asked the above question in the New To FME forum, but no takers. Lets see what happens here. My goal is to join CAD wall lines that are collinear and have a gap where the door is located (usually 36"). The LineBuilder does not have a conditional option.  Two ways I can think of pursuing are:Group collinear lines that have a gap of 36" between end-point of one line and start-point of another. Lines have all been changed to a positive vector, so end-points are followed by start-points on X or Y axis.Use the CAD Door layer to locate prospective lines. These door symbols are blocks with an insertion point at the hinge. Very standard. Here is a screenshot, attached, of a typical hallway. There are large gaps which should be ignored and others that are approx. 36". On the left, you see two door setbacks. It is not a problem to separate horiz and vert lines if needed. Any help

Hello, I think the answer is easy but I don't know how to do. For each fme_basename value, I want to copy the B3 cell value to the B1 cell.Thank you !

Hello FME Experts that are far smarter than me, I have a very interesting text file that I need to isolate columns for to map points via lat and long values. Below is the URL to the dataset, it relates to fire weather conditions that are updated daily. https://www.wfas.net/images/firedanger/fdr_obs.txt I need to isolate the Colorado-related records and put all the values into their designated columns. If I use the standard text file reader, everything is mashed into one column (see screenshot). I tried using the CAT Reader, but can't seem to get that option to the right place. Does anyone know a better Reader or combination of Transformers that could help delineate these columns of data? 

Good morning, I'm trying to achieve the following: Read DWGs from all folders one level down but no further sub directoriesCurrently have: Directory and file pathnames -> tester (= dwg) -> tester for depth = 1? Was previously using a wildcard but it was going to far into directories and picking up a lot of irrelevant files. Thank you for your help.

I would like to input only 1,000,000 features at a time from a single 60,000,000 feature dataset (Parquet) to a workspacerunner. Can I use featurReader for this? I could select features based on attributes (dates or names) but I cant proces the data per tile or a spatial filter.
