In the same manner as I can get the name of the workspace via the $(WORKSPACE_NAME) Trying to make it easier to bugfix scripts if they fail or get terminated by a terminator transformer. The message is then sent to a teams-channel.

To get the number of features from a FeatureClass in a File Geodatabase you can use arcpy's GetCount.arcpy.management.GetCount(<featureclasspath>)So I tried and got this working.import fmeimport fmeobjectsimport arcpy class FeatureProcessor(object):     def __init__(self):        pass     def input(self, feature):        arcpy.env.workspace = feature.getAttribute('path_windows')         feature_classes = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses()                fc_list = []         for fc in feature_classes:            count = arcpy.GetCount_management(fc)            fc_list.append((fc, int(count[0])))            print(fc_list)         self.pyoutput(feature)    def close(self):        pass     def process_group(self):        passBut no matter what I tried, I could not get the list to the feature. I expected it to be something like:feature.setAttribute("fc_list",fc_list)The log keeps reporting the error:Python Exception <TypeError>: Could not convert attribute value to a supported attribute

I read files from Sharepoint. Sometimes I can read all the files but other times (no obvious pattern) I get this error msg when reading the exact same files again:`fme_rejection_message' has value `SharepointOnlineConnector: Could not connect to server. Check that you are connected to the internet and that no firewall is blocking outbound connections. The error was 'HTTPSConnectionPool(host='graph.microsoft.com', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=60)''Can I somehow easily adjust the read timeout?

I have a File geodatabase with field aliases that are in the correct case that I wish to preserve, however, I need the field names to be in uppercase.  I have tried to do this using the AttributeExposer, followed by a Tester:with the values that end with _alias being passed directly to the writer while the values that fail i pass to a BulkAttributeRenamer to convert them to uppercase before passing them to the writer.  - but i don't think the aliases are being passed to the writer properly because everything ends up in uppercase. How can i correct this, preferably while still using the Tester transformer?

Hello, I have the following problem. I have a file with a lot of rings, which all have a unique ID. On the other side I have a lot of raster files which also have this ID as file name. Now I want to crop each one of the raster files to the corresponding outline with the same ID. These cropped individual raster files are then to be saved individually. How can I tell the Clipper Transformer to "blend" the ID of the ring with the ID of the raster file ? Maybe someone can give me a hint. Many thanks and best regardsMaisels

how to do it such that upon getting the value of ward_no it should run the model for the data pertaining to the ward and how to pass the parameter value (in this case ward_no) to fme workbench reader to make the process dynamic.

Newb here, I'm using FME a lot for simple GIS feature class extraction, from source DB to a target DB, pretty straight forward. After many of these I'm thinking there must be a simpler way to map the source and targets.Per image below, reader layers on the left and writer layers on the right, then I manually connect them. The writers are identical, no changes or alterations required, surely there is a way around the manual connecting of source/target.

Hello,I'm relatively new to using FME and have been tasked with synchronizing a local folder and it's subfolders with Sharepoint. I have installed and configured the FME SharepointOnlineConnector and it is successfully synchronizing the contents of the folder and it's subfolders to Sharepoint in its default configuration. The only issue I'm having is there are some .xml files that are present in these folders that I do not want to synchronize. Does the connector provide any means of white or blacklisting specific file types from being uploaded? If not, does anyone have any suggestions on how this would be best accomplished? The section titled "Clean up your SharePoint Documents" in the following link would allow me to delete the unneeded files after the load, however this is not ideal as it would mean the files are unnecessarily created and deleted on every load.https://community.safe.com/s/article/Reading-and-Writing-SharePoint-Libraries-with-FME Ideally I wo

when Reading feature class Unable to read from the table/feature class 'schemaName.table'. If 'schemaName.table' contains a class extension, make sure it is registered on this computer. The sde backend is Oracle and SDE 10.8.1

In FME flow if I had a process which downloaded physical files to resources folder but as part of the data workflow, these files will need be deleted once files are utilised, what is the best way to go?

Hi, I have a table with 10 points. I convert these points into a squares of 100 by 100 meters. Then I cut another table on these squares with the clipper. Next I want to make a PDF file of each square separately with a map of the 100 by 100 area. So it should be 10 separate pdf files. How can you best handle that? Currently the squares are put in 1 pdf instead of 1 pdf per squares. I've tried looping the PDFPageformatter, but it's not allowed. 

Hi, I have las files to process and update the SDE as contours. One of the attributes which I need to include is a creation date. Unfortunately, when I try to use Attribute Manager to create the new column 'DATE' the value based on 'las_file_creation_date' is added as a new row and doesn't update the whole column as the attached print screen. Does anyone come across similar problem? Thanks

I am snapping points to line based on unique id (using group by). I tried using both vertex snapping or segment snapping. In both of these case, the points are being snapped to endpoints in some cases ( as per screenshot). I don't want to snap the point to endpoint at all, but it can be anywhere on the line. How to achieve snapping the point on the line other than endpoint of the line? Thank you

I would like to try the Visvalingam-Wyatt algoritm in one of my projects since the results look promising and it can be run on polygons.  Thing is that I have never used PythonCaller, or coded in python. Before I dive in I have a few questions: Has anyone got this simplification algoritm up and running in FME using one of the code samples of github? Was there a way to retain the borders between areas? That would be a must have for me.  

I'm trying to solve how I can get the properties for a Excel worksheet. I have over 5000 Excel files trying to parse. These files fall into 6 different formats for data extraction. However all the files are created from an Excel template which starts with all the worksheets for all the different formats. Depending on the user's initial selection using a VBA marco in Excel certain worksheets will be visible or not.  I'd really like to test if certain worksheets are visible and then take actions accordingly in FME.  Also important is all these files are formatted as XLS (older Excel) and not XLSX .

The file with the error is not the one listed here, and I don't know where the translation is getting the parameter that has the error.

Hi, I would like to merge the two lines below into a single line, since they have the same ID field number, and the other information is the same, except VARIED, which can be any value, either BBC2 or BBC4. How can I do that? Thank´s 

Hi, Attached I have two sets of data with several polygons. The two are almost identical, but one has different polygons or more polygons than the other. How can I do it using FME? I already used the Spatial Relator transformer and change detector transformer but the results were not good. I want to know the difference between the two, that is what appeared in one and what disappeared in the other. can anybody help me? Thanks

I have created a custom transformer and exposed all external attributes from the input port. I have two attributes, they are called Attribute1 and Attribute2. On the output port, I have set Attribute To Output to Specified Attributes Only. Now I can select/unselect attributes from the list. I have unselected Attribute2 and pressed Ok but the settings don't work. Both attributes are still present outside of the custom transformer on its output port. When I reopen the properties of the output port, both attributes are still selected. But now I cannot unselect them anymore. They are greyed out although Specified Attributes Only is still selected. It doesn't help to change Attribute To Output to All Attributes and back to Specified Attributes Only. When I restart FME, the attributes are not greyed out anymore, but it doesn't matter if I unselect attributes on the output port. The settings take no effect when I press Ok. I'm using FME(R) 2022.2.1.0 (20221202 - Build 22776 -

I've been trying to find a solution to change the start /end vertex of a closed polyline. I have a point where i want the polygon to start, how can I easily reorder all the vertices?

I've recently been provided with a large number of relatively small KMZ files which contain track data recorded by field staff using GPS. This is usually a simple extraction process, however the data is now being provided as a gx:MultiTrack within the KMZ file.(More Info - https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlreference#gxmultitrack)When using FME, it processes the features as if they have no geometry. Currently I'm reading the data in as an xml and extracting the coordinates to build line features as a work around, but not sure it's the best way.Has anyone dealt with MultiTracks before using FME and have any tips or tricks to extract the geometry cleanly? Thanks in advance.

HI,  I am copying Multipatch features from one file GDB to another, but when i do this they rendered and solid black features when viewed in ESRI  This  Instead of this   Any thoughts on what is happening?  Thanks Jacky
