FME Form

Hello I try to set up a processing chain to compare provider shape files and those of my database to integrate them into postgres database. however I am not sure to use the right transform to detect errors in data. I’m an idea taker if you have any =) thank you

I am using FME 2022. When I tried to publish data to ArcGIS Porta, I had the error message as below: ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: Encountered an unexpected error. The error code from the server was '409' and the message was: 'Item 'tmps4rtbkh5.zip' already exists.'. Details: '' Translation Failed. I checked my portal site and found FGDB named 'tmps4rtbkh5.zip' has been published but the feature service hasn't been created, but I can download 'tmps4rtbkh5.zip' file to my local drive. Seems FME already publish the data into portal but failed to generate the feature service from the data. Does anyone have any ideas about this? I used FME2019 to publish data to ArcGIS Portal, never had this problem before. Thanks

I am trying to come up with a way to use FME Desktop to process files that will be automatically exported from a system and will likely be named with a timestamp (eg filename20230512132945.xlsx). The goal is to create an automated process to handle these files as the appear. I already run FME Desktop from the command line (via windows Task Scheduler), but I am wondering if there is a way to do it and also specify the name of the file I want to have read as a parameter? Something like C:\\fme.exe workbench.fmw inputFile.xlsx I don't think I am going to be able to count on these files having the same name every time, otherwise I could just run the workbench (c:\\fme.exe workbench.fmw) I'd be grateful for any suggestions. I would happily try to do this with FME Server but it is not currently available to me. Thanks, Mike

I am trying to add an extra label for each point of the point cloud based on whether or not they were located inside or outside the gml building model. When I clipped a model with my point cloud data with "Clipper", it only identified that point cloud was outside and that point cloud data was identified as 1 feature own on its. How do I label/mark each point in the point cloud whether they clipped with the model or not and then save it as an extra information/variable in a new las file.

I am trying to create a workbench to extract wms features into vector https://data.gns.cri.nz/tsunami/wms.html. I am wanting to extract out points and associated attribute data that is relating to each tsunami event

We have been using ArcGIS 10.8.1 (32bit) with arcFM solution and FME 2020.2 (Desktop and Server) (32bit). We use FME to read and write to the esri geodatabase (ArcSDE Geodb). I am trying to update FME to the newest version 2022.2.5 (64bit). I read that it should be possible to have 32bit ArcGIS and 64bit FME after installing background geoprocessing. However when I am starting the workspace with python startup script for fetching the licenses for ArcGIS and ArcFM I get error: "Python Exception <com_error>: (-2147221164, 'Class not registered', None, None)". This error comes up using fmepython310 + pywin32 library installed. Pywin32 also includes the pythoncom and it is installed the same way than in the previous version. I have also tried to use the 32bit fmepython37 from the older FME version, but FME 2022 is not recognizing it and automatically switches back to python 3.10.

Is it possible to use Web Connection authentication in the HTTPCaller transformer to access ArcGIS Online REST APIs without additional steps to obtain a token?

This may be a little simple but it seems not to work for me, I have a workspace that reads a .csv file and runs a process. Ideally i would like to move this csv file once the process is complete and rename it by date. What i have tried so far, After the reader i created a junction and I put one process to run through the whole workspace and another arrow i put to a DateTime stamper, DateTimeConverter and created the attributes filecopy_source_dataset, filecopy_dest_dataset and filecopy_dest_filename, (based on several tutorials i have been reading.) I then use the filecopy writer to move the file. The file gets moved but the name is not changed and i get a warning that --> Ignoring the destination filename .. because the source dataset...was not a file. Destination file names are only used when the source dataset is a file. For some reason the exact name i did set ( @Value(Datum)_@Value(filecopy_dest_filename) ) is shown in the written summary but not on the folder, anyone with an idea

When converting IFC to OBJ using FME, how does the information in IFC change to OBJ's attributes?

Looking at the regular Sample\\austinDownload.fmw. When running this through the GUI with an actual email in Email result to field. The workspace will run, create a datadownload url and notify the topics DATADOWNLOAD_ASYNC_JOB_FAILURE or DATADOWNLOAD_ASYNC_JOB_SUCCESS and send e-mail. That is nice When I DONT write an e-mail. It will NOT notify the topics and it will not send an e-mail. So far so good. However how to replicate this through the REST-API of FME Server? I found the 8 year old thread regarding this: Using REST API submit, how to send email (safe.com) However have there been some changes on the REST API the last 8 years to better handle this?

Hello! The FME im using: FME Workbench 2022.2.5 Im a student and using our floating license at school. No matter how big/small the script is, it will just freeze at random. If i place a simple node or hit export, the program just locks up and i have to either wait forever or just exit the program. My computer is quite powerful so that shouldnt be the issue... Is there anyway for me to share more information that could help solve this issue?

I have street centerlines (Line Feature Class) with intersection points (Point Feature Class) the end of each line. ​ I am using the PointOnLineOverlayer and only the attributes of one of the end points is included in the output. ​ Using the picture here as an example, I want the Line output from the PointOnLineOverlayer Transformer to include the attributes something like this: A St will include attributes of Pt 1 and Pt 3; B St will include the attributes of Pt 3 and Pt 2; C St will include the attributes of Pt 3 and Pt 4; Currently, here is my Line output: A St includes attributes of Pt 3; B St includes attributes of Pt 2; C St includes attributes of Pt 3. Any ideas on how to ensure each Line includes the attributes of the points at each end of the line instead of only a point at one end of the line?

I want to make a transformation from IFC to IndoorGML. The core modules of IndoorGML can be written correctly, but I can write any point geometry or line geometry into routeNodes/routeSegments which are the navigation extension modules in IndoorGML. I think if I can know the right parent class of "Route", the routeNodes/routeSegment inherited from it can be written correctly. Hope someone can help me!!!! I can't find the actual inheritance relationship in IndoorGML schema!

Hi everyone! I have a really strange problem connecting Google Drive to FME. Until this morning, I could very easily connect my Google Drive to FME Desktop and then straight to the server. As of this morning, I receive a message like this when I want to log in to Google: Can anyone help me? #### Edit: We tried to do it on another computer, And it is the same problem.

I could extract XYZ of each Corner (4 XYZ point of cube corner) or Mid-Point of each Surface (1 XYZ point) or Center Point of 3D Cube (1 XYZ point ). The challenge here is Once ALL the XYZ are extracted, there is no way to tell which XYZ belongs to which i.e. Front side , Back side , Top , Bottom, Left Side or Right Side (6 side) Also where there are lot of 3D cubes around, i believe there we need to create unique_id for each coordinates using GlobalId+Name+ XYZ ID the idea is to extract L direction (Longest Direction ) and F direction (Angle facing) in below format

I would like to be able to read other tab in ACC. Right now the AutodeskBIM360DocsConnector transformer returns only the list of files within a project which correspond to the first tab. I can't read the other tabs such as reviews or Issues @david_r​ , @andreaatsafe​ , @Takashi Iijima​ and others , any ideas?

Hello all, Please I am seeking help / support to extract ANGLE & LONGEST direction of the geometrical object in below format for each object. L is the longest direction of object (In the direction of the longest dimension on the element ) F is the object facing direction to (In the direction of the normal vector from the centre point) I could obtain the longest /shortest / angel direction from Bounding Box / Length Calculator but not sure to relate it in which direction ? In this case its 3d objects fitted in a room. Square 3D Objects Rectangular 3D Objects Circular 3D Objects F and L of this front side I have extracted 4 Front facing Corner Vertices and 1 mid- point of it of the front side of plate Also using bounding box as i have extracted Back side (bolts) corner points and the 1 centre-point of entire bounding box object (including plate + bolts ), if this helps. This objects are part of walls / floors / ceiling of room. Please also take into consideration, sometimes this walls ar

Hi, I'm using FME workbench 2022.2, Build 22789 - WIN64. I'm trying to process several thousand JP2 files. I'm finding that trying to open just one JP2 file (~1.5GB) in the inspector doesn't seem to work ... by that I mean I stop the process after waiting about 30 minutes. Thanks in advance for help!

HI I use the Arcgis data Interoperabilty for the exercise present on the FME academy but I received an error related to the reprojection so I suspect that the Arcgis data interoperability reprojection is a little bit different than FME can you support please ? thx Francesco

i want to add volume of each building part of my CityGML file in its attribute .And than export it in the CityGML format it self,but i dont want any kind of data loss in quality wise . Can you guys please help me on this ? Thanks Srikant

Hi all, I am working with a huge database with 300+ layers. Many layers are the same for each province and they have the same structure in their attribute table. Many of the attributes are empty but that differs from state to state (f. ex. height might be empty in 20 provinces and in 5 there is a value). Is there a transformator that shows me which attributes are completely empty for each layer and allows me to filter them without checking each attribute for each province individually? That would be a great help. Thank you all :)

Hello So i have been successful with all other features, but this one seems to me more challenging. The point of interests is 1 and 8 the same on other side of the RAIL . Highly obliged with LOGIC / FLOW

I have a spatial data set that contains line data that I need to write to a MSSQL table. Unfortunately at the moment the table is being created but no data is being written to it despite FME saying it is successful. I have my writer set up and it can be seen in the attached screenshot. I'm wondering how I can force the data into the table?
