Is there a way to take a table as input and split it out into multiple outputs based on the value of an attribute (that I may not know)?I have a table of data that refreshes daily and one of the columns is for an object value. Most of the features (non-spatial) will have the same value for this field but people do have the option to set it to a different value that would be specific to them. Depending on the person adding data, the value could be different from one day to the next. Is there a transformer that will split a table out based on the value of a single field and then let me do different processing for each output? I've looked around and saw a few mentions of a "Fanout" but that looks to be something that happens on the writer and that's usually geospatial. I'm looking for something more like this:I see that there is an &

Hi all, I'm wondering if it is possible to preserve the order of (unexposed) attributes when they come out of the Generic port of a FeatureReader. The attributes are coming out ordered alphabetically, I want them to remain in the order they appear in the schema. My process involves a dynamic FeatureReader to grab data records, a SchemaMapper to map (some) attributes to new names, a SchemaScanner to determine the new schema and a dynamic writer to write features out in the new schema. The problem I have is that the new schema is coming out with attributes in alphabetical order, rather than in the original order (with the old attributes mapped to their new names). Is it possible to preserve the attribute order from the Generic port of a FeatureReader? Thanks!

In the same workspace, I have 2 "lines" of attributes.I have to test an attribute value in line 1 to pass an attribute value of the line 2.I tried with an Aggregator, but all the attribute values are gone just after the Aggregator.Maybe it's just for geographical data.Is there another way?Or is it just my parameters in the Aggregator not right?

I'm wanting to see how many of a list of 34 overlays intersect each of 25,000 cadastral parcels, and get attributes from any that intersect. I'm currently using the SpatialRelator transformer, to see if each of parcels intersect the 34 overlays. However the output only appears to contain the attribute information of the first of the 34 overlays found, and I'm wanting all attribute information of all intersecting overlays. I would be able to achieve what I'm after if I used 34 different SpatialRelators, so each parcel could check if it touches any of the 34 overlays, however I'm hoping for a more concise solution. I wished that the SpatialRelator could do group processing that applies to only one layer, so that it effectively runs 34 times. AreaOnAreaOverlayer isn't doing what I'm wanting, as some of the parcels overlap and entirely contained by one another, which appears to be blocking the overlayer from reading t

Dear All, I am facing a very weird issue : I want to run another workspace using a workspacerunner with a set of user parameters. Sometimes it works, or sometimes I get a UNDEFINED MACRO error. What is really strange, it is that in some FME workspaces it works very well and the workspacerunner does the job - but in another workspace a workspacerunner (that calls exactly the same script with exactly the same set of input parameters) fails with the UNDEFINED MACRO failure. Even stranger : when I copy-paste the workspacerunner that does not work in the same workspace of the workspacerunners that works, it also does not work -> so in the same workspace I have 2 workspacerunners exactly identical, one working and the other raising a UNDEFINED macro error ???!!! I've spent days trying to understand what was wrong in my script and/or parameter settings, but I end up thinking something else might be wrong... Do you have any ideas what could cause the issue

When I populate a FeatureReader with dynamically generated values containing the options I want, it works but not completely. It reads the parcel data I want, but returns no schema/attribute data:  If I manually fill in the values in the exact same reader. It produces the output I do want (I.E. the parcels and their data). This is super inconvenient since our process is based on the assumption that we will not have to populate workspace objects manually each time we run them. I feel like I am missing something fundamental here that will great enhance my understanding of FME. Please help me to understand why this behavior is happening. Any help pointing me to how I might get the automated values to generate the out

HiAfter our server was upgraded to fme flow, the jobs that run together with ESRI services (gdb, sde) do not run, and this error is given: Unable to perform any licensing related tasks. Please check your Esri ArcGIS Compatibility workspace parameter, found in Navigator -> Workspace Parameters -> Translation. This 64-bit version of FME requires ArcGIS Desktop along with 64-bit Background Geoprocessing; ArcGIS Pro; or ArcGIS Enterprise. Refer to this this article http://fme.ly/qua for more details Of course, in the previous version of the server, everything worked smoothly,And also when I run the same jobs on the server's machine, along with fme form, everything works fine.There is ArcGIS Pro with a license, and full access for all users.I would appreciate your urgent help!Thank you!

I am right now struggling to understand this issue. I have read XML several time with FME several times and never encountered this problem. I have an XML file that just lists a couple of airports with some basic information. The xml file looks like this: I read it like this: But when I read it in, this is what I get out of it: What is going wrong here?

Hi, we have several workbenches deployed to FME Server that use the ArcSDE Queirier, which is deprecated. It was reading data from an .sde and deleting the data based on a WHERE clause, and the translation was continued on the output ports of the transformer. What is a transformer that I can use in its place that meets the above requirements?

I want to replicate oracle tables with SDO_GEOM data types to a Snowflake data warehouse without any transformations before. Just a straight up replication of the complete table, including the SDO_GEOM data field. Can Safe FME do that?

I'm using FME Workbench 2022.2.24. In the window title and startup screen, it shows Workbench 2022.2, not the full version 2022.2.24. (I also have Workbench 2022.2 installed so this is confusing.) I would prefer seeing the full version number in both of these places. I haven't starting using FME Form 2023.x yet. Does anyone know if the behavior is the same?Should I post this as an Idea? It seems like a vey minor issue.

I tried to keep the same credentials to S3, but in the server side, the error points to the process doesn't have permissions to access the file. Does the server's user have to ask for reading privileges in the bucket?

I have a table with multiple rows. Each line has a number. The number is appended to the column name. After that, each line should be appended to the other. The picture shows the starting table and the target. I've researched a lot but found nothing. Does anyone know how it works?

Hi, I am trying to reduce texture resolution on a .obj model. This is what i have currently:The output at AppearanceSetter does not have any textures applied to it. I have tried connected AppearanceStyler to AppearanceSetter directly and it also does not work. So I am assuming that perhaps the way that I am setting the appearance is wrong. Images attached below shows before and afterI have attached the .fme workspace. The .obj can be found here: (due to size limit here) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Cg6wNNzllzl0M7O6ifciswnPfC

Hi there, I am connecting to Vicmap as a Service (VAAS), which is an ESRI ArcGIS Service Feature Service, which will allow me to bring in the state property data and push it straight into our SQL Database. This will replace a weekly download of MapInfo files which are pushed into SQL via automated procedures. The ESRI data is in Vicgrid GDA2020 (EPSG:7899) and I am trying to push it out to SQL as UTM55S GDA2020 (EPSG:7855). It doesn't matter which projection tool or coordinate system tool I use the data still outputs as Lat Long with an SRID of 7844. Is there a way I can do this? I thought perhaps I need to output to a different file format and then reproject that file and push into SQL, but I'd rather avoid an extra step if possible. Regards, Josh

Why might I be getting a 401 or 404 when creating a web connection to FME Server from FME Workbench?

I have a database table that contains many attributes, one of which is controlled by a domain of acceptable values. I have a list containing a unique list of these valueI want to step through this list and each time through the loop select just the records from the table that would be selected if the unique value were inserted into in query:SELECT * FROM Table WHERE AttribInQuestion = WhateverColorFor instance, "Red" the first time through the loop would return:I've setup my Reader to read the SQL table I want to query, generated a List of my unique values, and created a TestFilter.

I have a workspace where permit data is joined to GIS data through a series of joins. That data is then written into separate feature classes. The 3 datasets in order are as follows BIN Join, BBL Join, a spatial join using the Point On Area Overlayer transformer. After all of these joins happen I'm dumping any remaining unjoined records into a point feature class called Fallout Points. However all of the records from the spatial join are ending up in the Fallout Points layer. How do I exclude them (or delete them after)?

I have 1,000's of 1km asc files which are simply named 1.. 10,000 which I wish to merge in to 5km asc files, and appropriately name with the correct OS Tile Ref. I have managed to perform a spatial filter and added the OS tile ref. I now wish to filter so all 1km tiles within an identified 5km tile go forward for merging. Is there a way to automatically filter based upon the present OS tiles without creating the individual condition filters manually?  

We are trying to create geopdfs for different defined area having multiple devices , features in them. Adding labels to symbols using LabelPointReplacer Parameters and set the label scale that most of the area fits to it. But few areas are having labels that are overlapping with the symbols as shown below Is there a way to adjust the scale based on different areas.  

In some cases I like to create cumulative statistics using the StatisticsCalculator. I'm glad it's kept as a Advanced option in the StatisticsCalculator. However, it feels a bit odd that the StatisticsCalculator seems to require/expect attributes for 'Summary statistics'. I.e. if I only want to create cumulative statistics, the StatisticsCalculator shows an error (Red Cogwheel) indicating; 'Parameter 'Statistics to Calculate: ' must have a value'; Although it's possible to ignore the error and run the translation, or provide a dummy attribute to calculate regular 'summary statistics', it doesn't feel fully correct. It would be nice to also have the option to only create Cumulative Statistics. I guess that may be possible by (also) embedding the regular 'summary statistics&#39

Hello All, I have a Tester transformer that ideally produces no Failed outputs but I want to count the number of Failed outputs, even if its zero. I've tried a few things with no results. The Failed output from the tester doesn't seem to produce any data or if it does, I don't know how to access it. Thank you,Kevin
