Context:The overarching goal is to extract certain categories of areas from GeoPackage files and then write the output as images with the R, G and B channels containing specific grouped categories.I've gotten this all to work nicely as long as the geographical area that we collect the data from contains all of the categories that is written to each of the channels. The issue now being that when one of these categories doesn't exist in the selected area - then the connections for that color channel wont be ran and I end up with a broken output. So what would be the best way of making sure the ImageRasterizer leading into the RGB channel creation is ran regardless of input data or not?Or would I be better off doing something completely different? I am currently working with a RasterNumericCreator to try and generate blank data to be supplied when other data is missing but all I've gotten is a mess trying to get the coordinates accepted by the nodes down the line.Using this me

Hello, I am trying to generate dynamic POSGIS tables from spatialite data, however I cannot seem to force FME to create POSTGIS tables with Point / Line / Polygon geometric columns, they get forced to Geometry every time.As you can see, I have geometry set from schema definition, I have disabled creation of generic geometry columns. My features look like this:However when I look into the database, the table created looks like this:SRID is generated correctly, but geom geometry(Geometry,5514) should be geom geometry(Polygon,5514)...I have found similar question, from 7 years ago, is it possible that this has not been fixed? They are using feature writer, I am using normal writer. https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hcErSAI/featurewriter-postgis-writes-generic-geometry-column PostgreSQL 13.10 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04) 7.5.0, 64-bitFME: FME(R) 2022.0.0.2 (20220518 - Build 22343 - WIN64) 

I have a feature class within a FGDB that contains 2631 fields that are named F1 to F2631 and looking to query certain fields from this main feature class to write out to a new feature class. For example the first i'm trying to write out as a new feature class I want to write out fields F1 to F40. Attribute Manager appears to struggle to remove fields F41 to F2631 when i try to use this transformer and crashes FME on me. I've been trying to figure out a way to query the fields i plan to remove within Bulk Attribute Remover but cant figure out how to complete the query? Any suggestions ?

I have 100 neighborhood finder, in each neighborhood finder the two input are matched and umatched from the first transformation and the two output are used as inputs in the next transformation, i want to used python caller for solve this problem

I have 2 DWG files are working with FME. How to FME transform automatically Block attributes to point (Block attributes in DWG file and tags in Microstation)File 1: FME transform automatically block to point with attributesorginal file 1: File 2: its not, FME is not transform block to point automaticallyOriginal file 2:How do i get the point with the attributes of block attributes like file 1 ?By the way with these 2 files i don't use "Preserve insert points" in FME

I've gone into Manage Web Services and managed to configure the Microsoft Mail (safe.emailer) web service and it tests and authenticates without issues. However, when I add the Emailer transformer from Hub and go to select the Email Service from the Service section I only see Generic SMTP and Gmail. Is there something special I need to enable or refresh for the transformer to see my new web service? edit - have tried this in both versions of 'Form' I have installed (2022.0, 2022.1) thanks

The webhook is coming from a hosted FS on AGOL set to respond to updates and creates. There are 10 'pieces' (layerids) to the feature service and I'm only interested in triggering a workbench when the layerID=0. I've imported the JSON keys and made them available to the filter action.I've tried many different formatting methods in the 'Contains' setting but no matter what I put in there the filter always fails and logs another message that it has failed. I've got a fairly simple workbench I'm trying to trigger with the automation but since the filter fails the workbench does not run.

Hi guysi want to create a kml file with jpgs inside (they are inside a local folder) and when i click on the location jpeg pops up......i have set up my workbench like thisEmbedImages-in-KML.fmwtbut the locations and the information about the jpgs FME is writing the right way ...but what i have to do when i want the jpg to pop up?write the path in a hyperlink or a special kml writer format attribute? Greetz and thxFranco 

I have a workbench that uses the chartgenerator to create a simple chart graphic that goes into an automated daily email. image below:Blue line is the recent readings and the orange line is a limit (it looks static but it fluctuates throughout the year). I'd like to add a ten-day outlook to the orange line but the chartgenerator can't handle null values on the blue line, it throws the error:​ChartGenerator: Non-numeric input provided. Please validate that the values of the "X Attribute","Y Attribute" and "Error Attribute" (if supplied) are numeric​the htmlreportgenerator can handle the null values but when it's embedded in the email as html content the chart is not in the email, I am assuming it's being scrubbed out by outlook and am left wondering if there is a way to covert the html output to an image which can be embedded in the email. Desired output:​

This is part of larger script, where the goal is to generate multiple rotation alternatives for a series of polygons.  In this case, I have a 5-vertex closed polygon, where the midpoint of its "tip" is located in the center of the axes (0,0).  What I am trying to achieve is, after generating a series of rotations from an arbitrary point -located in the feature's upper segment (see blue point in pictures below)- to calculate the shift in coordinates the rotation caused, in order to move the whole polygon accordingly afterwards, so the "tip" midpoint of the rotated polygon is again place at the center of the axes.  Please see pictures below for better understanding : In picture one, the original position of the polygon is shown, where the midpoint of the tip is located in the center of axes. In the second picture, a clockwise rotation of 45 degrees has been applied, where the blue point has been used as an "anchor" (0,31).In the third picture, the shift

Hello,I have have two different html files coming into HTMLayouter :A costum html file bearing specifications for a drop-down menuA file with charts AND a table.Before those two html files are joined into one with the layouter the table exists. After it the table seems to be erased and only the charts appear. Three charts of this: Normally there should be a table like the table attched. 

I'm trying to buffer a line then divide it into equal distance sections. I've tried chopper but the resulting segments are not equal length and some are split awkwardly. How can I accomplish this in FME?

Hello , i would like to create a line between two attributes that has coordinates at same tableThis table has many points .Id_1 | x1 |y1|id_2|x2|y2 x1 ,y1 relates to id_1x2,y2 relates to id_2Both of them are points. How could I create a line between id_1,id_2 and add text that include the value of id_1 and add text of value of id_2FME 2021

I'm trying to write to a table in Azure SQL using a sde connection file.There is no error when running the workspace but nothing change in the table.What could be the issue? 

P.S. When I have managed to get this to work, the attributes from the various features read by the FeatureReader aren't being written.

Hi Community, I'm trying to run an existing FME 2018.0 workbench on FME 2020.2. and just received ArcObjects is: '-2147219879' error. Tried to search online but couldn't find the workaround/solution. The FME workbench reads a GDB and applies metadata based on XML file as well as an excel file. Attached the log file for reference.  Any help more than welcome 🙂

Within Sophos can exclude event id but as file locations for each transformer is different would have to keep adding them. Command used to install like below. Have excluded paths with no success. Is it possible to install transformers from command line rather than within FME application. Tried to use below command but file not found. Manual install may get round Sophos blocking .

I'm working in an Oracle database, where there are multiple duplications of features with matching geometry that shouldn't be in a table named "TDS71"."METADATASRF". There are millions of records, and I haven't found a native FME transformer that can handle this in a timely manner (Matcher, AreaOnAreaOverlayer, etc). So I'm experimenting with deleting the duplicates in SQLCreator. For now, I'm simply just trying to return all but 1 of the duplicated geometries, and will worry about deleting after I can identify them. The code below is returning many more features than expected. I'm not really sure why to be honest. For example, a feature is duplicated 6 times in the database. From the query I have currently, 15 records are returned. Does anyone have experience doing this in SQLCreator/Executor?select a.OBJECTID, a.SHAPEfrom "TDS71"."METADATASRF" a join "TDS71"."METADATASRF" bon sdo_relate(a.SHAPE, b.SHAPE, 'mask=equal') = 'TRUE'and a.OBJECTID < b.OBJECTID 

I have workspaces that allow a users to define an area of interest when looking for data. Instead of the openstreetmap coming up, now it is just a grey box. Coordinates still get passed, but the user cannot see where they are drawing their polygon.

Introduction: I am encountering an issue with an Esri ArcGIS Server Feature Service link. Over the past few days, the link has been functioning correctly; however, starting yesterday, it started throwing an error. As a newcomer to FME, I lack the necessary understanding to interpret the error message, specifically the AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name'. I would greatly appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue.Problem Description: The link causing the problem is as follows:Link: https://mapservices.weather.noaa.gov/tropical/rest/services/tropical/NHC_tropical_weather_summary/MapServer/Details: Upon accessing the aforementioned ArcGIS Server Feature Service link, I receive the following error message in Python:Python Exception <AttributeError>: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name'Request for Assistance: Since I am new to FME, I am unsure about the root cause and implications of this error. I am seeking guidance an

Hi folks, While working with some JSON data, I seem to have noticed that null values are sometimes interpreted as a literal string, instead of a true <null> value (like non-existent/empty). When I just tried to replicate this, it seems that different FME JSON transformers seem to handle null values in a different manner. E.g. when using a JSONFragmenter or a JSONFlattener, it seems that null values are indeed recognized as true <null> values (like non-existent/empty), but when using a JSONExtractor or an XMLXQueryExtractor (with a JSONiq query), it seems that null values are returned as a literal string. Of course in the latter case I could add a NullAttributeMapper transformer to change the literal string 'null' to the <null> value, but this seems like a bit of a workaround (and also, how would you then distinguish between a literal string value "null" in JSON, and the true null value) Is there something I'm missing, or is this a bit of a bug? K

PDF2TextReader does not recognize my published parameter for selecting a pdf file into the transformer. Is there any workaround this? PDF2TextReader runs when I select the pdf file directly but not when I use a parameter in selecting it.

It looks like Deployment Parameters might make some of our processes more manageable. Is it intended for use with workspace runners? Is there any documentation out yet for this new feature?
