FME Form

I'm not able to use the the transformer AutodeskBIM360DocsConnector anymore.It keep showing a 400-Invalid redirect_uir error message.How could I solve this issue? 

I used Excel to convert from date and time to seconds using the formula datetime * 86400. For example, 24/04/2023 8:00 AM is converted to 3891484800. What would be the correct format to perform this calculation in my workspace? Thanks for the assistance.

I would like to buffer certain sides of a polygon. My polygon as in the image below and I would like to buffer them in the direction of arrows. How can I do it with FME?  

I tried to convert an RVT to CESIUM 3D Tiles in FME 2022. Coordonate set to WGS 84 .Allthough i set coordonate in the start and at the end . When i upload in cesium the coordonate still set to (0,0).IS ANYONE CAN HELP ME?

FME Desktop 2021Data Source is in LL-27 I get a lines dataset in LL-27 and points dataset in LL-27. My objective is to shows these lines and points on a Map that is in Web Mercator, EPSG:3857.  I currently use the CsmapReprojector and I have the following configuration: Source Coordinate System: LL-27Destination Coordinate System: EPSG: 3857Transformation: NAD27_to_WGS84 (Multistep) When I write the output for the lines and points to a Shapefile and place them in a Map in Web Mercator, the lines and points align and connect as expected, however, the problem is that their map positioning is slightly off from the actual Lat Long values that they should fall on.  Is there another 'Transformation' I should be using to get them properly positioned on the map (map in Web Mercator)?  

Hi,​I am very new to FME and I've run into some troubles I can't figure out how to solve. I've got a dwg file that I'm trying to write to a file gdb. The geometries vary, but the features containing text are the ones I'm having an issue with. When I try to write these I get the error: "GEODATABASE_FILE writer: An unknown exception occurred" and "Error running translation" which leaves me a bit clueless. Some features works fine, most don't I can't seem to figure out why. The writer's geometry parameter is set to geodb_annotation. Does anyone recognise this problem and know how to solve it?

I am running a workspace converting DGNs to gdb with no errors but it gets to this message: "FME API version of module 'GEODATABASE_FILE' matches current internal version (3.8 20190621)" and does not proceed anymore any ideas?

Hi all, Im trying to automate a process done in mapinfo and requires a table update.  The update in question-Hope this make sense with the censoring however this shouldn't effect the process.  Ive tried a few different ways but i never get the outcome Im looking for. Thanks.

I can read this geojson below in fme.  In this example (I & J) at the end of the string Fjson&I=800&J=422It will give me back a responds.However looking to loop through all possible values of I & JImax=1073&Jmax=571 = 612683 values. where I and J is a variable in the geojson string. xxx/geoserver/ows?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&BBOX=50.46754657502329877%2C-1.82577500000000015%2C51.03245342497670123%2C-0.76422499999999971&CRS=EPSG%3A4326&WIDTH=1073&HEIGHT=571&LAYERS=public%3Axxxxxxx&STYLES=&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&QUERY_LAYERS=public%3Asolent_currents_direction&INFO_FORMAT=application%2Fjson&I=800&J=422

Hello , i have to write my output from ArcGis sde to excel file .but I have empty fields at many columns. i would like to have only fields that have only values .so how could I remove empty fields ,?i have read many topics about that but it does not work with me .could someone provide me with template workspace to remove the empty fields .Thanks in advance FME 2021

Hello i am reading many tables from oracle non spatial tables name Table_ATable_B Table_Ci have around 30 table and I would like to get the Output from all tables when Id= 45 i am not sure ,how to write the condition in where clause to test it in all tables and In case it did not find the id in any table so I will not get any output from this table .But in case also ,no id as attribute name in any table so I get nothing better than error ,if it is possible .Fme 2021 

Hi.I'm having trouble with a workspace, that outputs a number of GeoTIFF files to a folder.I'm using a FeatureWriter to output the GeoTIFF's. The FW has no option whether to overwrite existing files.When I save the workspace as a mapping file, and run fme.exe with this mapping file, no files gets overwritten, i.e. older versions remain in the output folder.If I run it manually (i.e. the workspace in Workbench), it seems like files are getting overwritten.Is this the WAD behaviour, or is there a difference between running *.fme and *.fmw files ?How come there isn't a setting in FeatureWriter to control this ? Or is there, somewhere hidden ?Cheers.



Dear altruist, I have a datasets of soil moisture values in array system. So, for each grid cell, I have values for each day for certain years (image 1 shows the structure of array). However, for some cells we have consistently a constant value ( e.g. 1). For these cells I have to recalculate the soil moisture based on the average of neighboring cells as per the formula in the second image. I have tried with Attribute manager and conditional statement in setting values, which is not sufficient to do this job. Can anyone kindly suggest and explain how conveniently it can be done in FME? 

Hi all, Not sure if this is even the place for this question, but this arose recently in my workplace and it would be good to get some thoughts. I work in a consultancy, and use FME daily for spatial and non-spatial data analytics. Sometimes I create workbenches that are re-usable for different clients to achieve the same goal. My question is, when I am working for a client and develop a workbench on a project they are paying for, who owns that workbench? Is it me (the author), my company (who owns the FME licence), or the client (who is paying for the project)? It's worth stating that the contract we have with the client is only asking for outputs such as reports and visuals, and does not explicitly cover the workbench itself.  Any thoughts?

@takashi I have a list of Hotels. I need to check spelling is correct or not. As I am new for FME & Python, could you please help me. Thanks

I'm not sure whether this is a bug or not. I have a number parameter configured like this - However, there seems to be some sort of floating point issue when accepting a value at input -A few weeks ago this was working fine on the same machine running the same FME server version. Not sure if anyone knows what could be causing this?Thanks

I'm creating a cruciform for biodiversity monitoring and I'm having trouble setting the distances from the centre. I need to do this for 50+ areas so it would be good to get some batch processing going.The inner nodes start at 5m from the centre. From then onwards, they are set at 10m intervals. Each arm of the cruciform is 45m long. So there are five nodes on each arm resulting in a 90m total length on the x & y axis.Node labels are as follows: 5m, 15m, 25m, 35m, 45m.The problem is, the southern, eastern and western arms are showing the distances backwards i.e. 45m label starts at the inner node and the 5m label is at the outer node.The workbench works as follows:Calculate centre point of areaCreate vertices around centre point so LineBuilder can create 4 x arms of cruciform( N,S,E,W)Create points on lines using DistanceMarkerLabel points based on Counter The northern arm always seems

Hello, I am just a month or so into using this tool. I have a task that requires me to transform Geojson to the Mapbox Vector format so we can use on our mapbox tileserver - min zoom 15/18 with about 4 or so attributes. I am told Mapbox requires a uniqueId and so I am providing it in an integer format. Within this task, there are only 10 simple 'house shapes' from the GeoJson dataset.I am required to provide the unique id for each parcel within so I am perplex why 10 rows of data convert into 15 just using the following base design (omitted functional details)NOTE: Id 10 is duplicated and the smaller shape is created out of thin air.If there is a generalizer that can remove that I have not been able to find it. However, if I change my min/max zoom - remove the generalizer it works with 10 rows. Min/Max 7/15The min/max requirement is solid and they want it rendered exact.Am I over complicating please let me know. Thank you,

I have shapes that butt up against each other and I need to create labels at the edge where the two shapes meet. These shapes could contain up to a large number on incalculable edges that meet, for example the edges of state polygons. I figure my best guess is to take the shape and create a center point in the middle of the shape that is always inside the polygon. I then take the polygon and chop them so I have individual lines. Then I can take the points and compare them where they have different names and identify the point of intersection between these points along the edge lines.​I am probably overthinking but trying to figure out the best way. See simple example explanation below.​Example.​The left shape I call Shape A. The right shape I call Shape B. I have identified the centers of each shape creating points. I want to use a

I need to create lines between points. I had seen an article for similar in a different post saying a PointConnector was the way to go (Draw lines between points (safe.com)) but when I try to insert the PointConnector it puts in a LineBuilder which doesn't work. I need the end result to be something similar to the screenshot below where an individual line is drawn between every single point. How can I do this? 

I have got 8 coordinates and I wanted to extract mid-point / center point that has XYZ of EACH side of surface of 3dCube .  Please highly obliged with your help or input  

I would like to select only tables with certain strings in their table names when running a FeatureReader. So something akin to:WHERE TABLE_NAME LIKE '%searchstring%'Is this doable? And if so, how?

I have a large data set that has been read from multiple autocad drawing files. At the current stage each feature has an attribute "project_num". There are many feautres (usually lines) for each project_num. I would like to get this down to a single "centroid coordinate" (preferably center of gravity) for all of the lines from each project_num.  CentrePointReplacer will generate a single point for every feature.I tried FeatureMerger but am having problems. Both the Supplier and Requestor are set to "project_num". I have set the Feature Merge Type to geometry and checked "process Duplicate Suppliers" (build polygons) but get the same number of merged features as the input. If I use the "group processing" option, I still get the same number of merged features. My current workaround is to use the DuplicateFilter before sending it to CenterPointReplacer. I have also tried creating a point cloud f
