FME Form

Hi, I'm having a customer transformer with a group by linked on an attribute:Every feature that enters the Custom transformer (it has 3 input ports) has a value for that attribute.I'm under the assumption that the custom transformer operates as follows:reads all features, process features with value A first, next switches to value B and as last value C.However in my workspace, the custom transformer processes all features in 1 go, regardless of the group settings:(I've added a logger in the beginning to indicate on which group it's working and it's logging all 3 a few seconds apart, while the CT needs to work a few minutes on group 1 and again a few minutes on g

Hello,  Just want to ask what is the specific condition in order for Create as Needed in the table handling be triggered? Thank you.

Hi I am looking for information on how to appropriately use the FME Command in a python loop using subprocess.popen to call the argument. I am struggling to find info on how to achieve this. I am getting syntax warnings in my command when I use subproces.popen. But if I past directly to the cmd prompt I dont have issues. So Im missing something. Any help is appreciated. Please ignore all my comments :P

Hello,I'm converting a ESRI gdb (of 21 layers) to shp with FME Desktop. Seventeen of the layers contain map objects - they're all good. But four layers do not contain map objects (2 x points, 2 x polys). For a very good reason, that I won't go into detail about here, I need to force at least one map object into those four empty shp datasets (a point into the point layers, a polygon into the polygon layers). The point can be in a random location, or one I specify. The polygons can be absolutely tiny. The values can be null. Is this possible within a FME workflow?

Whenever I run data to the ESRI feature service writer (update), it updates the data with the relevant fields correctly but for some reason geometries are now not appearing when viewing the data in ARCGIS. Has this happened to anyone else before? Screenshot below

Hi everyone, I'm testing the B360 Connector. I can log in okay, but when I click on Hub, it searches for a while but then finds nothing. There are definitely projects in our B360 instance. See screenshot below, can anyone help? Cheers.

Morning,I have a group of LiDAR point clouds which were classified in several classes.Unfortunately the client only wants the point clouds classified into 4 groups.How can I regroup several classes into the 4 classes I need? Example (class 1-2-3-4-5 to become class 1, class 6-7-8 to become class 2, 9-10-11 to become 3 etc etc)

Is there still fmeobjects package supporting python 2.7 in FME 2022.2?I need to run an FME workspace in ArcMap, which uses python 2.7 and realized there is no fmeobjects for Python 2 in the FME installation folder. Is there an alternative way to do the job?

FME 2022 Workbench is showing 'Error in Translation' after a successful Translation (See Screenshot). The Data Inspector window doesn't open after the translation. Is there a bug in FME 2022 causing this?What can I do to work around this issue?The log file is available on request.

Hi,  I am new to FME. I am having below error with one our jobs. I am not sure what is causing the issue because it is intermittent.Today it will throw an error the next day it is okay. *I have remove the structure of my table* 7239 Processing attribute 2 for LEAN or LEAN_AND_MEAN usage7240 Processed 2 elements with mode CLASSIC7241 Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial Writer: Query failed, possibly due to a malformed statement.

I have two separate Route Feature Types and a bunch of Point and Line events. The Route features share a common alignment (on top of each other), but they have different measure values. For illustration purposes, think of them sort of like different units stored in the geometry measures, but without any sort of equation to be able to easily convert between the units. My plan was to overlay the Route sources to get a more granular set of lines with nodes wherever a node exists in either source, and with multiple measures named by the source it came from. Once I have that combined geometry, the event translation should be as simple as generating the dynamic segments based on the first route, dissolve the lines and read the second route measures from the feature, to get my translated event. In the example below, I rename the measures for each source before sending them in to the LineOnLineOverlayer but the output lines only have 1 of the 2 source measures. I also tried Intersector, but

Hi Community,I'm trying to convert MBTiles Raster format SQLite into ESRI File Geodatabase Raster. I have run the FME workbench from the above formats (default values) and it has created an output correctly, However the MBTiles contains much greater coverage that the resulting ESRI File. Am I missing some sort of parameter to ensure that all coverage is created rather than just a section of it? RegardsNZ

I've created a workbench in FME Database Edition 2022.1.3 that reads the existing metadata of a feature class in an ArcGIS Enterprise Geodatabase (SQL Server), and updates certain components of the metadata based on a table in another database where the feature class name matches the "Name" field in that table. This works for one feature class in the GDB at a time. Is there a way to iterate over all feature classes in the GDB and run the workbench against each one, one at a time? I've tried adding multiple feature classes as a Single merged feature type, and as individual feature types, and it is not updating the metadata as expected. It seems to update the metadata to the same values for all feature classes. thanks

I want to make sure objects resulting from the AreaOnAreaOverlayer are wider than 5 cm. For this I use a Tolerance value of 5 cm. In some situations however, it moves the border of objects more than that value (around 20 cm) where I would expect it would just create an object of 20 cm wide. I'm using FME 2021.1 build 21619. See the attached template for the data, the situation occurs near the red arrow:

I'd like to create a WB that is capable of QR code batch production to a PDF suitable for printing. The input would be a spreadsheet containing the QR codes (text) in a column. I have the QR Code Generator but not sure how to enable it to write multiple codes. Does anyone have experience with this or recommend a B build?

I have a workbench that reads features from a table from Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial and writes (Feature Operation: Update) into the same table. I have read and write permissions, reading is working fine but writing gets the following error message:Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial Writer: Connection failed. <connectionstring>. Provider error `(-2147467259) Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53]. ' Failed to open writer Failed to open writer f_22(CreationFactory): Failed to open writer I've tried several things, but none of them is working.

We have a unique number 0 and 00 to identify paying customer.I set (0 and 00) in the AttributeFilter but both values end up on either 0 or 00 depending on wich one in the list comes first.What am i missing here? or should i set up a tester instead for each number or text value? /Tim

Hello! I am using GeometryReplacer to convert a CSV file with a column containing WKT geometry. The column in question has the name "GEOMETRI, LINJE" and contains a linestring. When using GeometryReplacer, the result is a point with a point that seems to be the centre point of the coordinates of the linestring. As an example, the string LINESTRING (280696.375713613 6653063.17617913, 280698.536236071 6653059.93539544, 280707.427616957 6653067.91270913, 280704.353027305 6653070.5718137, 280696.12642256 6653063.17617913) converts to a point with coordinates 280701.671, 6653065.356, neither of which appears in the original linestring string. The coordinate system used is ETRS89.UTM-33N, which I set using a CoordinateSystemSetter before the GeometryReplacer. All of the LINESTRING () WKT-geometries become points. Does anyone have any insight as to why this happens and what I can do to make sure that GeometryReplacer produce

 IMX Writer: Detected in invalid table names 'RoofSurface'. This writer expects only specific table names. Please add a new IMX writer to see the valid table names I guess it has something to do with the original tables from my citygml. but how to tackle this issue? 

I would like to combine lines on the attributes in column A OR B OR C and so on. The "combine on attributes" is an AND condition. What would be the cleanest workaround to achieve this?

When I run the tool the "Band 0" values are staying the same after the reprojection transformer is run, any tips to get the new values for "Band 0"?

Hello,After migrating to FME 2022.2 (desktop and server), I get errors on each workspace that uses Oracle Spatial FeatureReader with a spatial filter:I tried these workspaces on FME 2022.0 and everything works fine...I don't really feel like reinstalling another version of FME Server, so any solutions/workarounds are welcome :)(Using spatial SQL queries instead of FeatureReader is not an option)

I have a workbench that uses the FileCopy writer to move and rename an uploaded excel sheet, this works well when testing through desktop but when run via FME Server (the file is uploaded into a parameter) the following Warning is thrown and the file doesn't get moved; 2022-12-8 13:48:54 | File Copy Writer: Ignoring the destination filename 'DummyFile.xlsx' because the source dataset '""C:\\ProgramData\\Safe Software\\FME Server\\resources\\system\\temp\\upload\\Data Updates\\Geo-CustomerServices-TradeEffluentImportToSQL.fmw\\dbryant\\DummyFile.xlsx""' was not a file. Destination file names are only used when the source dataset is a file Is this a known limitation of FileCopy? I could use a SystemCaller and/or Python to get the same result but equally feel that this should work.

I see how I can create a geometry using a creator where I can specify the geometry parameters. For example, creating an Clothoid by specifying Start X, Start Y, Direction etc. But these are all values that must be hand entered. How can pass these values into an "inline" Creator to set the geometries accordingly? I see 2DArcReplacer etc but not one for Clothoids. Is there a GeometryReplacer of sorts that would let you specify the type of geometry desired and which incoming attributes to assign to the relevant Geometry Parameters?

I need to convert a csv file into a shapefile in a .Net 6 windows application. I am looking for some assemblies or source code that does to use in the application. Does FSE provide such assemblies or have source code that can use the does this?
