Here is my colour setter. I also tried GeometryColorSetter and it worked, but the coloured output is too bad. Random colours are spread so badly. @chrisatsafe​ @Hans van der Maarel​ @safesoftware safesoftware​ 

Hi, I will try to upload shapefile to geoserver over the rest api.This should be possible with the HTTPCaller! I am using the following option: - http methode: PUTUpload from data...But I get the error: I have access to the given url. So what is the problem here?Does someone has experience in uploading shapes to geoserver with fme?

Hello FME friends,Welcome to the What's Up Wednesday newsletter for October 26th, 2022.  For reasons of space, this is an extract from the full version of this newsletter, which you can find here on LinkedIn. Spatial "For Dummies"Did you know that Safe Software helped to produce an e-book on this subject? The actual title is "Spatial Data for the Enterprise for Dummies", but that was just a bit long to fit in a heading.  The book is

Block legacy authentication with Azure AD with Conditional Access How will this influence the FME Server Azure AD integration? And what can be done to fix it? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/conditional-access/block-legacy-authentication

Have a FeatureWriter to insert data into a SQL table. It ran successfully without any error. However, no data shown in the destination database table. Reviewed the log and it says Features not written (see below):Below is the Feature Writer: Both FME Desktop and Server are the same 2021 version. FeatureWriter insert works well in my other workspace. Not sure why it didn't work here.

Hello, I would like to use a FeatureReader as an entry point of my workspace.But only Reader can work. As a workaround, I use a Reader to read a dummy file (ie. an image) connected to a FeatureReader. Is it possible to choose an arbitrary transformer (ie. FeatureReader) as an entry point? Thanks!

I want to make a custom transformer with a geodatabase SDE table reader from a specific table, and some other transformers. But when i try to create it, the SDE reader is converted into an input of the custom transformer. Isn't it possible to have a fixed reader in a custom transformer?

Hi, i try to extract a map extend from arcgis. I need to create a polygone with the map extend. Not the data extend. Can you help me ?

I work for a city entity and have a federated login. I'd like to connect to ArcGIS Online in FME Data Inspector so that I can use a specific basemap. Is this possible? How can I format my credentials here?Thanks!

I have reviewed the recommended Virtual Memory settings in this post. But, my server is hosted in Azure. It has 32GB of physical memory, 4 cores, and has a dedicated 149GB drive for the pagefile that is managed by Azure. Still getting this error when reading in 5M well records from Enverus data to our SQL Server Enterprise Geodatabase (SDE). The FME version is the lates - 2022.1.3. Just upgraded from 2020.2.2. 2020.2.2 did not have this issue.  To clarify - I have NOT made the suggested settings as Azure manages the pagefile and it is substantial.

Hi All, I'm looking for the latest, or what you have found, the best workbench/template for generating (as much is possible) FGDC compliant metadata. I'll be using a template xml document. Any and all recommendations are welcome! Thanks, Jerry

There appears to be a change in message recorded in _reader_error that gets added to data coming out of the rejected port of either the SQLExecutor or SQLCreator when connecting to an Oracle DB. Previously (in 2019.2) a failed connection to the database resulted in a single error in the translation log and the following sort of text in the _reader_error attributeError connecting to Oracle database: message was `ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor'....orError connecting to Oracle database: message was `ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied'.  orAn error occurred while accessing a table result for feature type `'; message was `Execution of statement In 2021.2, I now get two errors in the log. One which contains the useful information above and a second that seems to always readError connecti

Hi, I created shape files from spatial database for the use of our corporate software using fme. And I scheduled in Task manager to run this task daily to keep the files updated. But now I needed to keep them up-to-date checking database table for every half-an-hour. I'm looking for some help to update existing shape files (similar to update detector used in case to update database table) rather than delete and create each time. your help with is greatly appreciated.

Hey there,following my issue with clothoids I now have a problem with writing geometry properly into LandXML.While the geometry is proper within FME Desktop, it gets worse as soon as it's written to LandXML.Any ideas?A sample workspace is attached. Cheers,MariaKa

Hi, I read that safe is building a way to generate custom transformers from OpenAPI description. Could anyone tell me if the plan is to make it compatible with 3.0 or only 3.1 specs?

I'm hoping this is fairly straightforward, I've searched a number of examples but I cannot quite find what I am looking for yet. 2 datasets:1dataset is a table with LRS and Milepoint (no geom)1dataset is a highway network with LRS and Beginning_Milepoint and Ending_Milepoint (polyline)ObjectiveIs to place points along the linear feature based on LRS and MP from the table (the table contains assets located on the highway network). This is often referred to as Make Route Events Layer in other software. Are there any recommended workflows to consider?  Thank you in advance!

My parameter says this.$(FME_MF_DIR)\\CF\\PNM.sdeBut I want it to say this.C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\Desktop\\CF\\PNM.sde Can this be done? This is a problem because it breaks the connection when the workbench is put in different folder.

I have a LAS dataset representing the groundsurface (also available in a point feature class) and a polyline Z feature class. Is it possible to determine where the polyline z is above the ground surface also taking into account in between the vertices?

I have two polyline features. One which is on the ground surface and one below the ground surface on the exact same location. I want to generate height lines for each Vertex generated by the differences in Z-coordinates of the corresponding vertices of the 2 polyline features.

Hello,I try to create polygon from osm like cemeteries. For now, I'm stuck after the XML Fragmenter and Vertex Creator. I don't know how to build lines between points because there isn't an unique value. I didn't find anything on the FME community so I post this question. If someone could give me an orientation, if would be very nice !Thank you !  

Hello There I need to remove the duplicate point along each segment,the goal is in every 5 m of the segment we need only one point, we should start with the recent point based on the date, then the missing segment will be completed by the next date ...etcthe idea is to have one point in every 5m of the segment line  I have attached a sample of the data  

I was thinking I can use an attribute filter to filter the different asset types and subsequently use a 3Dforcer to lay the different polylines on their correct depth. As an example I used the following parameters in the 3Dforcer for 1 attribute of the field asset type:  Elevation: @ZValue()-1Preserve Z-values: No The result was as follows:1 polyline features has 3 vertices:Before translation:  1stvertex Z: 0,62ndvertex Z: 0,83th vertex Z: 1,0 After translation: 1stvertex Z: -0,22ndvertex Z: -0,23th vertex Z: -0,2 What I would like to have: 1stvertex Z: -0,42ndvertex Z: -0,23th vertex Z: 0 This translation provides a constant Zvalue based on some average of mutliple vertices. I want it to take intoaccount each individual Z and then substract the ammount sp

Hi, I would like to crop image according to shapefile boundaries, similar to arcgis extract by mask. Currently I have this result after clipper transformer, but is bad for me.   Thank´s
