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?

How to convert ArcGIS Online Quick Capture Latitude and Longitude coordinates to a projected X and Y coordinates?

Hi, This question is linked to a previous question I posted on the community, about the number accuracy of the Esri ASCII GRID writer of FME. Please see that question for more details and screenshot, but a quick recap of it; when I created a dummy raster with Real32 interpretation, in which an original pixel value would be '0.0250313',the rounded pixel value would become '0.025',but the Esri GRID File seems to convert to Real64 interpretation and stores the value as '0.02503128908574581',whereas I would like the rounded value '0.025' to be written to the file. I noticed that this could save up to 50% in the file size. I suppose that this item is related to the Floating Point Precision and String Formatting in FME. Now I have been investigating some options for an efficient workaround to this question. I.e. to be able to create Esri ASCII Grid files that don't write out pixel values with 16 decimal values. I came up with two methods, but I think they

In the Translation Log, it shows ArcMap 10.8.1, how do I change that to Pro 3.0.3, basically how do I move off ArcMap.

I'm trying to create a count that changes whenever it sees an empty row in a dataset. For example, I have the first 3 columns and would like to create a column similar to Test2 (see image below) that has a new count whenever there is an empty value in Test in the preceding row. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I recently upgraded my FME Server (to 2020.2.4) and the unwanted file hierarchy for FileCopy output datasets in Data Download Zip files have returned! I now have an additional folder (called FILECOPY_1) in the output zip from a Data Download Service on Server. I've updated the Writers in Desktop (2020.2.4), but the edit functionality (Publish --> Edit Register Services --> More) seems to do nothing for the structure of the zip file for FileCopy outputs anymore after publishing (the old way is outlined here: https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hM9QSAU/how-can-i-change-the-folder-structure-returned-in-the-zip-file-from-fme-servers-data-download-service). I this a known bug, and is there a fix please? Many thanks!

simple question: Why does reading this netcdf fail with any (combination of)setting(s)? It works fine in Qgis https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/data/international-comprehensive-ocean-atmosphere/v3/archive/nrt/ICOADS_R3.0.0_1750-07.nc

I have put all of my parameters into the Private panel in the Parameters Manager, but they still display in FME Server 2021.1 unless I uncheck Published. What is the value of having to do both?

Here is the background. Esri uses subtype/domain objects in its GDB implementation instead of native RDBMS' relational tables with foreign key constraints. The result is often "nu-disciplined" databases from the RDBMS standpoint. I hope to create relational tables to protect data assets by extracting all the domains in our GDB.

Is there a way to read and use AutoCAD's SHX Fonts with FME? I need to be able to read in a DWG, determine the font used and recreate a map, currently trying to use the PDF Writer, using the original AutoCAD SHX font.Using the PDFStyler I can choose / define a Windows Font but can't figure out if and how the AutoCAD Fonts can be defined.  

I currently have multiple processes set up where predefined FGDBs can be loaded into Oracle using FME (server). I need to extend this so I can load ANY FGDB and I am struggling to find a way to do this dynamically. Ideally I would split out a uniqueID and Geom to load direct into Oracle and split out the tabular data into a CSV as I have a dynamic process set up for non-spatial data already. This way I can easily join the spatial and non-spatial programmatically in Oracle. Thanks

Hello FME community, I'm trying to delete or merge some layers of DWG files and write them back as DWG files. during the transformation I lose my blockreference and the blockreference is written as a polyline. I would like to know how the blockreference can be written as a block reference. the first picture refers to properties in the source and second shows properties after transformation.   

Hi All, I'm trying to identify whether a coordinate system in DWG is set to a User Coordinate System (UCS) or a World Coordinate System (WCS). Essentially want to query this in a tester transformer. Thanks in advance for any help!

I created a Service account called svc_fme, and it has write access to a folder. The service account is what is setup for running the FME Server components except DB. Thinking same logic as Esri Service access for FME Service. I have an ETL on FME Server that is not writing to the desired location. How do I set this up?

I am getting following error while executing the workspace on FME server. However, workspace is working fine on the Desktop. Please suggest.The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147221230'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {}

I am trying to setup SSO/SAML on FME server. We already have https enabled and I am able to login using the AD credentials.We are following below documentation and for FME server setting, it says to go to Authentication services which I am unable to locate under user management. Is there anything that I am missing or anything that I have to enable ? https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/WebUI/SAML-Configuration.htm Thanks

Have a process that takes a csv, adds a few attributes, and writes to Socrata. I just updated the package to use the newest Socrata Writer, thinking the old writer was the problem. When I run it I get the error "Socrata Writer: HTTP 400 (None): Revision is of type 'update', but applying it would result in schema changes." If I make the process output a csv, I can manually upload it to socrata without any issues/errors/warnings. Same exact data. I downloaded the full existing dataset, made a new workspace that just takes the downloaded data and uses the socrata writer to replace the cloud asset. Runs no problem. I thought that would fix any schema issues since it was a replace. But I get the same problem from the main process. I have made sure all headers match, etc but am stumped on the error. The asset has historical data that I don't want to lose every time the process runs. This is really an upsert/append operation. Thanks

Can I create a FME server app that allows the user to select from a dynamic list of gdb version names. I am able to create a workbench with a reader that reads the SDE_VERSIONS table but I don't know if its possible to use the version table create a pick list as a user parameter that would allow the user to select the version name to be used down stream. Thanks,Ali

I have points and lines, I want to snap the lines to the points, both edges, ends, and sides. I tried using the snapper and also tried using the anchored snapper, but I still don't get to snap some. I have used intersection transformer, it does the major part of the snapping but creates new points at any intersection without a point. I really would love to do this snapping based on relationship (attribute)

I have seen several identity providers but SDSF is not mentioned. We have tried all available options as we know but we did not succeeded. Has anyone configured FME Server for SAML with SDSF as identity provider?

The instructions available for using PFX (step 6 in this document https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/AdminGuide/configuring_for_https.htm#Using) says to export as a Base-64 encoded X.509 (CER) file. Appears newer versions of Chrome and Edge only have following options. Which would I use instead of CER file and are there differences with importing with keytool into cacerts keystore?
