FME Form

I have used SchemaMapper successfully with CAD to GIS conversions but apparently CAD to CAD is different. The output DWG has all the layers in the DestinationLayer column of the crosswalk.xls as well as the SourceLayer layers. No redefinition takes place.

I'm a bit surprised I haven't found this answered already - maybe I'm just not seeing it. When using the ArcGIS Online Feature Service writer - is it possible to define the layer ids, or layer order that will be used when creating a new feature service? I want to help ensure that the new layer ids match previous ids. Since the writer can't add new layers to an existing service, I need to delete the existing service first. Do I need to ensure the different layers are passed to the writer in the preferred order? Thanks!

Is it possible to auto assign different point fonts based on table data. ie. assign differnt points to pit, pole, electrical, water ect. I have a .tab to edit. I have some blocks from autocad, it is possible to use these? Would

Hi, is FME Server version 2022.1.2 compatible with City Works version 15.5.3? Thanks

Hell everyone, I apoligize if this has been answered already but I haven't had any luck trying to find a solution. Basically I have a URL in HTTPCaller that I need to append a value at the end of so that I can run multiple GETs. The values that I need to append are stored in an AttributeManager column. I understand that I may need to create some type of looping function that will go through the list of attributes, append the first value to the end of the URL in HTTPCaller, run the GET request, save the results, get the next value in AttributeManager, append to the end of the URL, run the request, etc.. but not sure how this could be configured in FME. Ultimately we will need to place the results of all the GET requests in one data set.

In the documentation I see that Appearances are planned for a future release. Just wondering if this is already on a timeline somewhere: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/cityjson/quick_facts_cityjson.htm @deanatsafe​ - perhaps you're the one to ask?

How can I connect MapInfo Pro 2021.1 with ArcSDE 10.8.2? It's the Universal Translator that isn't working.

I`m trying to make a strange raster, due to a specific software demanding exactly that format.  It seems to be a GeoTIFF with 1 rasterband (UINT8) that has palettes with 3 values (RGB). See below for more information. I have managed to create the 1 channel TIF with the correct value, however I struggle to add the palette, and add the correct value for each palette to each pixel. Since FME can read the file correctly, I assume it can also create such a file, however I am stuck after examining all the RasterPalette* Transformers.  Any raster-wizards out there? 

Migrating from FME 2018 - FME(R) 2018.1.0.0 (20180717 - Build 18520 - WIN64)Migrating toFME(R) 2021.1.1.0 (20210730 - Build 21619 - WIN64) We have a web portal that triggers FME workspaces and gets a response. The HTTP Caller is used to POST a request to the portal (JSON message). It works like a charm in FME 2018. Migrating the same workspace to FME 2021, the web portal can trigger the workspace but it gets no response.  We have checked the proxies etc. They all seem to be in order. Looking at the settings of the transformer, FME 2021 has two additional settings.HTTP VersionRedirect Authentication Looking at the help of 2018 - http://docs.safe.com/fme/2018.1/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Transformers/Transformers/httpcaller.htm there seems to be no mention of the default version. So, the question is what does FME 2018 use?  The error:

Hi there I have ran into this error on a script that i usually wasnt encountering this error on. and I cant quite figure out what it means.  Just as some extra context I am writing data which is stored on my local device, projecting it correctly before clipping it and uploading to an already exisiting data set by using the "Insert" and "truncate" function. I am not sure what is causing is the issue, whether it is on the FME side or AGOL side but I am not encountering this issue for other data sets. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated -Ed

Hi All,  I have been asked to create a digital sign in/out form for when contractors visit our workplace to carry out contracted works.  Currently when a contractor arrives we ask them to fill in a paper based book, just capturing name, phone number, time in and internal contact person. Then when the job is complete (or at the end of each day) they must sign out with a simple signature and time out. This allows us to keep track of who might still be in the building before we lock up at the end of each day. I can create a simple workspace that caters for capturing this information, but I am more asking for advice around best practice for setting it up in workspace and then in the FME Server.  For example, should I create one form, with a question for 'Sign in/out', or should I create two forms, for the two tasks? I might be over complicating it, but basically this is the request I have received:  

Hello FME Friends, Automation Apps Sneak PeekFME 2022.2 is coming, and with it is an important piece of new functionality in FME Server: Server Automation Apps. So me and my colleague Kezia Yu are hosting a Sneak Peek presentation next week, to unveil this new tool and to show you all how it works and why it can enhance your FME workflows.  LinkedIn doesn't let me set up the streaming link until an hour before, so just reply yes to the above invite to keep informed. Q) How are Automation Apps different from Server Apps?A) Normal Apps are set up to run a workspace. Automation Apps are set up to trigger an automation. It lets us carry out a longer process than just one workspace. Community Survey Last ChanceYou have a final chance now to give me feedback in my mini-community survey.

Hi, One FME Workbench user in my organization recently had FME Workbench 2022.2.0 (build 22765) installed on his Windows 10 (Enterprise 21H2) machine and it was working perfectly up until a few days ago. He even went on a Basic FME introduction course without any problems. But suddenly, FME Workbench won't even start up. According to Event Viewer in Windows 10, fmeworkbench.exe crashes because of an unknown error in Qt6Gui_fme.dll:  However, FME Inspector runs just fine. To our knowledge, there has been no updates or changes to Windows 10 on his machine. We also tried deleting %appdata%\\Roaming\\Safe Software\\FME\\ but it made no difference to FME Workbench. Does anyone have any other ideas we could try out?

Hello Sir / Madam, So I have a CityGML (.gml) 3D model, it has three layers - Bridge, BridgeConstructionElement and BridgeInstallation. I am just wondering is there any way that I can merge all layers into one single 3D model? As I will have thousands of models that might be divided into different layers, I need to find a way to group all the layers for each model. Then, I can analysis the data later. I tried "Deaggregator" and "MeshMerger" but it seems like it is not working.I would really appreciate if anyone can give me a hand. I have attached a sample data below. Thank you very much.

I have a dataset with a mix of 3D lines and arcs. When using the CoordinateRounder, it removes the Centerpoint Z Coordinate and changes the type from ArcByCenterpoint to ArcByCenterpointWithEnds . I do not want this.   

Wondering if anybody have encountered the following issue before. I notice that in FME2019, I can put in any file paths (even non-existent ones intended for C:\\Temp) by text editor. FME2022 seems to block it with a warning and I cannot click OK in the dialogue whenever that happens. This happens both within Transformers and with Readers/Writers. Is there’s a new setting or a toggle switch somewhere that will bypass the warning? This screenshot illustrates the problem when I’m trying to upgrade a EMailer transformer to 2022 version (from 2019).

I am using geodatabase writer and I am using test filter before the writer and my data are lines and points .I would like to change the color of lines and points before writing it as geodata base .my target :when open the geodatabase file later.it shows different colors for different lines depends on specific attribute .so will be possible to change color of lines ?

Our Athena Connections are configured using a specific workgroup name (rather than the default primary one).Can I specify the workgroup name somewhere in the connection parameters?Below is the error I receive when trying to list the named queries for this connection.```AmazonAthenaConnector: An error occurred while listing named queries: 'FMEException: 936005: AmazonAthenaConnector: The requested AWS operation returned an error: 'An error occurred (AccessDeniedException) when calling the ListNamedQueries operation: User: arn:aws:iam::<nr>:user/testing is not authorized to perform: athena:ListNamedQueries on resource: arn:aws:athena:eu-west-1:<nr>:workgroup/primary because no identity-based policy allows the athena:ListNamedQueries action''```When I try to query with a specific query it (obviously) also fails, but with a more generic error:```AmazonAthenaConnector: The bucket 'pnh-raw-data-euw1-s3-factsheets-output' does not exist or can not be access

Today i use the datetimestamper to have my date in a string, but i want to convert to an attribute Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english ! 🙂

I have been trying this for a while and have been spending too much time on this. I saw, and downloaded, Dmitri's stopsigndetector workspace and had a go at it myself. I just have no way of getting it to work at all. Sometimes it seems to get a result (which never makes any sense), but running the same workspace again will then result in a crash. the problems I encounter:Sample preparer just doesn't work at all. Rejects incomming feauture without an error.sample generator. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Sometimes gives the error 'invalid background description fie', a file the transformer generates itself..?instability: sometimes any of the 4 transformers (sample preparer, sample generator, trainer and detector) just crashes without an errorLack of documentation I tried the relative path trick, without it nothing works, but that didn't help. I downloaded Dimitri'workspace: Doesnt'work. Crashes on the samplepreparer, no error message.
