FME Form

I have an XML attribute containing metadata of a large number of tables. For each table I want to search through the metadata and extract the table name, all of its attributes, and the attribute descriptions. Each table has a varying number of attributes. Once I have the values want to print them clearly on a Word document where the table name is at the top of the page with all of the attributes listed below.

A Program I use can't export a GDB but can export a folder with shapefiles. The problem is the names of the attributes are truncated for shapefiles upon Export. I would like to Set a feature reader to pull all .shp from a folder I set as a parameter. Then I would like to batch rename attributes of the features. But different feature classes have different attributes that may or may not be truncated. When I export my GBD I need to set up the new schema somehow. Any Ideas?  

I have a dateset of polygons which I know includes some anomalies such as self-intersecting and spikes. I'd like to identify these and if possible count the number of instances of each type in a report. I have tried following the FME guide on self-intersecting polygons but it does not seem to be working as I expected on my dataset. I'm not sure if its my setting in the GeometryValidator transformer or my base data that is at fault. Any guidance would be much appreciated. I'll include some images of the types of issues I'd like to identify along with the workbench I created and some sample data:

Hi I've tried to use The Excel To PDF Writer but i have problemsafter some errors about phyton stuff i have installed pywin32 and pypiwin32  https://docs.safe.com/fme/2021.0/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Workbench/Workbench/Installing-Python-Packages.htm fme.exe python -m pip install pywin32 --target C:\\Users\\<username>\\Documents\\FME\\Plugins\\Pythonfme.exe python -m pip install pypiwin32 --target C:\\Users\\<username>\\Documents\\FME\\Plugins\\Python fme.exe python -m pip list it was successfully but again an error message  ExcelToPDFWriter_ConvertPDF (PythonFactory): Splitting bulk features into individual featuresPython Exception <ModuleNotFoundError&g

i have a feature in the sde db that is 1.7M records, the data i am trying to select has a field i want the user to select from. the 1.7M records data set does not have that field so i want to select them spatially, which i am doing now, without all 1.7M records having to be read by the workbench. 1000 or so records to select takes about an hour due to the workbench reading all the records before the spatial selection happens. is there any way to pass my buffer results from the users selection to the reader in the envelope section of the reader before all the record are read?

hello, i'm interested to know the usual process in reading/getting files from FTP caller.I did make FTP caller run, however, I don't know the next transformers to use to read the csv (not in a zip file) from the FTP server. I tried attribute splitter and list exploder, but didn't work. Can you share a sample workbench for the same case, please?Thanks!

FME Desktop v2021.1.1.0postgresql v11.13 We have an expiration date col that we default to a hard coded high value on INSERT using a trigger and function. The value of that timestamptz col is:9999-12-31 23:59:59.000 -0600 SQLCreator or SQLExecuter will not allow the selection or reference of that column. However, I can select or reference the col in DBeaver without issues. This statement produces this error in FME:select exp_ts from test_table;POSTGIS reader: An error occurred. FME will attempt to obtain more information on the error, but this may cause the translation to be terminatedPOSTGIS reader: An error occurred. Here is the information that FME was able to find on the errorPOSTGIS reader: stk::ex::bad_expected_access Workaround was to change the col to timestamp.Any ideas?      

Hello, I am trying to figure out a way to schedule an ArcGIS API for Python Script form FME environment. I want to be able to use FME environment as a replacement of Windows Scheduler. Appreciate any feedback.  Thanks  

Hello and welcome to What's Up Wednesday,Here are some stories about FME news for this week. Accelerating your FMEI've seen a few training courses recently labelled "accelerators", and obviously, the aim is to bring users up to speed with key technology in a short time. So did you know that there is an FME Accelerator training course?  If you're a long-term FME user, who's already taken several training courses, then this might not be for you. But... it would be very useful for that colleague of yours who has used FME a little bit, yet isn't aware of the full potential of FME. It's 90 minutes of pure inspiration to bring you up to speed with FME potent

Hello, i have problems to write data with the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer.The writer is not able to write the date-values into the date-type-attribute. I've did research in the internet and tried a lot of different date-formats but nothing is working.I've also created a hosted feature layer in Portal for ArcGIS to see how the dates are written when i add features. I cloned that date-format in the workspace but this also failed. Is anyone out there who successfully wrote date-data with the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer or has an approach to solve the problem? I'm using Workbench 2020.2.0.0 (20201027 - Build 20787 - WIN64). Thank you very much! Greetings!

I need something like 3*bottle = bottle;bottle;bollte. First table is what I have and second what I need. 

I am writing to a Dynamic GDB writer using an existing GDB with Domains as the Schema Source. I am resolving the domains otherwise just the values come across, but it is also creating a new attribute called "attribute_resolved" which is then being written into the feature class in the GDB. I have tried to use an attribute remover and an attribute manager to remove these attributes prior to writing, but they still get written. Strangely these attributes don't exist in the Attributes To Remove dropdown list in the Writer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have created a 3D object that used as a geometry instance and placed at a set of point coordinates. My input was a citygml exported from an original sketchup model and a shapefile file for the points. I created a final citygml file combining those two with the instanced geometries. When I upload it to cesium ion as the citygml it works perfectly fine and cesium creates the tiles for me.  Since I need the 3D Tile to use in my application, I then also tried to transform this citygml into a 3D Tile with FME. I simply used the 3D Tile writer. It works without errors and I also can upload it in Cesium ion and I don't get an error. However, when I try to use this 3D Tile in my Stories on Cesium Ion, I cannot see anything. My 3D objects do not show up.  Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be? The citygml that I created seems to be perfectly fine and usable in cesium but the 3D Tile that I create with FME does not show anything in Cesium.

Hi, I am new to FME. I would like to concatenate two columns into one by simply putting the names of the title of columns together in the text editor in attribute manager. It is always successful in 2018 but keep failing in 2022. The two columns are ordinary character type of data without any special characters like * or / etc. Thank you for the help!!!

Hello,Ourorganization has a server specifically set up to run FME desktop workbenches. Wehave made the GIS connections public and have made every effort to have thesame user that saved the workbench also be the user that is triggering thewindows task scheduler. There is an excel file that is located on anotherserver that FME can access when the workbench is run manually. However, when itis run with window task scheduler there are two errors. 2021-07-3012:01:24|  7.9| 0.0|ERROR |Excel Reader: Failed to open thedataset '\\\\vmcognos\\GIS\\COT Inter Department Meters Consumption Accts-en-us.xlsx'. Errormessage was 'Permission denied.' 2021-07-3012:01:24|  7.9| 0.0|STATS |Stored 1007 feature(s) to FME featurestore file`C:\\Users\\COTAGS~1\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\CIS_GIS_Bridge_EDITSDE_GISFCTableCreation_PROD_120104\\inspector.ffs'2021-07-3012:0

I want to delete the input data in my script with the help of the Featurereade and the hub FileDeleter , but only when all features have been beforehand wrtitten to an export map in the FeatureWriter (see image below). So I don't want featurereader and the FileDeleter already running when not yet all files have been exported . I was wondering how that can be achieved in FME desktop? In case my question is a bit vague, just let know.

I am reading data from a file geodatabase in my workspace. The data is huge and takes time to process data. I have set up a query to only filter data that ends with .2022 but the workspaces are still slow. Therefore, I intend to set up a query on a Date Modified column and a Create date column in the file geodatabase. This will filter only data modified and created within the last seven days. I can't figure out how to set up a query and filter data from the last seven days in FME. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,
