FME Form

Hi! I just want to know if this is possible before I start to dwell deeper into it.  What I have is a web-application created in ArcGis Portal. I can select points within the app using a polygon. What I need is to be able to send only the selected points to an FME-script that should run and do an analysis on the points, all from within the web-app. The point layer is published to ArcGis portal and its stored inside a PostGis database. Is this possible at all?  

I need to use a unified database connection string which contains primary and secondary/DR database. Secondary /DR database is an exact replica of primary database. When the primary database is down , it should automatically connect to secondary database. All my existing workspaces are configured considering a single database connection . With the change to include primary and secondary db connection, can you please suggest how I configure this FME with least number of changes since it has an impact on all the existing workspaces.

I am trying to read this wms-service/url using the featurereader (espg 3857): https://geoservices.knmi.nl/adaguc-server?DATASET=RADAR&SERVICE=WMS&&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=RAD_NL25_PCP_CM&WIDTH=1131&HEIGHT=489&CRS=EPSG%3A3857&BBOX=-199509.20245398767,6500000,1419509.2024539877,7200000&STYLES=radar%2Fnearest&FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&&time=2022-01-05T14%3A40%3A00Z Somehow this gives me the wrong return, what's more: If I change the date/time the result stays the same, which should not happen Using the exact same url in the httpcaller and saving it as a .png gives me the proper result (but i dont want to be saving files). Any clue what i might be doing wrong?

Hi, Is it possible to supress certain warnings in the translation log?For example, when i use a Oracle spatial reader with 2 or more geometry columns I use the parameter "Spatial Column : GEOMETRY1". In the translation log I get: Column `GEOMETRY1' of table `A_TEST' has been chosen to hold the geometry. I would like to remove such warnings in from the log.    

I am using the http-caller to upload attachments to a arcgis portal via the addAttachment in the Rest API. It works fine to upload but the image does not behave in the same way as when I make the post with postman. The attachment link in the portal downloads the image instead of showing it in the browser. This is not the case with Postman. Any help appreciated

Hey, I am trying to modify https://community.safe.com/s/article/data-distribution-fme-server-app the data distribution demo script. I am attempting to download 5 different shape files (points, polygons and lines) all with varying attributes. I have the script working and downloading with the exception of the attributes specific to each feature class. Every attribute is blown away. If I change the user attributes to automatic for the output feature class it sort of works except its merging all the attributes together and showing them in every feature class. Ideally I just want to download the 5 shapes and retain their unique attributes. Seems I can either output the shapes with no attributes or output the shapes with attributes from other feature classes merged into it. Right now im running them through their own clipper into a copy paste of the feature output which would mean doing that for every single layer i want to download. Just want to make sure theres no better way of doing this

"Feature Tables" - the buzz word heard around the 2017 FME UC, is now referred to by a more intuitive term "Bulk Mode"... The CSV format has been updated for amazing performance increases, but for what transformers and formats can I expect to see benefits from Bulk Mode? 

Hello, Is there a way to automatically detect datatime fields from a reader reading many tables (at least 2k) and convert them to a different format?

I have Workspace where shapefile has polygons they overlap so i want they should be no overlapping . lowest values are normally on outside so I start clip with the next highest values then you move from low to high 

Since our migration from FME Desktop+Server 2020 to the following versions, it is not possible to guarantee the order of execution for our readers. With the first reader and its transformer I want to download three zips. With the second reader I read those zips, extract them and export them to a database. With FME 2020 this worked fine. With FME 2021 and 2022 it seems that the reader order in the navigator pane is not recognized. Any idea? Thanks in advance!

Currently, I have a dataset which looks like this:I am wanting to produce something that looks like this:Rather than having each different activity displayed as a separate field name, I simply want to convert this into a single field name "Activity" then list the different activity types as a value on separate rows instead of the field header. I then want to apply the relevant frequency field to each activity. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

The usage notes in ProjectWiseWSGConnector states:The FeatureReader can access ProjectWise directly (without using the ProjectWiseWSGConnector), however, a local copy of the dataset will not be created. But how is this done?  Thanks in advance.

The error in log isERROR |GEOJSON writer: Transcoding the binary string '\\xFF\\xFF\\xF9\\xFF\\x02\\x00@5^:\\xBF$)A`;\\xDF\\x0F\\xCE/)A(1\\x08,\\xC1$)A`B>\\x88\\xCE/)A\\x16\\x00\\x00\\x00E\\x00x\\x00p\\x00A\\x006\\....0' to another encoding can not be doneWhat's this mean?

I have an OS mastermap GML data file. I have multiple <osgb:changeHistory> tags for one particular featureID.

Hi,This isn't so much a question as pointing out a minor issue.The WorkspaceRunner transformer (FME 2022.1.2) doesn't allow the user to select an attribute value for the value of a parameter in the workspace to be called if that parameter is in a group:

I have a dataset of parallel lines that I have buffered (150ft) and dissolved into one polygon. My question is, is there a way I can preserve the actual flow (direction) of the main buffer, and split out where the buffer separates from the main path? I want to keep the main segment as one feature, and where it splits as a separate feature. In the image below kind of explains what I am attempting to do. Segment 1 would be one solid feature, while segment 2 would be another solid feature.    

From original source data, I already have created four corner points (in red) with correct XYZ values. I just need to connect these points and create polygons at vertical plane which will vertically intersect existing gray polygon at XY plane. Any suggestion ? Thanks.

Hello There we have a set of point features we want to filter the point that has the same distance +- 5m to each other as You can see in the picture we should keep 1 ,3.5, and 7 since there are at +- 5m distance and should delete 2 ,4 and 6 If we go with a neighborhood finder with a max length 5m will work but point 2 and 4 are also located at a 5m distance, the goal is to keep only one set of points the green or the blue  

FME Desktop Version: 2022.1OS: Windows 10 Pro TempPathnameCreator is not creating the full path in file system, omitting the last part of the _pathname attribute value. Note: Basename and Extension property input values were left empty.  At run-time, _pathname returned a path C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Temp/wbrun_1663507413323_13720/fmetmp_0/1663508664728_25800_d\\tor690. However, only C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Temp/wbrun_1663507413323_13720/fmetmp_0/1663508664728_25800_d\\ directory was found created, not found the sub-folder tor690 inside. One more observation is, although it's Windows OS, _pathname attribute value was following the unix path pattern (forward-slash), except the last part (it was backward-slash).

We have two formats to connect with SQL Server : Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial (JDBC) What is the difference between them? 

When I add a feature type reader from AGOL, I get the coded values and not descriptions. How can I expose the domains on the reader for AGOL?

Does anyone know what causes the error?

Hi, I have multiple strings that are in this format 560_20170619_0900, I would like to remove all before and after the '_', leaving me with just 20170619. Is this possible using the attribute trimmer and regex?ThanksB
