Hello, I am trying to build a process where files are being generated on a Windows Server. I am wanting to takes these files convert them from .doc to .pdf then upload them to a SharePoint location then delete the files from their original location on the Windows server. I believe I can see to the the format conversion and SharePoint upload but am really struggling to figure out how to connect to the Windows Server which requires different permissions from my normal user account to read the files in the specific folder. What Reader/Connector should I use to be able to connect to the Windows Server to gain access to the files? Thanks

Hi. I need some advice please. I have a 5x data branch at the end of WS. Each branch contains a defined attribute, see note. This attribute is part of the DepartureLeg. Each departureLeg contains a startpoint and an endpoint, two points (it can be one of the variants of five branches ( airportstartpoint, navaidendpoint... etc. ) and each departureLeg is part of a Departure. Chronologically, it goes like this. A departure contains several departureLegs and each departureLeg has two points ( airportStartpoint, navaidStartpoint, navaidEndpoint, etc. ) This is how I need to group it, but I can't. I think I have all the ids I need.

Hi, I'm struggling reading geometry from an xml file. When looking at a part of the (0.7Gb) large xml, I can see it has coordinates that reference a location I do not expect:<gml:LineString srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4258" gml:id="GEOMETRY_98ce8c1e-3676-4a60-b2a8-d7e63fe97d1d"><gml:posList srsDimension="3">51.77106873325691 5.459700336196274 49.41166353587596 3.2520665388839736 47.937498062913775 8.934025947231504 51.771400476701494 5.460105669526139 49.412014702926356 3.25205099130662 47.937476504785614 8.934700858000644 51.77170841095756 5.460502642204418 49.412240574188026 3.252040990938717 47.93746470527796 8.935070205423436 51.771910436397455 5.46090045825306 49.41302764854071 3.2520061426583493 47.9374374566226 8.935922993715176 51.77277383456701 5.462819713112839 ...</gml:posList></gml:LineString>The 3D coordinates seem to alternate, which might have something to do with a side view from the data, I guess. When I look at the data in the viewer, it loo

The documentation for the IGDS (DGN) reader states that "Design files consist of a header, followed by a series of elements. The header contains global information including the transformation equation from design units to user coordinates, as well as the dimension of the elements in the file" . My question is how do I read only the header information - coordinates and dimensions etc. I have a large number of files and I just want to the header info from each one. I know how to run the batch processing part with the workspace runner but can't figure out how to set up the reader.

I am trying to solve the application allocation issue through FME. The scenario is I have a list of applications and a list of places with limited spaces.  My initial thought is to sort applications by date, every time, send only one application to the neighbour finder and then change the place's available spaces.  The issue that annoys me is it seems like two loops running parallel but also linked together. Not sure what's the best way to design this type of loop? My loop design seems like just creating an endless circle.Any guide would be much appreciated.

Hi All, more or less the same as this query, but checking if anyone has any suggestions on a solution for downloading emails received to an account monitored by fme server? The email & content is used as a topic/trigger to start a workspace, i now need to also download a local copy of the email itself (eml,msg file). Is there a way to do this though fme?

I have a dataset with 3 attributes (REF_ID, orde, DMdrempel) and one (DHMdrempel) has formatting (colouring) applied.There is a 1 to many relation between REF_ID and orde, a 1to1 between DHMdrempel and orde (although sometimes values of DHMdrempel can be identical).I want to create a pivottabel as this one but with the formatting applied:I apply an attributepivoter with parameters set as follows: group rows by REF_ID, group colums by orde and attribute to analyze is DHMdrempel.Because of automation purposes and because I don't know the (maximal) number of 'orde'/columns, I cannot use the attributeExposer (or at least I think I can't). I therefore use a Dynamic writer to create my excel file.But I want to include the formatting (colouring) of the DHMdrempel into my pivotted table but I can't find out how to do this. Can you help me?

I have an ETL doing one thing, running SystemCaller to run a python script. This works fine in Workbench but is not working on Server even though the log shows an EXITCODE of 0. Both desktop and server are windows 64 environments, FME 2019.0.1.If we log in to the server box and call the script from cmd, it works just fine. We tried logging in as the fme user account and it ran just fine as well. Its only when running on FME Server that we are having problems. I have tried referencing the python script from a directory drive and copied to the Server box, doesnt seem to matter. Some clues. The log for the job has an exitcode of 0. When running successfully on Workbench we can see in the log where SystemCaller executes the Python and it logs everything the script does. The log on Server executes the Python and moves on to the next Transformer (no log from the python script running).The Python script being ran must import other Python scripts. When I remove these other scripts as

Hi everyone,I have a script with a reader that connects to an ArcGIS Enterprise database through a connection file.  My question is: Is the connection file information embedded in the script itself, so if I move the script to another location, that do not necessarily have access to the connection file, will it still work? Or is there a way to make sure that my script works whether it has access to the connection file or not? Thanks 🙂

Hi, I'm working with a mesh feature with around 200 vertices and edges.I saved it to my local PC in 3ds format.I guess the file size is too large than ordinary 3ds file(maybe 4~5 times bigger compared with almost the same file.)I found that 3ds writer in fme is using native fme entity rather than 3ds entity type.(similar question: https://community.safe.com/s/article/fme-creates-large-autocad-dxf-files)I couldn't find any parameters or methods to do the similar thing...Is there any way to reduce my 3ds file output? Thanks a lot. ​
