In old version we just put the scripts in C:\\apps\\FME\\Python if we need to get them in Python Caller.How do we do it in the new versionsThanks

When I export a 3D solid to dwg I get a Polyface mesh instead of a 3Dsolid.How do I get 3Dsolids? 

Is it possible to filter out a single attribute value from data. I am trying to map pit data and although I have streamlined relevant pits using buffer and clipper I still have useless pits which have the same attribute value ie. 2 pits, B pits, and C pit

The BIM360 connector is updated 17-3-2022. This update changed the RedirectURI from the "safe.autodesk-bim360docs.Autodesk BIM360 Document Management" connection settings to "https://www.FMEBIM360DocsConnector/oauth" (red box in image)Because our own BIM360 client only accepts "https://localhost/" our connection fails. Maybe we shouldn't have changed it to localhost but set FME url to the client settings on forge but we don't know. FME Warns it's users to make their own Client and not depend on the Client from FME (orange box in image) You can't make your own name for the connection settings, because the BIM360 connector from FME

FME folks, We have been using FME Server's new event driven automation with great success. Our FME server workspace creates a nice HTML report page when executed and is attached to a notification email upon successful completion of the task. We were just wondering if it is possible without much modifications to simply use the HTML report in the email body instead of using plain text? While I have read and seen some FME workbenches that uses html in creating the email body, our intention is to present the HTML report created to simply appear as the email body when sent out. Any inputs regarding this topic will be greatly appreciated. If not possible now, may be it will be a good 'new idea' for future. Best wishes,Deep Bhari 

Hello,I wonder if anyone has experience in both FME and Pentaho. I have several years experience in FME, but know nothing about Pentaho.Currently our team of Pentaho users considers the switch to FME. I have shown the possibilities and when it comes to functionality, FME seems very promising! However, Pentaho seems to be 6 times faster than FME... This might be a showstopper and we want to know whats is causing this. Does anyone have experience to get better performance writing to (or reading from) Oracle datasets? I never had the experience that FME is slow in reading/writing to Oracle, but when I see the speed of Pentaho, I was surprised of its speed.We did a test of a ETL-script that reads about 912.000 records from an Oracle Database and writes the result directly to another Oracle table. In short: SQLCreator (type Oracle) --> FeatureWriter (type Oracle). Duration in FME: 5 - 6 minutes; duration in Pentaho is about 45 seconds. We were reading and writing

Do Cached Values not work in the Tester in Workbench 2019.1? I have 'enable feature caching' on and I see the values for inspection with each step, but when I add a Tester with an attribute I don't see the option 'Cached Values' or 'Select value'.

I would like some advice on setting up a workbench that could retrieve the number of interior angles in a polygon that are classed as concave (i.e. >180 degrees). So far I have the following:run my polygon featureclass through the 'convexity filter' to obtain only concave polygons. I then use the 'Orientor' to assign the right hand rule before passing it through the 'VertexAngleCalculator'. I then use a tester to filter those angle that are negative (i.e. concave).Use 'statistics calculator grouped by original polygon UID to get the total count of features.merge these attributes with the original feature class. This works fine as long as the first/last vertex in the polygon is not a concave angle. This is because the 'VertexAngleCalculator' returns a value of '0' for the start/end vertex - and therefore cannot be classified.  Unless there is

Hi all,I have three layers district, plans and plots.When I cut the yellow polygon (plans) based on the red one (district) the plan will be 4 parts.My question is how can I make the cutting conditional if there is a plots cut the plan based on district (the right corner in the image bellow), otherwise don’t cut and according to this condition the plan will be just 2 parts.

I made a simple workflow to compare two datasets using the Change Detector and make the changes to one of those datasets using a writer. The process works fine, but it takes roughly a second per records updated. Is that a normal speed? It's alright for small numbers of changes, but this dataset can have thousands of changes from day to day, which would make the workflow run for over an hour, and that's only one dataset when we need to update dozens of them every night. I've looked at the performance tuning article and it either doesn't seem applicable or I don't know enough about the software to know how to check it. My data isn't versioned so I'm using a Transactions writer; I saw another question that had this problem but the answer was to not using the versioning writer. The writer is set to fme_db_operation (so that the updated, inserted, and deleted ports of the Change Detector will work) with Use Existing as the table handling. If ther

I have a scenario where I have a HTML report generator, it saved the report on a local disk. Once this HTML report is saved I then wish to send an email with the HTML report as an attachment, but as the Writer doesn't have an output port, I cannot trigger the emailer this way. How do I tell the emailer to run once the Writer has finished? 

Is it possible to color code coordinates based on range values ie. 4 colour coded levels low 0-500, Medium 501-1000, High 1001-1500 Very High 1500+. I am trying to color code rainfall data against above. I have attached a sample

I have some obj files of building and I want to add different locations to each obj file .please help me to get the way to do it.

I have 50+ tables i want to setup a migration jobb for between MSSQL and PG.Fastest way to set this up is using the "Generate workspace" functionalities. However using this, the table qualifier is set to dbo, default schema for MSSQL . In PG i am not using the same table qualifier name though, so I want to set to use X table qualifier for all the table to be written to PG, but it does not look like that is possible? Do i need to set it for each table manually?Same goes for table name. I want to make it lowercase and remove any special characters automatically if possible.

I have a cylinder that I created using a 3D Bufferer around a 3D Line. How can I convert this cylinder into a cuboid ? Thx. The image helps to understand what I mean.

Hi all!I have a workflow when I read and download image attachments from ArcGIS Online. I have used the AttributeFileWriter to download the image to a unique filename and it has always worked smoothley.  Now I am trying to do the same with image attachments from our ArcGISPortal and it works fine to read and download the files, but when I try to open the files it says that “It looks like we don’t support this file format.” If I go to ArcGISPortal and manually downloads the image file, it works fine. Does anyone recognize this phenomenon? Best regardsJohan 

Hello,We have been using FME Desktop for a number of years and have just recently started wit FME Server and I am not sure I fully understand how all of the pieces go together. I was working my way through the Invasive Species tutorial and got to where you pass the 'webhook.feature' from FME Server to an FME Workspace to complete the workflow. My issue is we are using FME Desktop 2021 and with the new User Parameters I cannot create a User Parameter with a '.' in it. As far as I understand the 'webhook.feature' is what I am trying to pass into the workflow but FME Server automatically created the 'webhook.' syntax while FME Desktop no longer allows for the '.' Please excuse my very basic question about user parameters but am I not trying to create a user parameter called 'webhook.feature' to grab what's coming in from FME Server or am I totally out to lunch as to how things are passed back and forth with FME Server and De

I've been trying to access some internal data which is being published from TopDesk via an OData feed. This is the first time I've tried to use odata... I'm using the OData reader, and parameters provided by the TopDesk administrator here. I have a url, a username, and password. I'm using basic authentication. After clicking the browse button beside Feeds, I get the error message "Failed to retrieve feature types."  Does anyone have suggestions on what I can do to successfully connect? Note I also get an error when trying to connect to it from Excel 2016:This sounds like a problem with the account.However, I am able to connec

i have used DGN Reader to read DGN File and it reads great but to modify the font size that read from this file , i use attribute creator and change the value in igds_text_size but i have no effect . could someone fix my problem , why i got no effect of the font size ? and is there other method that i could use to modify the Font size of text ? FME 2020 Thanks in advance

I'm trying to format a human readable date time and I want to include the seconds but nano seconds are a bit much.  As far as I can tell there is no date time flag which is just seconds without the fractional seconds so it seems like you need to remove them with a non-datetime tool. Am I missing something? Date times were created using the DateTimeNow function.

The same geotiff is placed differently in QGIS (3.22) and FME (2022). QGIS is placing it correctly, or at least as intended by the publisher, and shows a cellsize of 2x2m. FME is setting the cellspacing at 0.1x0.1m. Can somebody explain the difference in interpretation? And possibly how to fix it in FME - in general, not via georeferencer?The original file can be accessed here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b9Euqly7DPwwYzEvLNqWj1JgxAGbTBqI/view?usp=sharing/Mathias

Hi, I have 3 polygons. (Print screen; purple) Project A, Project B and Project C. The polygons overlap. In addition, I have another layer consisting of polygons. These are roads. (Print screen, gray). Now I want to assign the project name to each road object. So if a road belongs to 3 projects I want to get 3 road objects, each with a different project name. How do I do that?With a spatial relator, the road section that falls within 3 objects gets the same project name 3 times instead of 3 different project names. Clipper does not clip on al the 3 object bounderies.    

I have a huge dataset and I want to make writers based on type. Some types have only 1 samples, some have 100, and I would need to remove all empty sample-columns from all writers. There are over 100 types, so manual work is out of question. I have tried to use NullAttributeMapper and set all values to missing, but how to drop them before writer?

I have noticed this crop up in a few different workbenches since upgrading to a new patched version of data interop 2021.1.2.0 (20210903 - Build 21627 - WIN64). The only solution so far is to run/cache the workbench in sections. Have tried re-installing. Plenty of storage available in the temp directory. The fatal error occurs after saving the cache to the temp directory (but not every time): "Saving spatial index into file...""Finished saving spatial index into file...""2022-02-15 20:43:31| 56.5| 0.1|ERROR |A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details" It should say "Stored ### features(s) to FME feature store file...." instead of the error message. Anyone else encountering this?
