FME Form

Hi there,I am trying to generate a survey123 report using FME. I have downloaded and added the custom Survey123ReportGeter transformer however I am using a portal connection instead of an AGOL connection: After this step i have the Tester that checks for the submit_response_body beginning with {"jobId" however the flow always fails here. I get an invalid token message in my submit_response_body:{"error":{"message":"498: Invalid token.","code":498},"success":false}I am not sure if the request URL needs to be different for portal? or if the token i am providing in my query string parameters is not being read in properly…Any help would be greatly appreciated.This is what my transformer looks like: 

Hi. I am using neighborFinder to align the points to the closest line segment. Points are connected to the Base, and lines are Candidates. I have also merged candidate Attributes. I am trying to join the Line segment from NeigborFinder with the original line dataset to get the closest line, but I am getting point geometry. is there a way to retrieve the line segment from the neighborFinder output? Thanks!

In a SDE reader, you have the option to ‘Resolve Domains’:In this example, this will take fields that have a domain, and create a new field with a suffix ‘_resolved’ and populates it with the descriptions from the coded values.I.e:The original field with the domain codes is ‘Accuracy_Spatial_Source’, while the ‘Accuracy_Spatial_Source_resolved’ are the domain descriptions.Once the codes are resolved, I no longer need the original fields, is there a simply way to remove these automatically?Sure, I can use an AttributeManager and remove them manually, however, it is not very practical or efficient when having more than 50 fields.One way to somewhat ‘cheat’ is to

I am encountering difficulties when using the SharePointOnlineConnector transformer.The flow is as follows: I have an Excel file listing a series of files to download from the BOX service. If the file is not yet downloaded locally, I download it to G:\workspace\tmp. I then modify the relative path by removing the filename: Example:/xxx/xxx/xxx.zip becomes /xxx/xxx I upload the locally downloaded file to the target SharePoint site, using the modified path as the destination. I successfully managed to upload around 700 files out of 3600 because facertains numbers of folders already exist into the sharpeoint site.However, I am now consistently getting errors such as:UPLOAD_ERROR Could not find the folder.It seems that I might need to create the subfolders first.What would be the best

Hello all, I am working on the generation of SolitaryVegetationObject with a workbench referring to https://hub.safe.com/publishers/con-terra-lab/templates/citygml-create-solitaryvegetationobject-with-implicit-representation. The conversion details could be reference to my last post below. As you could see from the FBX and CityGML file below, some texture went missing in the CityGML model. I have only one PNG as texture and my model has two parts, one is the crown (130 surfaces) and another is the trunk (2700 surfaces). My findings are that the <app:X3DMaterial> part referenced to both parts of the model separately while the <app:Parameter

Hello all, I am currently working on the conversion of FBX tree model to CityGML SolitaryVegetationObject. I have made reference to the template workflow for creating SolitaryVegetationObject (ref: https://hub.safe.com/publishers/con-terra-lab/templates/citygml-create-solitaryvegetationobject-with-implicit-representation). However, my case is slightly different from the template. First of all, what I current have, is a CSV file containing the tree information (XYZ, DBH, etc) and an FBX file containing one 3D tree model with correct transformation and dimensions (DBH). This FBX file was originally a prototype in FBX format and was transformed into a correct XYZ and DBH. Since not all my data contain crown spread and tree height, they would be estimated by scaling from the prototy

I am using the OGC WFS Reader to try and connect to my site in the TreePlotter App (cloud based app by PlanIT Geo). I have the API Key and other parameters. When I run the Reader, I get these errors (from log file). Does anyone have an idea on what could be causing this? (I followed the instructions from their website: https://support.treeplotter.com/knowledge-base/wfs/) 2025-04-28 16:32:25| 0.8| 0.0|ERROR |<ows:ExceptionReport version="2.0.0=" xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows/1.1=" xmlns:xsi="

Context : The reader file has 14 attributes ( No formulas ) and the format is Excel File. For the writer file, I am trying to leverage an existing template file (with 2 sheets - Standard & Limits) and the final output should be written to the Standard sheet of the template file. The template file has 80 attributes in total.  The value for some attributes are based on the value from the reader attributes, some attributes are hardcoded in the template itself and the remaining attributes will be populated based on the formulas from the existing sheet i.e Standard and the Limit Sheet. What is the ideal approach to achieve the result ensuring no formulas are overwritten in the template file - standard sheet in the process and that my final writer output has the exact same sheets ?

Hi,Pretty new to FME, so hopefully I have all the terminology right and I’m asking the right sort of questions. I have a feature set from Freshservice API of the available products in their asset system.It’s mostly the Latitude and OptiPlex products I need to work with so the solution can work just for them.I need to match the freshservice_product_name to a feature set that I don’t control and isn’t consistent.As you can see the tesma-description is a bit of a mess but it’s all I have to try match up the freshservice_product_name to.Can someone point me in the right track of how they would tackle this?Thanks, 

Hello everyone,I need help with polygons and multipolygons with my geometry, i read shape file if that is important1. Which transformer should i use, or how can i see if my geometry is polygon or multipolyon ?2. How can i change type from polygon to multipolygon, what should i use for that change?

Hello all, Complete FME newbie hereI need to transform the data compiled by a different department as an excel spreadsheet to look like this:From Initial structure To Final structureBasically the idea is to pair each of the projects with each of the areas in order to then join the final table to a different spatial table on the ‘AREA’ attribute, ideally without manual input into transformers. The project attribute will have new entries added to it, with corresponding counts, the areas will remain the same.Thank you.

I’m having an FME workspace that has a custom transformer that is set to parallel running.when running the workspace from FME form there is no issue, everything runs smoothly.If I want to schedule this workspace (due to lack of FME flow) using Windows task scheduler the workspace terminates because none of the cild processes run succesfully.They all crash with the message ‘Access is denied’. This is the commandline for a child process:When not running in parallel, there is no issue.anyone an idea what can cause this issue? it’s really fustrating on how to solve this?

I have a very basic workbench that includes one section reads from an SDE and writes to a hosted AGOL layer. It is set to truncate existing. The script writes all the polygons as expected but none of the attribution for the polygons comes through.  I have confirmed the attributes are correctly named. I have tried removing and re-adding the hosted writer. Weirdly, the script also writes different data to a separate hosted layer and that functions fine. Has anyone else had this happen? Any ideas on solutions? 

Hello everyone, I’m not sure, but I think I encountered a bug in FME 2025.0? Some days ago I had to change the web connections because I had to change the Google Authorisation accounts. I had to replace the Web Connections with the new IDs and the configuration looks fine. But when I try to add any web connection (be it in user parameters or in a transformer itself) it just doesn’t appear on the dropdown menu. Is this problem known? Has anyone experienced something similar?   

I can click on the desktop and add a transformer but when I double-click the title bar of the transformer, nothing happens.  I can’t click and move a transformer either.  I can edit a transformer in the left Navigator.  I can’t add connectors between transformers.Reinstalled same version (2023.1.1.1) because that’s the version we use.  Still same problem.  I can run an existing workspace but the transformers seem to be unselectable.I don't have this problem when FME Workbench is on my laptop screen and not my external monitor.  I've built dozens of workspaces on this external monitor without issue.  Problem started last week.  In Display Settings I extended the laptop display to the external monitor.>>>>It turns out if I change Display Settings to Show only on 2 and back to Extend Displays the FME workspace is fine.

Hi - I’m trying to create polygon geometry from the GeoJSON in the attached file. This is a string attribute returned from an API.I was thinking I could use a GeometryReplacer with the encoding set to GeoJSON. However when I do this the record is rejected with an ‘INVALID_PARAMETER_GEOMETRY_SOURCE’  message.I have passed the GeoJSON attribute through a JSONValidator and this doesn’t flag up any issues.Any suggestions for what I’m doing wrong, or alternative approaches would be very welcome.Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to join two Excel files that share a common column called "ID".File (A), which I consider the main file, has 7 columns. File (B) has 16 columns, but I only need one column from it, called "NON", to be added to file (A).I tried using the FeatureJoiner, but it didn’t work. I also used the AttributeKeeper to filter the data, but the result is always null.Note: The column titles in both Excel files are written in Arabic. is this could be the reason? 

I have always tried to use the databaseupdater but have always had issues with it.Why if i have a unique column with GFID values and i want to match that it gives the error.Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial Writer: Failed to write a feature of type `dbo.COGO_23' to the database. Provider error `(-2147217900) The data types text and text are incompatible in the equal to operator.'. SQL Command `UPDATE [dbo].[COGO_23] SET [GFID]=?, BLAHBLAHBLAHWHERE [GFID]=?'this is a flat mssql table with no geometry. 

I am trying to create a workflow that will update a feature layer on ArcGIS Online that is powering a dashboard but keep running into several roadblocks regarding updating the layer. The points themselves are being updated from two sources (other AGOL feature layers) and I am using FME to combine them. First they go through an attribute manager to get the schema matching (They are similar, but different attribute names and one is significantly longer because it just has more data. This longer one is the base for the "master layer"), then those two go through an Update Detector transformer with both of those being compared to the "mater" feature layer. That update detector finds which existing records have been updated (I hope) and then those updated or new records are linked to the master feature layer writer in Update mode. The problem I am running into is when I hit run, an error occurs and says "your layer is missing the ID attribute 'OBJECTID' ne

I have a list containing 93 different WFS URLs, my goal is to be able to read these in one workbench without clutter and for the workflow to handle changes in the URLs for example, a new WFS is released and gets added to the list, I want it to work without having to change or add more to the workbench.Im using FeatureReader to read the format OGC WFS (Web Feature Service) but it wont accept an attribute value as the Dataset, I mean I can put one in there put it does not know what to do with it. If I put the URL directly as the Dataset it knows exactly what to do and I can use the Feature Types to Read and select all an they end up as text separated by a space between each Feature Type. This theoretically means that I could just write a list of every Feature Type I need, use the Attribute Value as Dataset and get results. However, what I really need now is a way to get every Feature Type from the WFS List so that I can ad it in place of Feature Types to Read.

Hello ,I have four tables. Each table includes an attribute called result, which contains fields value  string string number. (Hello Community 30 ) ,all tables share a common attribute id I would like to combine the output from all four tables into a single attribute called result  String                String                    String             StringString number  String number   String number.  String no.  I would like the first string from each table to always appear above and the second string  and number written on the next line and All values should be combined into the same field.Thanks on advance 

Curious if the new version of Form, 2023.2.1.0 will support ESRI's new Date (only) or Time (only) formats? They are not appearing for me when connecting AGOL, but they appear when I connect to a FILEGEODATABASE.

Hello all, We have previously showcased the FME-QGIS Connector Plugin. We have just released the QGIS-FME Connector Algorithm Plugin. What is the difference between the two? The first being a tool can just be opened and used to process some layers on the fly and load the results into QGIS back as a temporary or physical GeoJSON file, whereas the second is used a a QGIS provider or an algorithm; in QGIS terms it is a tool that processes the data.    Think of it as having the WorkspaceRunner inside QGIS.

Hey FME Lizard!In the HTTPCaller the Multipart Upload window is only showing two rows. Would be great to see more lines!So difficult to see the line I want when I have twenty. I have to click the narrows too many times...Thanks :)

Hi,I have a very complex KML file with many folders and subfolders. I would like to save the folder name or full folder path where each placemark is located — something similar to the "FolderPath" field when converting KML to GDB in ArcGIS Pro.How can I achieve this?
