FME Form

I'm using the AttributeExploder to prepare a two line table for an HTML report, the header as 'name' column and the value line has another.  How to avoid unwanted 'values' or hide them? It adds those two:fme_geometry fme_undefinedfme_type fme_no_geom Or is there a way to filter out value before using in the HTML report transformer?

Is it possible to use FME to calculate the optimal route that covers all roads in a network?  The scenario is that the garbage truck needs to ensure that all houses have their garbage collected in the most optimal way? Has anyone done something like this - similar to a travelling sales person problem but they are going to every property?

Is it possible to create ESRI Vector Tiles in ArcGIS Online using FME. I'd like to read from a database feature class for example, and keep an ArcGIS Online Vector Tile layer up to date with period updates. I can only seem to create and update ESRI Vector Tiles in ArcGIS online from ESRI PRO or possible write a script in Python3 and use the ESRI GIS API, in which case I don't really need FME.

Hi I'm creating a DWG-file witch gets it name from the published parameter outfile. This works fine when I call the workbench directly from the desktop. But if I upload the workbench to the FME-server and then using the Data Download Service I get the default name instead of the supplied parameter.Here is an example of a http-request to the fme-server:http://localhost/fmedatadownload/SPIV/spiv2dwg.fmw?export_spiv_data_id=99&outfile=newname.dwg I first thought I somehow failed to supply a value for the outfile-parameter, but since the other parameter is working fine, I don't think that could be the problem... Regards Nils P.S I'm using FME Workbench and server 19.1 re

I have a linear input file from a survey depicting the edge of roads, that requires writing to a polygon feature class. The problem is the source data lines are not closed and very fragmented. I have tried combinations of areabuilder/linecloser/donutbuilder/geometrycoercer and neighborfinder/vertexcreators/geometrycoercer to join these lines together unsucessfully, Please see screenshot of sample data, anyone have any ideas?

Hy,i'm a Beginner in working with FME and now i have a little question to the forum.  I have to transfer a pdf-file (without a geometrical raster) into a GeoTIFF-file. Is it possible to do that and do you have any ideas how i can do that? At the Moment every time i try to transfer the files a error occurs:"GEOTIFF writer: Failed to obtain raster from feature. Only features with raster geometry are expectedA fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details" Thanks for your help

What is the best way to calculate the most efficient way for a garbage truck to travel on a road network in such a way that it covers both sides of the road. So it needs to travel each road in both directions and cul-de-sacs just once (around). Is there an example of someone having done this? The standard way calculates from point a to b but doesn't take into account street sides. Thanks

Hi,I would like to know how I can extract the Coordinate System information contained in the header of several ecw files, using as a writer a xlsx or txt file. Thanks!

I'm having the same problem as the user here, but I'm using 2020.0.3.0 (20200605 - Build 20252 - macosx). Hove can I redock my Visual Preview window after accidentally undocking it? Hovering isn't working.

I have decided to understand how to resave DGN file with tags using FME. I have dowloaded some files from this article (https://community.safe.com/s/article/writing-microstation-dgn-tags-with-fme#AdvancedExample) and ran it. It works correctly, but when I decided to change data to display into Microstation, I got NOT displayable data into DGN file. Before and after my changes into AttributeKeeper and AttributeCreator transformers:  Owner.x_offset and Owner.y_offset are created too. Before and after my changes there are some differences between output DGN files even while trying to enable display option for new tag: 

I'm trying to build a workflow as such:A user is presented with a HTML file showing a web map with features that is created by the HTMLReportGenerator. The user can click on a feature on the map displaying the tooltip which has a hyperlink as set in the Label Attribute setting in the transformer. The user can then click the hyperlink to be directed to an additional webpage or form. Is it possible to have a hyperlink in this setting? Whenever I try it, the HTML page returns with no web map at all.

I'm wondering if it's possible in FME to perform a dynamic segmentation on an LRS event with an offset to the output line geometry.  What I mean by this is I'd like the result geometry to be beside the base geometry, parallel to it and a distance away. For example, here's my base LRS geometry, going from 0 to 10 meters. Here's the event I'd like to perform the dynamic segmentation on, with a start measure of 0 and and end measure of 5. This is what I'd to have. A line going from 0 to 5 meters, located to the left of the base LRS geometry.

Hi. I have a lot of features in my workspace and want to group them based on the region, they are falling in, and then run the workspace for each region separately. How can I set up the workspace to do that automatically ??Many Thanks

I think this has crept in since the first release of FME 2018.I have a SQLCreator with a perfectly valid MS SQL query, however when I run the workspace (either in Workbench or in FME Server) it reports warnings in the log file: "Query failed possibly due to a malformed statement", which is not true. So here is the SQLCreator with the query. If I press the Run button to check syntax it reports Successful.And here is the same query in SQL Server Management Studio, it also reports successful.However if I run the workspace I always get a warning that the query failed due to being malformed.You will also notice in the l

I am needing to read a comments field and replace the double quotes with 'inches' and replace & with 'and'. I tried my hand with regular expressions, but am very new to this and it did not work (user error I am sure). I also just tried Replace Text and it doesn't seem to work either.

The problem:I have two lists which are related to each other by way of index so lets say we have the following format - List 1 (contains 4 Elements)List 2 (contains 4 Elements) The Elements in each list relate to one another so Element 0 in List 1 is directly relatable to Element 0 in List 2. Element 1 in List 1 is directly relatable to Element 1 in List 2 and so on and so forth for the rest of the Elements. What I'd like to Achieve:If any Element stored in List 1 = "foo" -- I would like to remove it as well as the related Element in List 2. I think this is easily achieved if it is possible to extract not just the attribute of the Element in the lists, but the Element Index as well. How do I do this? I am able to extract the attribute name of each Element easily by using:my_list = feature.getAttri

I am using the HTTPCaller transformer to perform a GET. How do I take the response and pull out specific attributes and their values?  For example, I pass in a list of 5 asset numbers to the HTTPCaller. It performs the GET to return all associated information for each of those assets. I need to pull out, from the response body, only the assetnum and status.

I have reviewed the Loop articles and I successfully created a custom transformer to loop and create additional group sets of data (basically I had 462 records that I needed to replicate 66 times). I now need to add an account number to each 462 group set. There is no like attribute to merge with. I can't think through how to perform this? A push would be greatly appreciated.

Hello FME'ers,Welcome to What's Up Wednesday.  If you're a sports fan like myself, you'll have a lot of Olympic activity to follow already - not least the upcoming women's football/soccer final between Canada and Sweden. So good luck to our Swedish users... but not too much!If you can tear yourself away from watching those events, here are the events taking part in the world of FME. FME Hub UploadsAs always, the start of the month brings a recap of the previous month's activity on the FME Hub. The Hub itself seems to produce a great monthly digest page automatically, but I did want to highlight what looks like a very interesting addition: a

Hello everyone!I create an app for field reports, not something very complicated.I want to produce the reports in PDF format.I used this guide:https://community.safe.com/s/article/creating-pdf-cartographic-outputMy question is for writing in Hebrew.For some reason, I can not write the text in Hebrew in PDF.This is what it looks like in workbench, the caption I want to appear as a title:And this is the output in PDF:I tried to manipulate the PDFStyler, including setting up the writing system: HebrewAnd nothing helped. 

Hi everyone. I'm using the FGDB Open API writer in 64-bit FME 2020.1 (build 20624) to write an FGDB table (no geom). I have 2 "double" type fields in the FGDB table which are set to allow NULL values (I've checked in ArcCatalog). When I run my Workspace, FME refuses to write features to the FGDB table which have NULL values for the "double" fields. I have tried ensuring the values are NULL using a NullAttributeMapper before the Writer, but it hasn't made any difference. I have also tried using the other FGDB Writer - the one that uses ArcGIS Desktop, which seems better - I just need to fix some features which have "null" instead of NULL to complete the testing. Has anyone else experienced this difference between the FGDB writers?

Is it possible to create one dynamic reader for DGN files, which will use different schemasfrom input DGN files? I do not want to lost any kind of data from next readen DGN file schemas using this reader. As usual I read DGN files and sometimes this reader can not load some data from them. I only change the path of the next DGN file to process. 

Hi, I have a workspace that downloads two different files (1 geopackage, 1 textfile), renames them and stores them in a ZIP file. Said ZIP should contain the current date in its filename. Normally I use the date/time functions in the filepath paramters to create the current date on the fly but the options in "Destination Fanout Directory" do not offer these functions. As a workaround a created a Text Parameter where the user enters the current date manually but if possible I would like to do this automatically. Can this be done somehow?

I am trying to automate a process that I currently accomplish using Autocad Map 3D, manually. That is to say create a dwg that referenced a raster and when added to Autocad will pull in the raster in the correct location. At the moment I insert a raster into Map 3D , zoom to extents and save as a dwg. This produces a dwg with the same name as the raster. I have not been able to find out what is in the dwg, so I don’t know how to do this in FME.I am presuming there would be a reference to the raster, it’s extents, scale …Does someone know what FME. Autocad attributes I would need to write ? I am also assuming there would be no geometry in the dwg, but again I don’t know. thanks for any assistance,Ian
