FME Form

I'm making a custom transformer and the users will select multiple choices from a published parameter list that contains a value with text that includes a parsable field name with other info. I've been working to parse that out into a comma delimited attribute, which I now have. In my reading of other questions surrounding this, it seems like this is not possible with truly dynamic transformers/workspaces, but in my case I have a known list of the names. What is the best way to expose attributes that are known in this way in a custom transformer or in general?Thanks!

Hello all. I'm trying to determine the best way to read the schema of an SDE geodatabase. My end goal is to read each table/feature class' attributes and properties (name, data type, length/precision) from a File Geodatabase and compare them to tables/feature classes from an SDE geodatabase. Most are the same but can differ slightly for a quarterly data load of 300+ tables/feature classes. I've managed to use the Schema (Any Format) Reader for the File Geodatabase, but if I use the same reader on the SDE geodatabase, it gives me an error: "An error occurred while attempting to retrieve the connection parameters from the connection file ''". It sort of looks like it can't find the connection file, even though a working .sde connection file is in the "Source Dataset" parameter, and there aren't many other parameter options available. Does anyone have thoughts on how to configure the Schema (Any Format) Reader

I have an idea of how I would write this in Python but being new to FME not quiet sure where I start here with the transformations.. For example: the Column will have an A, B, or C. If the column for any row has a "C" I want to to delete this full row. While it seems simple enough Python I'm not quite sure where to start with FME. Any help or helpful tips to point me in the right direction that would be great.

HiI have a large csv file which has a column with multiple references in, this is 1 of the records;2810X000000466,,APQ4LA805C34REUGJU,2845AP;2810X000000467,,4985,2845ER;2810X000000468,,361301760100,2845CT;2810X000000469,,DV361301760100,2845NC;2810X000000470,,APQ4LA805C34REUGJU,2845NA;2810X000189003,,BC,2845PS;2810X000267245,,E00137336,2845OA;2810X000267246,,E01027004,2845LS;2810X000267247,,E02005628,2845MS;2810X000331704,,C,284599;2810X000384460,,01/04/1993,284591 Each reference is prefixed with a comma, then the reference, comma then a colon. For example;,361301760100,2845CT; I am specifically looking to extract only the 'CT' cross reference. Can someone give me some advice on how to write a regualr expression to extract this reference using the StringSearcher in FME. please?thanks Simon Hume 

I have create web connection for ESRI AGOL, when i try to authorize i receive error "We're sorry, the page you're looking for can't be found."

I am implementing a custom reprojector plugin which needs to access a parameter or attribute that an earlier transformer has created.  I am writing the plugin using the C++ SDK, but am having difficulty seeing how to access this information from the ReprojectEngineManager class to use it. Any tips to how to do this are appreciated!

Hi, I have a CSV file with 20 spatial points & I was able to convert the points into a line (using LineBuilder) but the line which is created is having a single feature to it. I have used Chopper Transformer to cut the line. It does the job for cutting the lines but all features get same as the first one feature.How I can separate the feature as well with the lines Please Help ..!

I'm having trouble trying to push the contents of a CSV file stored in an AzureBlobStorage enviornment into a SQL DB Table. I can download the CSV file directly using the AzureBlobStorageConnector, but I'd like to be able to d it all without creating the temporary file that would normally result. I'm trying to download as an attribute which seems to work, but I can't get the data out of the resulting list as it ends up with a single column from listExploder with all the contents and the index for each element from the file in their own rows.e.g._list _element_indexcol1_name 0col2_name 1col3_name 2col1_value1 3col2_value1 4col3_value1 5col1_value2 6col2_value2 7col3_value2

Hi,I've got a text file that has dates as parameters for a data pull that I would like to add to the actual data that was pulled after it has been manipulated to have only the items we are interested in.In this case, start and end dates for the ranges. I want to add those to two columns in the data that is being updated/appended to in an EGDB.I thought maybe global variables, but they can be SO finicky. Is there another way to attach these dates to each row in the table as it is being updated/appended?Thanks,Lorinda

Is there any way to view all the existing User Groups? When I click on User Groups I can only see 5 filtered lists: Active Groups, Archived Groups, My Groups, Recently Viewed and Recently Viewed Groups. Most of the groups won't appear in any. I know there is a Coffeehouse, User Research and 2 Regional Groups for Sweden and Ireland. But there should be more than that?

Add one field with values from existing attribute table to another existing attribute table. Can any one help me with this problem.

I have workbenchs published to FME server that lets an end user upload a file (KML, SHP, DWG, TAB) that will convert to (KML, SHP, DWG, TAB) plus re-project if the output coordinate is set.If the input file has a coordinate system everything works fine, but if a uploaded file is missing a coordinate system the workbench fails and the end user doesn't know why as they can't see the error logs.This is where I had the idea to give them a txt file saying, add an Input coordinate system. I don't want to make the input coordinate system required as the end user might not know or might enter it incorrectly (I'm trying to make it idiot proof as much as possible 😀 ). Now comes my issue. How do I test for all three conditions; Has coordinates = Converts dataHas no coordinates = Txt FileHas coordinates and no coordinates = Converts data and doesn't send txt file.So far I can only do the first two. There is possibly a

Hello!Once again, I've come across an error I have never seen before and can't find online.I'm adding a new ArcGIS Online feature layer to an existing workbench, which matches points inside polygons (using the PointOnAreaOverlayer) and gives the points the project number attribute from the polygon.This works fine for all the layers inside it, but this new layer gives the following error:ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: 'updateResults' error for a feature in '<layerName>'. The error code from the server was '1000' and the message was: '24126: Point coordinates cannot be infinite or not a number (NaN).'I checked the point which was sent to the layer (using the feature caching), it shows on the map just fine and according to the attributes it's an IFMEPoint. But at the end of

Sample figure shows the 36 points within a MAIN Polygon (purple color). Each have its respective the data point value and summing up comes to 666. With the sub-polygon it crosses these points and have its own total of the data points within it. Need to take of the sum of the sub-polygon from the overall total (main polygon - 666) and get the % of each result with respect to overall total of main polygon. See table

Hi, I am trying to merge two datasets, one being the primary dataset that has Levels and the second dataset that has Zones. Each level has all the zones associated to that the level. I would like to achieve a dataset that displays this merged dataset. I have created a small sample of the actual larger dataset below. I think the solution involves some sort of list handling but I have tried out several list transformers but so far haven’t been successful, I would like the desired outcome in columns as shown above and not in rows as I think can be achieved by exploding attributes. If this cannot be achieved using transformers, I am happy to use a python script inside the pythoncaller if someone doesn’t mind sharing a script. Appreciate any advice either way.  Thanks in advance.

Hi,If I Check Geometry in the ChangeDetector does comparing Shape in the Check Attributes do anything additional or are the Shape attributes compared as part of the Check Geometry?Thanks,David

Can we extract arcpy code via fme?

I would like to know if there is any way that I can host an Fme Server application on my organization's website (for example) that is published using cPanel. What I would like to do is that through a public website, some of our clients can access a server application. I know that I can connect some other web application to the fme server using rest API or url webhooks if the server has a public IP address, which can be accessed from an external network. Can anyone enlighten me on this issue? I am just getting started in web development and these questions come to mind. Thanks

I have a workbench which has a complex custom transformer added in which a python caller is present. I wanted to check what is happening in that python caller so I used some print statements. But I cannot find those print statements in logs that is being generated. How to get the log of a custom transformer in FME Desktop 2019.

Hello everyone, I recently updated to FME 2019, since then the IFC - Cesium3DTiles conversion does not preserve geometry colors (it was working fine with FME 2018). I think the problem comes from the Deaggregator. When I inspect the IFC, colors are preserved, but they disappear right after the Deaggregator. Has someone got into the same issue ? Thankssj 

Please refer this above two snapshots for better understanding. Hello,I have 20 shapefiles with no unique attributes in them.This all shapefiles are Line features. I want to generate the output with ovelapping part with exact overlap, and lines which are not overlapping but are parallel to each other at 3 meters distance.for example see below image output seen and generated in ArcGIS for 2 shapefiles. Need to generate same result for 20 shapefile in FME. Need help or solution for this problem.
