FME Form

Hi,I have error while running the workbench from How to Expose Feature Attributes from KML Tags or HTML Tables – FME Support Center It failes at point Method 2: XML> 2. Fragment XML Any idea why it does not work. I have not changed any of the settings in that workbench

would like to know if FME can read annotation classes and text symbol information that are defined in the Feature Class properties (e.g., in a File Geodatabase or Enterprise Geodatabase).Specifically: Can FME access Annotation Class Names? Is it possible to read text symbol properties like font, size, color, or placement defined in the annotation feature class?    

I have a zipped File GDB that I have uploaded to AGOL using the ArcGISOnlineConnector.  The next step is for me to update the data. See 2nd screencapture in red circle, “Update Data”. Is it possible to update data in AGOL using FME? if yes, what transformer do I need to use? 

I’d like to use FME to query ArcGIS Enterprise map services (content) and, if a new service has been published that day, post a link to the new map service in Slack. Has anyone ever done this?

I need to transpose an attribute table and tried so far the StatisticsCalculator as well as the AttributePivoter, but do not get the result I need. In addition I was following the advice of Mark (@mark2atsafe​ ) in this posting at StackExchange. While the advice from mark looks 'straight' forward, I struggle with the reader-as-resource since the data are produce through analysis within the workspace where I need to transpose the attributes. After sorting my results I get the following attribute tableand what I need is a structure like  So, the attribute values from the 'label' column have the provide colum names, while 'Area_perc' has to provide the corresponding values for these columns, and everything is grouped by 'Sectorname'. How can I achieve that within FME?

I have tried to read GML file using OGC GML reader but I got some errors. I Tried different version reader still the issues coming all those files. 

Hi, I am using FME(R) 2025.0.0.0 (20250228 - Build 25208 - WIN64).I was glad to see that  with FME 2025 there is now the option to  apply Compound Conditions to the User Parameter display.However, I believe there may be a bug in the  Compound Condition Dialog settings for the User Parameters.Any type of compound condition  triggers an “Invalid Parameter” response.Applying  a Single Condition works fine.Thanks,Svea  

I have three datasets containing points which I want to bring down to one complete set.Dataset A contains most of the points but not very accurate in terms of locationDataset B contains less points but is more accurate then dataset ADataset C contains the least points but is the most accurate of all three sets. So I am looking to create something like the following: When there are three points (dataset A, B and C) within one meter of each other merge the A and B with the point from C. When there are two points, for example dataset A and C, merge the point from dataset A with the one from C. And so on.. A way of ranking I would say. Now I have tried using the NeighborhoodAggregator but I cannot specify which point I want to merge which point. I have also looked at the NeighborFinder but I cannot seem to get that working either. Is it possible to have all three datasets analyzed together? Or do I have to do two at a time?  

Currently I am testing the upgrade of FME Form 2024 (from FME form 2022) for my electrical company. When doing auto-update I found out that my stringcasechanger set on lowercase were updated to UPPERCASE. The same behaviour occurs when you update the transformer manually and choosing the default setting. It would be better if it can take over the old setting. 

I have been able to extract polylines from esri fgdb, combine the lines into one record but I cannot seem to figure out how to now recalculate all the M-measures in that line. In arcmap I would manually use the Route Measure editing tools, Set As Distance to 0 and Apply Factor of 0.00018939 to recalculate the line M-measures in miles for the line. I couldn’t seem to get the measure transformers to get the result I was looking for. This was probably user error. Thanks,Ryan 

Hello ,Is it possible to control the position of Upper left x and Upper left  y in a PDF formatter by setting their values in an attribute beforehand, so that the PDF formatter reads and uses them directly?I don’t want to keep adjusting the x and y positions directly inside the PDF page formatter every time I find that the output is not properly aligned. Do you have any tricks or suggestions to help me arrange my PDF layout more quickly?It takes a long time to design the PDF layout . Thanks in advance .

I have a SharePoint Teams Channel that has Documents; a single zip file is the only document that I update. I am using FME Form 2021. I created a workspace using the Path Reader and SharePointOnlineConnector. It uploads a file to SharePointOnline and overwrites the file already there. I run the workspace with no errors. When I go into SharePoint Online, I check the file and the Date Modified does not change. The Date Modified should say “a few seconds ago” or have a timestamp.  This is not a SharePoint List.  Is there a way to modify the timestamp in SharePoint Online so that I know the file uploaded using FME was updated (overwritten) in SharePoint Online?    

I am using FME Form 2021. I have completely re-written this post. What is the best approach to zip all Feature Classes in a File GDB without having each Feature Class show up individually in the workspace? I have 25+ Feature Classes and do not want them all to show up separately. Just want to zip up my File GDB.  Sorry about the incorrect subject header. 

Hello, I need your help. I'm looking for a workflow to transform my keys and values into a list. Here is an example:I have this table:Key Value a 1 b 2 c 3 a 4 b 5 c 6 a 7 b 8 c 9 and I wanna transform it toa b c 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9  Thank you

If we run SQLExecutor in FME workspaces in FME server 2022.2.2, then we can't connect to the Snowflake datasource. We have this problem in multiple workspaces that run on FME server and for multiple Snowflake databases/schemas. It raises this error:2023-6-29 15:14:13 | Performing query against SNOWFLAKE_NONSPATIAL dataset `snowflake_datalake_acc'2023-6-29 15:14:13 | No SNOWFLAKE_NONSPATIAL dataset name was specified (couldn't find a value for `R_1_DATASET' or `SNOWFLAKE_NONSPATIAL_DATASET')It has strange behaviour. When we load the same workspace, same input database/schema/role, same output database/schema/role, and different data table it can connect for some data tables, but it does not connect for other data tables. Is there a way to solve this? We got this problem when we switched to a new role in FME server for authorization to databases/schemas/tables in Snowflake. We already checked the database connection configuration in FME server multiple times and it is correct since it wo

I need to transform XYZ data from the currently used DHHN2016 height (EPSG:7837) to the older DHHN12 height (EPSG:7699). Unfortunately, the various transforming options don't seem to be able to do this. E. g. EsriReprojector, with "Use Vertical Transformation" checked, only lists <None> as option under "Vertical Transformation". To complicate things further, the switch to DHHN2016 did not happen directly from DHHN12, but first to DHHN92. So the transformation might need to be done with an extra step: DHHN2016 height (EPSG:7837) -> DHHN92 height (EPSG:5783) -> DHHN12 height (EPSG:7699). However there is no option for this way either.Perhaps a combination is necessary? In this case it would be 25832+7837 to 31468+7699 (or 25832+7837 -> 31468+5783 -> 31468+7699). I added the Reproject files to the install directory but that had no effect. I also don't have "PROJReprojector" available for some reason(?).Version:Data Interoperability Fixed OEM LicenseFME(R) 2024.1.2.1 (202

Hello, I have a table with 3 records per house. The table includes hundreds of houses. I want to create a new attribute called Type. There are two types only : A and B.For Type A: two values of attribute a1 per house equal the value of attribute a2 of another record of the same house.For Type B: two values of attribute a2 per house equal the value of attribute a1 of another record of the same house.How can I automatically assign the type to each record of any given house? Thx.  

Hello, I am trying to read data of different formats, controlled by a resource list. I isolate web services with a separate WFS FeatureReader, I do not have database resources and for the other resources I use a Generic FeatureReader, with the REAL_FORMAT parameter set to:<Guess format name from extension>Some resources include gml files on a web location (URL). The Generic FeatureReader usually reads them correctly, with one exception that gives an http 404 error (Not Found). I can avoid the error by choosing OGC GML (Geography Markup Language) for the REAL_FORMAT parameter. But I cannot control this from my resource list, only with a published parameter. I have tried adding an OGC GML resource reader, but this does not help. The Guess format parameter apparently does not make the right choice.Does anyone have an idea how to solve this, without adding a tester with a separate FeatureReader or using a WorkspaceRunner?I'm using FME Form 2022.2.4 (Win)Below an extract of the worksp

I'm trying to read some USFS wildland fire data. There's a link to the kml on their website:http://www.wfas.net/google-earth/wfas_nfdr.kmzWhen I use the url in the kml reader, it downloads it to a temp file location successfully (I can see it there) and it's unzipped. It's got a folder structure about 5 deep.Then I get FATAL |KML: Could not determine the root kml file of `C:\\Users\\xxx\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\FME_OGCKML_KMZ_1562607566639_14376' If I go to the temp file location and navigate down to the kml, I can read it in no problem.C:\\Users\\xxx\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\FME_OGCKML_KMZ_1562607566639_14376\\fsfiles\\office\\wfas2\\dir-obs\\wfas_nfdr.kml      

I am downloadning data by several url from different organisation webpages that I later import to tables in a Microsoft SQL server database.I want to get the information if all the attributes that I exposed for a datasorce isn’t containing any values (the value is missing).Is it a way too choose all or multiple attribute at the same time and test if they contain any values?I have data that has like 50 attributes and it is going to take a long time to manually set like a test for each of this attribute individually.

HiI work with stream processing and need to validate data in real time against a database using for example a database joiner. We have an MQ connector recieving large volumes of real time data. For best performance, I need to cache the dataset I am validating against, but the question is, what is the best way to update the cache? The data is updated in the database once per hour and there is 1.000.000 records in the table. A timewindow change can trigger cache update in Fme, but I can´t find out how to solve it, and what readers/transformers to use./Stefan *Edit, caption should be Stream processing….Cant edit.

I am going to read Data from ProjectWise. FME could read Folder trees (as attached picture) but accessing to folders is not possible. (my user name and passsword are correct)(Also I have the Bentley CONNECTION Client installed and logged in.)The IT guys said that they useAPI version 2.8.Is there any solution to solve this issue?Thanks in advanced  

I am fairly new to FME and I am trying to pass an Excel file pathname to systemCaller so I can use it in a Python script. I need to use the SystemCaller as I am using a bat file to change virtual environment and then call Python.What I am trying to do is get FME to just pass the Excel filename via a user parameter to SystemCaller using this statement"C:\temp\Excel_processing.bat" --input "$(excel_infil)"where excel_infil = “C:\temp\Excel_processing\infile.xls”But I get a “File path is incorrect” error in the logger (not in english, so the error is a translation). I have even tried to just hardcode the input filename to the statement but get the same error. I tried this:"C:\temp\Excel_processing.bat" --input “C:\temp\Excel_processing\infile.xls” If i just use the statement "C:\temp\Excel_processing.bat" in SystemCaller, then I dont have any issues and the .bat/python script works as expected but I need FME to pass the filename along. I have a bunch of echo statements in the .bat file bu

I have a file A from which I am reading the creation date through a “Directory and File Pathnames Reader”.Now I want to add the date as data in a column of file B.It should look like this:ID path_created_date 1 2025-04-04 2 2025-04-04  I tried using AttributeManager, but what I get is this:ID path_created_date <missing> 2025-04-04 1 <missing> 2 <missing>  I am very thankful for any other ideas or solutions.

I’ve been trying to process IFC data and convert it into a GDB format, however when running it will just stop processing at 19%. The workspace as worked with other IFC datasets but with a few of them it will stop at random arbitrary percentages too.Has anyone run into this issue before and is there a solution?
