Email Notification and Feature Layer on AGOL

Is there a way to setup a trigger in FME to send an email anytime a new record is added to the Feature Layer. I have an AGOL hosted Public Facing Application where the residents can add points and fill out some information. I would like to get an email every time a new record is added by the user.

Get network analysis working

Hi guys, I would like to run a network analysis. I red some articles about this using FME but I got stuck. Hopefully you can help me out. Input data:Polygons representing buildings Polygons representing parks. Line road networkFor each building I want to compute whether its possible to reach a park within 300m distance using the provided network. Could you give me support in the right direction?I tried to use the MeasureExtractor and NetworkCostCalculator but did not manage until now.This image shows the general idea, walking from a building via the red line to a park in green.

FeatureWriter cannot get database from attribute

I am trying to use FeatureWriter to create tables in various different PostGIS databases. I am specifying the Database Connection (host, port, database) using attributes from the schema feature but I'm getting the following error:FeatureWriter (WriterFactory): MULTI_WRITER: No dataset was specified for MULTI_WRITER_DATASET or FeatureWriter_0_DATASET or POSTGIS_DATASETMULTI_WRITER: No dataset was specified for MULTI_WRITER_DATASET or FeatureWriter_0_DATASET or POSTGIS_DATASETIf I hardcode the database connection parameter the FeatureWriter works as expected, even with host and port still using attribute values. I have used the database attribute successfully on a FeatureReader in the same workspace so can't understand why it's not working here.Any suggestions on why this might not be working or how I could get around the problem would be much appreciated. ThanksTom

Convert ALL vertice in a line/polygon into points?

Lines/polygons contain ordered data of every vertice that they are made up of. Is there an easy way to extract ALL these positions as points? (preferably while retaining attributes)

How to Convert an autocad DWG 2D floorplan into an IFC file ?

I’ve read this article : https://support.safe.com/s/article/autocad-to-ifc-conversion-example that converts a DWG plan consisting of a 3 storey layer , and all the object have a HEIGHT attribute that is used to extrude the 3D geometry from the 2D input , then the ifc file is created with all the infos in a single ifcSpace . But my need is different ,in the input , my autocad file has attributes of HEIGHT , as well as TYPE ,which would contain the type of each object (WALL , DOOR , WINDOW , Stairs , etc ).and so i want the output ifc file to be a rich file with multiple types of objects : ifcDoor , ifcWindow , ifcWall ,.. . instead of just a 3D model in an ifcSpace .

Load JSON Attributes as Parameters

I recently posted a question on the r/fme subreddit but am reposting here to see if I have better luck. I’m including the reddit post for context in the Original Post Contents section below.Since creating the post, I ended up joining the attributes I needed from the JSON to my transformation table but at the cost of decreased performance, see the Update to Original Post section below. Original Post ContentsDoes anyone know if there's a way to easily load attributes from a simple JSON file to be used as Parameters in an FME workspace (Workbench 2022.2)?I want to be able to alter the values in the JSON file and have the changes reflected in the FME Parameters, instead of having to manually set each parameter in FME by hand when I want to make a change.Here's a portion of the JSON file I'm using. I've tried using the JSONFeature Reader in combination with VariableSetter/VariableReader and MultiVariableSetter/MultiVariableReader to some degree of success. However, it's far from perfect, be

ArcSDE Writer SE_ANNO_CAD_DATA field

Hi, when I create a new feature class in an ArcSDE Geodatabase (Oracle) the field “SE_ANNO_CAD_DATA” gets created automatically. Is it possible to disable this field in the writer? I did not find anything in the documentation about this.

Reading a FileGeoDB from s3

Hi - I’m wondering if anyone has tried to read a filegeodb straight from s3 with a featurereader. The S3 connector documentation implies this might be possible - but I could not get it to work. I had to have the gdb directory local on my machine for it to work. Has anyone else run into this? It would be cool if it did work, since I don’t like having these file geodbs local. I can work around it if not.

SQLITE Reader and FeatureMerger - User Attributes behavior

When using the SQLITE3 Reader, unchecked attributes from the User Attributes tab are not exposed downstream to any transformer like AttributeManager, -Remover, -Keeper. This behavior is as expected.However when using the FeatureType downstream on the Requestor side of a FetureMerger and the conflict resolution is set to ‘Use Requestor’ , the unchecked attribute is still active behind the scene and take precedence over the attribute of the same name coming from the Supplier.It turned out that I need to keep the unwanted attribute ‘checked’ and remove it actively with an AttributeRemover to avoid the unexpected usage in the FeatureMerger.I also tried to force it by changing the workspace option Reader/Writer Options > Allow Reader Feature Type Editing, but it made no difference.Question: is this a bug or dangerously intended?

Find attributes that meet the tester requirement

HI, I have a gdb with a lot of feature classes and I need FME to search thoroug the content of each layer and give me the list of all attributes from each layer that meets certain tester requirements. I was thinking of usint Attribute Validator but the content of the gdb will be changing hence adding attributes manually to each tester is going to be very time consuming.

Hello, I have received a GEOJSON file from a data supplier, which I would like to convert into a shapefile. Unfortunately, I am not able to extract the geometries with their corresponding attributes from this file. If I use the standard reader for JSON files, I can look at all attributes in the Inspector, but I have no geometries, only an object (?). If I integrate a ListExploder after the reader, I at least have all the objects that are integrated in the file, but I only ever see the first point of the object.My question now is how I can extract both the geometries and the corresponding attributes from the file and save them in a ShapeFile or similar?I attached a small sample. Thanks a lot

Original Color from Civil 3D DWG file changed to black/white

Hi,I am converting a Civil 3D DWG file to GDB. However, once I read the DWG file, the colors appear to be changed to black and white. I attempted to use DWGStyler, but the colors are still not reverting to their original state. I've checked the Reader Parameters to ensure that "Resolve Entity Color" is selected. Could someone please assist me?1 more thing that I found is that, once I use autocad_color or fme_color in DWGStyler the values disappear. Thanks in advance

Microsoft Project Online

Hi, I am attempting to ingest Microsoft Project Online data into our on-prem MMSQL Warehouse. I have found that the only (?) way to get the api is via SharePoint: https://<xyz>.sharepoint.com/sites/ProjectWebAppTestSite/_api/ProjectData The URL Above lists endpoints for all the sub-components ie: https://<xyz>.sharepoint.com/sites/ProjectWebAppTestSite/_api/ProjectData/[en-US]/Projects I am after recommendations for "simple" one-to-one replication of this data structure in SQL via FME. The SharpointOnline component allows access to the document as an HTML file which I would have to manually parse and furthermore the site (via FME) only lists 5 Items in a document library wheras the main api endpoint via the web browser lists > 20 endpoints for data objects.The OData connector doesnt seem to work as I believe the feeds are ATOM.The HTML connector fails to authenticate as we use MFA and even if it did, this would most likely be a nightmare to parse.The PowerBI

Updating/deleting rows in a database

HiI have some rows that need to be appended to a database table and some rows which need to be deleted then replacedI am using a feature writer and can delete rows by setting the feature operation to Delete and the in Row Selection, the Columns (Im sure it used to be called math columns) is just set to the primary key of the table. That way it appears to delete all the rows. I presume this is correct.I then want to append the revised values to the table. How do I add another feature writer to do this?I presume the alternative (better method?) is to use update. If I wanted to update every field, would I just set Columns in Row Selection just to the primary key and the all other columns would update? Would this still work if some of attributes are null?Many thanks

FME Packages - Using existing database/web connections

How should we use existing database connections inside of an FME Package?Will the python api have functions which will enable the use of these connections? I was working on something where I wanted to connect to a database and I realised that it’s not possible to use the existing database connection - this is probably a good thing but kind of killed my project. Then it got me wondering if this will/should ever be a possibility? seems like exposing that kind of access to third parties poses a pretty big security risk. You could pretty well hide some malicious code which just scrapes all the host, username and password data and post it to some server. I guess direct database access via a package might never be allowed - at least not until there is the same kind of security which Oauth offers for authentication.

Generalize multipart polygons

Hi all, I have a layer with multiple polygons sharing a specific attribute (Area_ID), and they are spread with no geometry among them. Multipart polygons sharing same attribute value.Then, I would like to know the way to identify the area that could be filled considering the vertex points that can make up a border.Area between multipart polygons that need to be filled.Finally, the need is to merge all of the multipart polygons into one, without moving those multipart from the coordinates they are now, just filling the space between the polygons with the same attribute in common.Any thouhts?

Create Excel-List of layers out of GetCapabilities-Document
