Why does sharepointOnlineConnector show only one web connection, when multiple are installed in the connections list?

I have had success in connecting to my corporate Sharepoint with the SharePointOnlineConnector using the web connection as set up in this HowTo: How to create a Sharepoint Web Connection (safe.com). Now I want to connect to another Tenant for which I have been granted access, but the connector only presents me with the Safe Template version for my web connection - even though I have set up and succesfully tested a new connection with a new name. I tried testing on a new machine, with no previous connections, and imported the new connection via xml then tried to add the web connection from within the transformer - same issue - the dropdown list doesn't show me the newly created connection (no matter what I call it):Can anyone advise on what needs to be done to connect from a selection of web connections for sharepoint?

Read from WMTS based on bounding box.

What I try to do is to download a raster from a WMTS to use it as a background image for a report. I do not want to download the entire service, only a part to use as background. The result I get is only working on very zoomed out tile matrices, like 04, where the resolution is not useful: On deeper levels the FeatureReader is downloading a lot of tiles, which takes a very long time.The WMTS I use is a Dutch one, in epsg:28992. I wonder if I am doing something wrong, or this is never developed / tested for this coordinate system?The point is on 147513.92, 523126.09.The WMTS is https://service.pdok.nl/hwh/luchtfotorgb/wmts/v1_0?The Layer is Actueel_orthoHRAttached the 2023 workspace.

Bin Packing Problem

Hi,I would like to merge polygons based on area up to a certain point. For example if I had 1000 polygons I would like to reduce that number to 100 keeping them as close as possible in size to one another. Does anyone know if this is possible in FME?Thanks for any help!B

switch to a new machine, where to find FME Workbanch configuration files to move over?

Hello, I need to switch to a new machine. I save my workspace files under a designated directory, which has been transferred to the new machine. I am wondering if there is any important configuration file would need to copy over (e.g. some database connection, web connections, where those info stored?) and where usually to find the file?I am using FME workbanch 2023.2.3.Thanks.

Python Exception TypeError: init() takes at most 2 arguments (4 given) Portal Feature Service writer

Increasing usability of OpenAIVisionConnector

Currently the OpenAIVisionConnector (version 6) requires an OpenAI API Key and there is no possibility to adjust the endpoint.I hoped the transformer would be adjustable, but it’s password protected…I was wondering if it is possible to offer a setting where the end user can self set an endpoint. Bigger companies have the tendency to run their own cloud, and ours is no difference here.We for instance use Azure OpenAI, but with open source AI models e.g. Llama getting more and more capable there might be a valid point to give the end user the possibility to adjust the endpoint.It might be a bit uphill, but if there would be the option to chose between an API Key, and a Bearer token; that would be awesome!What do others think about that?

Extracting coordinates from TIFF

Hi,I am trying to extract the four corner coordinates of a tif file using the RasterPropertyExtractor.What I need are the coordinates of the data extent of the image without Nodata, what I get are the coordinates of the full extent of the image. I guess somehow I have to make the existing Nodata “0” to “real NoData”. Any help is appreciated.Thanks

How Can FME Help Optimize Towing Logistics in NYC?

Hello Safe Software Community,I work for Riteway Towing INC, a leading towing company in Queens, NY. We're exploring ways to enhance our operations, particularly in managing our fleet of tow trucks and providing timely roadside assistance. Given the complexity of NYC's traffic and the high demand for 24 hour towing, we need a robust solution for real-time data integration and route optimization.Can FME help us integrate various data sources (like traffic updates, GPS data, and service requests) to streamline our dispatch processes and improve response times? Additionally, has anyone implemented FME for similar logistics and fleet management tasks? Your insights and experiences would be greatly appreciated!Thank you!Olivia Marie - Manager at Riteway Towing NYC

Unstructured data, selecting by row number

Hi,I’m attempting to create attributes from an unstructured html table.Looks like this… The table is originally a Word .doc, that I saved as a .html file so I could read it in FME. For example, I’d like to create an attribute (AttributeCreator) that selects based on row number … eg “Survey Authority” = Col1 row4or“End Date” = Col2 row8This there a way I can do this ?thanks

Commit order of two writers targeting a single table

I have two table that I am trying to keep in sync. I want a target table to match a source table. But I am trying to avoid deleting all rows from the target and reloading it. The source table is in our CIS (customer information system) Oracle database and the target is in our GIS Esri Oracle database. I am using a CRC calculator to find rows that are identical. Then I have a writer to delete rows from the target that have been updated in the source and to delete rows that no longer exist in the source. Then I have a second writer to insert rows that exist in the source but do not exist in the target or have been updated in the source. The delete writer is based on a single key column.Okay, so it is important that the delete writer commits before the the insert writer. I have tested it and the delete writer does appears to commit first. The tables are synced properly and the FME logs show the delete writer committed first. So, my question is this: Can i count on the the delete writers a

Are Cesium 3DTiles already DRACO compressed?

Hi,I currently work with the Cesium 3DTiles writer and stumpled upon some requests asking for support for the DRACO compression.I tried to do apply the compression afterwards using ‘3d-tiles-tools’ with no luck. So I took a deeper look on the b3dm Files using ‘3d-tiles-tools analyze’ and it looks to me like it’s already DRACO compressed. ‘3d-tiles-tools analyze’ gives me:{ "asset": { "generator": "FME 2022.2.5.0", "version": "2.0" }, [...]"meshes": [ { "primitives": [ { "attributes": { "_BATCHID": 4, "NORMAL": 2, "POSITION": 1, "COLOR_0": 3 }, "indices": 0, "material": 0, "mode": 4, "extensions": { "KHR_draco_mesh_compression": { "bufferView": 0, "attributes": { "_BATCHID": 3, "POSITION": 0, "NORMAL": 1, "COLOR_0": 2 } } } } ]

How to emulate the "Create Routes" tool from ArcGIS?

I have three lines coming from CAD, I have read them and I would like to use “Create Routes”, instead I have used the measure generator. However, the measurements are wrong, and I suppose because on the way the vertices of the line were drawn (in an illogical order).By using “Create Routes” I could select the coordinate priority (lower left, lower right, upper left, upper right) to tell it to start counting from that point onwards (because the coordinate priority will be different per line). Is there a way that the same can be done in FME? Thanks!

How do I loop in this situation?

Hi,I have a process that begins by going through the AttributeCreator2 transformer, but after some transformers, there is a validation. If the result is true, the features will arrive at the DateTimeConverter as shown in the image below...  I would like the process to restart at the SentinelDownloader transformer after the DateTimeConverter returns, and to consider the features with the AttributeCreator transformer only at the start of the entire process. I guess the process should work like a loop.Thanks

If so, how could I do that. The properties set is not visible in the traits or the elements object underneath the group layer. I am not sure if that is possible. But the result is visible from the FSKviewer.  Please offer me help!
