FME Form

I am using the FME objects python API including the FMEUniversalReader. fmeobjects.FMEUniversalReader — Python FME API FME 2024.1 b24615 documentation (safe.com)In the documentation for this API it says to pass “Reader’s type mneumonic as found in the FME Reference Manual Part II” but the reference manual isn’t linked.It isn’t in the admin guide: FME Desktop Administrator's Guide (safe.com)And Safe Docs just link back to the python API Search (safe.com) which

I have a multiple choice question at first. Depending on the checked values I want to ask some follow-up questions. I only want these follow-up questions visible when the user checked that topic in the multiple choice question.Since I cannot use a condition on visibility like ‘contains’, I tried this by first using a scripted parameter.If the value is checked, return 1, else return 0.I then use this scripted parameter in the conditional visibility of the follow-up question(s).But.. this does not seem to work and affect the visibility.If I run the script, I can see the scripted parameter does work, it returns a 1 if needed and a 0 otherwise.But it does nothing for the visibility of the follow-up questions.Can this work? Or are the scripted parameters only calculated afterwards/during runtime and therefore cannot be used in conditional visibility of other parameters?I'm also seeing some new possibilties in 2024.1 (currentl

I have a glut of features of multiple types coming in from a handful of .ifc files. I am attempting to write a transformer as a proof of concept that will allow me to filter the features (currently 174000+) to different writers based on a small difference within their source filenames. Basically what I want to know is if it is possible to use the text editor to create an “if filename contains text (abc)” filter. If not, what would be the best way to filter for something like this.  

Something simple but can’t get it to work. I have a Field1 with two records. One record contains numbers as 205202021356 and the other record does not contain numbers as DAKLL. I have an attributeManager where I want to assign a value for the records that do not contain numbers and keep the value the same for the records that are numeric. In the AttribteManager transformer, this is what I have under the AttributeValue field 2 possible values:So if Field1 is not numeric, I want to assign NAIf it is numeric (contains numbers) then leave it with its original valueSample below are the records. I want to assign NA to record 2 and keep record 1 as is.Field1

Hi,I would like to convert an xlsm into xls so that I can then do a task chain. Is there a transformer or several that can help me ?Thank you for your help

I need to use the PythonCaller because the area on area overlayer doesn’t work with my input featureset. I want each polygon in featureset A to overlay against all the polygons in Featureset B (which does not self intersect) and then drop overlays with NA values in specific columns. I found documentation for the fmeobjects.PythonCaller, but the documentation doesn’t include how to actually run the transformer.fmeobjects.FMETransformer — Python FME API FME 2024.1 b24615 documentation (safe.com)i.e. what do I do with f = fmeobjects.FMETransformer after I’ve set the attributes?Additionally, it’s unclear what the parameters are for this object, as there is no function definition returned to define what is required for each transformer type.

Is there a transformer that can create classes based on natural breaks, quantiles or equal Intervals?

Hi.I have a workbench equipped with several runners. I want to send myself an email upon completion of the workbench, detailing the duration each runner took. I implemented a DateTimeStamper at the Succeeded port for each workbench and attempted to merge this with the creation instance, but it failed to function as expected.I would like the result to include the duration each workbench ran and the total time upon process completion.Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi, I have a MySQL database which I'm using the non-spatial MariaDB reader to get access to. Most fields are coming into FME Desktop ok, with the exception of a unique identifier field. The source data has a field called rg_key_id which is defined as char(21) in MySQL. A typical value in this field would be 'RG 022000001' But, when read FME is setting the datatype as fme_binary and I'm seeing '52472020303232303030303031' as the representation of 'RG 022000001' Can someone please point me at a resource, or help me understand, how I can either honour the source datatype or change the FME datatype so that it's no longer fme_binary. Here is the Feature Information showing the fme_binary encoding. Many thanks Brendon

While attempting to set up a web connection to cityworks via FME/ESRI’s data interoperability externsion, the connection continues to result in “Unable to authenticate using the specified connection information”.  We are on CityWorks Server 15.4.2 so the authorization token is set to be passed by query string.  Any other changes or tips that we should try?

I have a complex workflow where a specific attributes, i.e. “PositionID”, which are referenced across multiple transformers. I need to rename these attributes to another name throughout the entire workflow. Manually opening each transformer to change the reference would be very time-consuming.Is there a way to quickly rename this attribute in all transformers without having to edit each one individually? Any tips or tools within FME that can help streamline this process would be greatly appreciated.Alternatively, next time I create a project can I set these up as parameters or variables and reference them that way and hence change them more easily? Thanks

Hello,I am trying to start a workbench that uses data from my enterprise geodatabase. I have a feature class called WaterDevices and it has attachments. However, the FeatureReader does not read the relationship class. I attached an example where does read the relationship class in a different enterprise geodatabase for sewer.I’m not sure where to start troubleshooting this. Any advice would be appreciated. I’m on FME Form 2024.0.3.0.  

Hi All -I have been trying to convert a GeoTiff (also converted to ESRI Raster to try it too) and write to ESRI polygon feature class. I have used the steps below….. However, the translation fails and I get the following error:“Cannot write a non-point feature to a point feature class”There are no point features at play in any steps. RasterCellCoercer output cell geometry is set to ‘polygon’ and writer is set to polygon too. Does anyone know what is wrong here? Is another step in terms of geometry replacement or definition needed? Steps: Reader to read the GeoTiff (or Raster). RasterCellCoercer to convert the rastercells to polygons. AttributeCreator to convert the raster cell value to attribute. In this case _band{0}.value. Relevant writer to write the result to polygon FC.Thanks in advance! 

Hey all, I'm trying to do some webservice calls with the httpcaller. Unfortunately i'm getting the famous SSL connect error. I've tried setting the 'verify ssl certificate' to no but i'm still getting the error. I'm using FME 2020.1 and as an example i'm trying to do a get on the next endpoint/url:https://jira.atlassian.com/rest/api/latest/issue/JRA-9 My http caller settingsThe endpoint in the browser gets a nice Json back as response. The httpcaller however doesn't. The certificate is a wildcard certificate (could the be an issue?).Can anyone check it out if it works for them

how to find the all paths between start node and end nodeexactly i have 8 nodes ,as point A,B,C;D;E;F;G ;Hi want to check the all paths possible what ever the length of path but i want to find any path available between every Node between Node A and the rest of nodes (B,C;D;E;F;G;H)then checck between Node B and the rest of Node (A,C;D;E;F;G;H)and so on ,i want to check between one node and the rest of nodesfor sure some of them has no connections liens ,i want to define that also which two nodes has no possible paths. i used shortest path finder but i think,it is working only to find the short path between path A and path B,but i want to find all possible paths between A and B even it is long or short and get the id of each line through this path . i prepared my network so all lines are connected without any gaps so i have now paths between some nodes and some not depend on the network .Thank

The issue is, when I click on the 'Authenticate' button, then I get a browser window where I can authenticate myself against our Enterprise Portal and the portal returns a token. In other applications such as Jupyter the token needs to be copied and handed over to the requesting applica

Hi friends,I am trying to do converstion from a vertices to lines that I am working on for a somebody. He use a GPS to track prarire dogs for his work.So I looked at the shapefile he provided me and it has no GPS. So I create them with the latitude and longtitude. What I am trying to do here is to use the LineBuilder here and then use writer to create a new shapefile…It came out nothing…What might I go wrong here ? I work for US agency and we have FME Desktop 2022.2 version. Do not ask me why. Thanks

Hi all,I'm wirting a program and I thing is alos usefull for other: FME-Starter simplifies the opening of FMW files when installing several FME version. The program must first be associated with the .fmw file extension (Windows context menu, Open with). When opening FMW-files, it will check if there is an FME version installed that matches the last one saved.If yes, this workbench will be opened with this version. Otherwise a selection of all installed FME versions is displayed. If a hotkey is pressed when starting the program, the selection is also displayed. In the settings you can choise the hotkey between Shift or Control. On dircet opening the executable yout can choise the FME-version to run. In the settings you can choise a hotkey (Shift or Control) to run the actual version directly. With FMX-files (custom-transformer) the FME-Starter has the same behaviour with the difference that the fi

 Hello dear community,For our student project, we need to provide an evaluation using the FME software. We obtain our data via a REST API, which has a limit of 500 records.

Which transformer can I use to identify overlapping polygons in a single dataset and show them as the output.

Hello experts,I need suggestions or some help on getting FME workbench to output 2 excel files based on a user parameter which the user will be asked to supply before the workbench begins to run.Both files will be the result of tracing a feeder (the user parameter) downstream from its origin at the feeder/hypernode point.The first file I am trying to output should contain something similar to the below.So up to column G is trace and H and I is result of spatial intersection. This is based on the above screenshot which shows the feeder extension (brown line). The hypernode is located at the zonesub (blue square) and then we want all reclosers (red and white circles) along the feeder to be captured and outputted as well as the fire polygon(s) the feeder intercepts.

I have a very large dataset where all of the polylines have elevation that should be measure data.  The custom transformer ElevationtoMeasureCopier is such a memory hog that the workbench is failing on my computer and on my server.  Is there a different way to copy the elevation data to measures?
