Skip to main content

Hello,

I have a web application that provides JSON results on a webpage. However, this results is created using javascript and web workers (mostly for efficiency purpose). Therefore, the javascript process takes some time to complete, and update the DOM content of the page.

As I result, the HTTPCaller transformer provides the page content before the update (and the JSON result being integrated).

 

I own the web service as well, do you think of a way (both in FME or on the web service side) to gather the JSON result in FME ?

 

Thanks !

Hey, I don't belive you'll be able to make this work. FME will only read the page contents and not parse any code (javascript).

 

An alternate way would be to replicate the JS logic on your page in FME


Thanks for your reply, I was not aware of that.
