Can FME connects to Quickbase?

Hi, Does FME support Quickbase data reading and writing? Thank you,

Error in FileGDB which is undetectable in a log file

I ran an FME workbench to create gdb for spatial and non-spatial data (approximately 25 data layers). The process ran successfully and created gdb which has the expected size. Now, when I try to open the gdb, it only shows one table. Although, the log file shows that it reads and writes all the layers successfully. If someone has faced the same issue, I really appreciate your insight on the same.

How can I send batches , for example, 5 rows from the database (SQL non-Spatil) and send to a JSONTemplater and repeat this process?

Hi, I am new to the FME desktop. I am reading data, for example, 10 rows from my database (SQL non-spatial) transforming it to JsonTemplater and sending it via HTTPCaller. It is working fine. Therefore, there is a constraint to sending only batches of 100 rows per JSON file. I have already tried the decelerator but the decelerator only delays the rows. Could somebody help me? Thanks Raphael Yamada

Hello,I need to create a bounding box with 5-8 vertex for my polygones. The BoundingBoxReplacer has 4 vertex only. I tried the HullReplacer, but it creates too many vertex - 10-20. But need only 5-8 vertes around my polygone.Do you have an idea?Thank you anyway.Regards

Tick interval greyed out in ChartGenerator

Hi!I am a beginner and trying to calculate a histogram showing point cloud density. I succeeded in creating a bar histogram with the ChartGenerator, however, I have problems with the label, especially the x axis. The x axis shows the number of points 1...394. As you can see the x tick interval is probably 1, but of course I would like to change this to a bigger interval The only problem is that the x and y tick interval is greyed out. Does anyone know why and how I can activate this? I upload an image showing the histogram I get as well as the properties of the ChartGenerator. Thanks in advance!

FME Server App - Cache issue

Hello, I am facing a cache issue with Autocad file using Workspace App - FME 2022.2.0.0. Build 22765 1. I created and published a workspace that reads a DWG file2. I created a Workspace App.3. I upload an Autocad file to my app and runs the workspace. -> OK4. I make some modification on the DWG file on my machine and save edits5. I re-upload the Autocad file to my app and runs the workspace -> NOK. The workspace runs with the non edited Autocad file...6. I go to the App interface and click CTRL + SHIFT + R in order to clear the cache.7. I upload the edited Autocad file and runs the workspace -> OK, the workspace reads the edited Autocad file. Is there another workaround I can use instead of clearing the cache ? I don't want my users to rename their Autocad file after edition.The workspace is in attachment.Thank you !Laurent

Trying to figure out how to do a Server App with validation of user input (with FME Server 2022.2.3)

Trying to figure out how to do that with FME Server 2022.2.3Have the user fill a form ( my guess: Server App with User Parameters)Validate the data entered by the user (lookup into a database for existing value)If the data is good, process the data and confirm the user that the processing succeeded.If there are any errors in the user input, the user should be prompted to correct the input and submit for validation again.When data is submitted correctly, an email is sent to the supervisor with a link that will allow him to validate and complete extra data fields (such as authorization number)I thought that I would be able to do this with Server Apps, Automations or Webhooks, but I can't figure out how to direct the user to a "second step" input .Any Idea is welcome :) Thank you.

I'm trying to create an FME workbench that reads a FGDB, applies a data joiner to populate a field that is missing from the FGDB than use this to update an existing layer in an SDE connection using truncate and load>

The way i currently have it working is a 2 step process where Step1 I use the input FGDB as my reader ---> data joiner to populate my missing field ---> write out to a temp FGDB. Step 2 i use this temp FGDB as my reader to write to my SDE connection where i truncate and load it in to update. I'm trying to find a more way to make this more of a streamlined process if possible?

Attach the result file of an ETL to a response body when triggering a job on the server with REST API

Hey.I am trying to implement a REST logic to one of my etl's. I have few parameters where i input data. For example a string where the user should input a WKT or GeoJSON geometry. We are passing this parameter to the ETL with the REST Api service, we are manipulating the geometry and i want to print out the resulted geometry in GeoJSON or WKT format in the response body of the etl. Right now i am getting a response that contains only the job details but no results.

Check floating license availability in .NET

I need to develop a .NET app to execute somo FME workspaces with FME Desktop.Before doing that, I would like to check if there is a license available (there are only two floating license). Is there a way of achieving that? I could assume that if the process doesn't start is due to license problems, but I was wondering if there is a better way. Thanks for any help provided.

How to define a condition?

Hello,I have been trying to solve this issue for several days now and I can't get a result. I have a set of points within the database that I am sending against the polygon of interest . To clarify to which category each point belongs, points inside the polygon are known points without a question tag (?). Points out of the polygon are unknown points; therefore, a question tag exists before the point name (?). There is a track formed of these points that variously goes into the polygon, from the polygon, and it creates the definition of points within the track, which can look like this: 1. ?APKO ?DANKO POPKO FERI LAKO POKO ARN DAN2. APKO DANKO POPKO FERI LAKO ?POKO ?ARN ?DAN3. ?APKO ?DANKO POPKO FERI LAKO POKO ?ARN ?DAN 4. ?APKO ?DANKO POPKO FERI LAKO ?POKO ?ARN ?DAN JAKO DMZ POPO5. APKO DANKO POPKO ?FERI ?LAKO POKO ARN DAN The aim is to remap the points with question tag (?) into the value without the question tag - to create known points out of unknown points for the target system

Sorting segments

Hello. Does anyone have knowledge of how to determine the sequential order of segments based on already created geometry? Or any other option? For example, I have L616 tracks where I need to combine the points in the list of fixes into one value. If I use the aggregator, I have values in one column, but the values are not consecutive, see the aggregator attachment - the aggregator writes segments - DENKO BINPO VELAB MISKA ETNEL PEKOT DESEN continues KEROP NIVIS VAL REDVA ?KOGAT ?BITLA and ends NIT TABIN ALAMU. It should be correctly DENKO BINPO VELAB MISHKA ETNEL PEKOT DESEN continues NIT TABIN ALAMU and ends KEROP NIVIS VAL REDVA ?KOGAT ?BITLAIndividual segments that have an expected trajectory from top to bottom are in the attachment. Thank you very much

Search entire attribute table for the existence of a particular string

Hi I have a feature service that is apart of a Survey123 survey. The survey will indicate if something has failed in a variety of ways. I currently have a workspace that has a testfilter transformer looking through 50 different attribute columns looking for the word Fail. Then from each output port there is an action that is taken. Is there a transformer that I could use to search the whole attribute table for the word fail instead? Thanks!

Just for Fun. Check random transformer using π.

Special Pi Day Post Workbench that approximates π by generating a lot of random points within a square area and filtering the points within the 'circle' area. Inspired by Math Parker. Keep in mind that a buffer does not generate a perfect circle, rounding random numbers has a negative effect on the randomness and with more random points there will be a more consistent result.

Longitudinal and transverse overlap

Hello everyone, I am currently training in remote sensing. Is it possible to calculate the overlap rate between each pair of images, in the longitudinal direction and in the direction transverse to the flight axes via the FME software? I have tried many manipulations via the "AreaOnAreaOverlayer" transformer, but it does not allow me to differentiate between the longitudinal and transverse directions.I am open to any ideas. With kind regards,

How to use StringSearcher to find today's date in a list

Hello, i have a list of files from an FTP server that I have read into a List. The last field in the list is the file name. The file name generally follows this format: "ProjectInfo_YYYYMMDD". YYYY is the four digit year, MM is the 2 digit month, and DD is the 2 digit day. I want to choose the one that matches today's date. I'm guessing this can be accomplished with the use of a user param or regular expression but I can't seem to find a reference on it. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hello, I'm new to FME desktop, I want to ask if there is a way to add object mapping so i get the value of a key?

I am making an HTTPCaller request that in return outputs key, I need to make another HTTPCaller request with the value of the returned key (e.g, if returned key = "Yes" value is 15225 | if returned key = "Male" it's corresponding value is 15222)is there a way to store an object on FME desktop to be used like _instance ?? I think it might be done using JsonValueMapper transformer

Is there a big difference in the rastermosaicker v5 and v7

Hi I just updated my FME 2021 to 2022.I opened a workbench to make jp2000's from geotiff tiles. We use this wb very often. When I open this wb in FME 2022 I can update the clipper and rastermosaicker transformers.When I run the wb I get an error that some geotiff tiles have 3 raster bands and some have 4 rasterbands.I used rasterselector to select the first 3 bands followed with the rasterbandkeeper, but the wb gave the same error. Then I used rasterselector to select the fourth band followed by the rasterbandremover. Then some tiles were outputted as rejected. When I don't upgrade the clipper and the rastermosaicker everything works just fine... Maybe it's because I just updated to a new version and my pc's need a couple of restarts for things to settle down... I already purged the temp files.

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to pass an attribute that I created from a string concatenator through a feature type filter? Thanks.

I am trying to clip many different data layers based on a county boundaries for quarterly updates. I need each layer to end up writing to its own feature class. I am trying to not have to use a lot of different clippers or have to update the writer feature class name every Quarter. That is why I am trying to use a string concatenator that will add the correct quarter to a new attribute to use as the name each quarter. I figured out that I can use the feature type filter after the clipper to get everything to the correct writer feature class but the attribute that I created does not get passed through the filter. The field is under the drop down for blank and unfiltered but not on any of the other ports.

Sharing FME Engine on multiple FMEServer Installation

Hello, I would like to know if this architecture is available with FMEServer : 2 Servers are independent, each have their own FME Interface / ConfigurationNevertheless, these servers share the ENgine.In this configuration , we can imagine for example that these servers share 2 static licences and 7000 hours of dynamic licences.I think it is possible using 3-tier architecture , but I'm not sure 100%. FME is getting more and more popular in my job and maybe, if technically possible, this architecture would be a solution to ease the administration.Thank you
