FME2022, ArcGIS Pro 2.9.5, A compatible ArcGIS application not found

I have read pretty much all the articles on getting arcpy working on FME, but somehow I keep getting the message that a compatible ArcGIS application could not be found. I have FME 2022.1 installed. ArcGIS Pro v2.9.5, which ships with Python 3.7. In the Navigator, Esri ArcGIS Compatibility is set to Esri ArcGIS Pro, and Python Compatibility to Esri ArcGIS Python 3.7+In the Options, Preferred Python Interpreter is set to Esri ArcGIS Python 3.7+.

Issue with FME Server 2022 Excel Writer Output Splitting Data into Multiple Files.

Dear members of the FME community, I am currently facing an issue with my FME workbench 2020, which is running on FME Server 2020. The workbench includes an Excel Writer (latest version) that fans out data into multiple sheets within a single Excel file. This process has been functioning well on a weekly basis for the past two years on FME Server 2020. However, when I attempted to run the same workbench on FME Server 2022, the output was split into two Excel files instead of one, with the data divided between them. Additionally, the file naming convention in FME Server 2022 has changed, with the file name split into two halves, one for each file. For example, in FME Server 2020, the correct file name for the output would be "20230101_filename.xlsx." However, on FME Server 2022, the file name has been split into two parts, resulting in two separate files named "20230101_.xlsx" and "20230101_filename.xlsx." I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or poten

Are there users that can show an example using ggplot in FME Server?

I have a workbench script that makes multiple ggplots (graphs) for end-user reports. The Rcaller works great in FME Server without error, but it will not export the plots. The output excel files export, but not the plots.

How to merge a list of attributes based on just the attribute name

I would like to combine 2 datasets: one containing about 500 monument_id's and one with about 20 types with scores and remark fields that should be added to this monument_ids (to create a list of about 10.000 items).  As there is no attribute value to match (so FeatureJoiner or ReatureMerger doesn't work); can these somehow be combined based on predefined matching attribute names? Or what would be a good idea in this case? Thanks in advance!

sharepoint (file-overwrite) lock?

Hi There, So I am using the: safe.microsoft-sharepoint.SharePointOnlineConnector to download and create .xlsx files in my organization's SharePoint site-- and this transformer is awesome save for one fatal problem...the problem is that the connector only appears to be able to Download or Upload/Overwrite files--but it can not Update existing documents at SharePoint. And the problem is that if a user has the .xlsx document open (in a browser session) the Upload will terminate / fail until all users have closed out of their browser sessions viewing the document. My question: is there a way to Update documents at SharePoint that are being viewed, or is Overwriting the only option. And if the latter is the case, is there a way to terminate all open user sessions of the document at Sharepoint so that the new version can overwrite the old version...Otherwise this transformer, great as it is, is somewhat useless. Any thoughts on this issue, or is it just another "Curse you Bill&q

How can I create distance markers along a road/highway line feature at a regular interval and apply the correct distance along the line to each point?

I am trying to automate creation of highway markers along a highway line feature class. I have been able to create the points along the highways at the correct interval (Using the DistanceMarker transformer) but I can't figure out how to apply the correct distance along that line (in Kms) to the newly created points. Ie. 2km, 4km, 6km, etc. in an attribute for the new point features.

Speed up processing time

I am new but I feel I need to do something about the processing time so I looked up what I can do about it.1 Tiling. If I understand correctly, I can create 7 workers from a main project.

Best Practice to publish workbench to FME Server

When publishing a workbench to FME Server under my username and configuring it as an automation or schedule, what is the best practice as every time my username requires a password change the automations/schedules fail. Then one has to go in and modify the connections to update them so it will accept the new password. We are using AzureAD.

TestFilter doesn't filter properly when using FeatureAttribute but does work when using the actual value of the FeatureAttribute

I have a StatisticsCalculator that determines the min and max time values in a data set. If I feed the time.min and time.max into a TestFilter to filter out values from another table which are outside of the time.min and time.max range, the filter doesn't filter properly but if I use the actual time value is does. What do I need to do to get the TestFilter to work with the FeatureAttribute?

It was made with FME Workbench 2019.2.  I've been working days and weeks on the workbench, and foolish enough, my last 'handmade' backup is a week old.....  Is there a way to recover the .fmw file?

Processing JSON output with Fragmenter/Extractor

Hello, I am currently trying to process an output from the JSONformatter that has the below structure: name_1:"value_1",name_2:"value_2",name_3:"value_3", etc. The output I want to achieve is a feature set as per the below: name_1 name_2 (as columns)value_1 value_2 (as values) I am able to achieve it to an extent using the JSONFragmenter, but this seems to work only for 1 feature (i.e. name_1). I have tried to use the "+" as explained in the documentation but this instead produces a second row, rather than a 2nd column. May I ask for your advice please? Thank you, George
