I am trying to setup SSO/SAML on FME server. We already have https enabled and I am able to login using the AD credentials.We are following below documentation and for FME server setting, it says to go to Authentication services which I am unable to locate under user management. Is there anything that I am missing or anything that I have to enable ? https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/WebUI/SAML-Configuration.htm Thanks

Can I create a FME server app that allows the user to select from a dynamic list of gdb version names. I am able to create a workbench with a reader that reads the SDE_VERSIONS table but I don't know if its possible to use the version table create a pick list as a user parameter that would allow the user to select the version name to be used down stream. Thanks,Ali

I want some data from the log, and I am using API to get this data anyone knows which format I use in feature reader to get the data from log file 

Hello. I'm working for a client on FME desktop 2018.1. My workbench was working fine, reading SQL tables and writing Arcgis Portal Features Services. Since we  changed the authentication system (IWA), I don't have access to the layers anymore. I'm able to connect successfully to the Arcgis Portal Feature Service (through NTLM, domain\username), but I cannot access to the features themselves anymore ("Failed to retrieve feature types error"). If we disable IWA, it's working fine but this is not an option. Thank you in advance.Merged 0 schema features read from 1 datasets into 0 resulting feature types UniversalReader -- readSchema resulted in 0 schema features being returned Failed to obtain any schemas from reader 'ARCGISPORTALFEATURES' from 1 datasets. This may be due to invalid datasets or format accessibility issues due to licensing, dependencies, or module loading.. 

The instructions available for using PFX (step 6 in this document https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/AdminGuide/configuring_for_https.htm#Using) says to export as a Base-64 encoded X.509 (CER) file. Appears newer versions of Chrome and Edge only have following options. Which would I use instead of CER file and are there differences with importing with keytool into cacerts keystore?

I have a problem when uploading a workspace to FME server using the API. There is a difference in the date output in feature writer in CSV format. I have a datetime formatter which change the date to %d-%m-%Y %T.When run the job on FME server after publishing from FME desktop the output CSV has the espected value "29-05-2016 11:36:03.553" (%d-%m-%Y %T).When run the job after POST by the API the output in the CSV is "20160529113603.553" (date format FME).In the featurewriter the output is manual and the date field is set to string.I don't understand this behaviour.

I have a large number of images, some of which have a colour range that is different to the rest. I have a csv file that lists each filename and whether it requires adjustment or not.I would like to be able to modify the red, green and blue for those images using a quadratic formula, something like: set Red=if([needsadjustment]=1,max(min(Red^2*-0.004+Red*1.78+57,255),0),Red)and similarly for green and blue channels.Can anyone advise if this is possible using FME please?ThanksRob

Hi. I would like to ask for advice. I have one airport geometry and I have for example three runways to this airport (for example BENESOV). I need to write this data into a shapefile including geometry = 3 x BENESOV airport geometry with runway number see printscreen. 204 elements are correct for the input of the shapefilewriter, but we only write elements that have one runway to one airport. Can someone please advise how to solve this? I am also attaching WS in the attachment. thank you very much

Hi,I need to test multiple FeatureCounters with one Tester so that if any of the counters have a value of zero then the test fails. Unfortunately the tests always fails because some of the fields are missing when the counters appear in the Tester's results. The test below is supposed to pass. Is there a way to set this up so that I can get the results that I am looking for?

I have created by text adder for polygon .point with text name of polygon but I have noticed after writing them in gdb Esri api or in Esri shape file .when I try to read the output again , I read only points ,i see it but I do not see any text with point ,why ?i would like to have point with text as I have written ,Does it possible ?Thanks in advance FME 2021

Hello FME friends,After a week away, here's a very full edition of What's Up Wednesday.  Certification Program UpdatesAs of this week, you'll notice major changes to our FME Certification program. Firstly, there is a new trail on the FME Academy to help you learn the required skills to pass the exam:  Yes, that says 62 hours, but that's if you are starting from scratch with no FME skills. If you're considering certification, I expect that you would have completed many of these modules already, or have the equivalent amount of training and/or experience. Secondly, the FME Certification exams are now being "proctored". This means that automated software monitors your exam to ensure the right person is taking the test and does not receive outside help.  It's not that we don't trust you, but we think certifications have more value when carried out under secure conditions like this. It also lets us process your applications quickly and provide interacti

 I have used text adder to create name of polygon at the middle .So i have points geometry as name of each polygon at middle of polygon and polygon borders.i would like to merge both of them and have point and borders in one layer .How could I do it ? i would like to keep only attributes and rows of polygon borders .there is id common between polygon borders and points  Fme 2021 Thabks in advance

I have migrated data into Utility Network but have a large amount of duplicate stacked point features. They all need to remain but the network topology will remain dirty unless I find a way to make these duplicate XY's unique. After testing a few manually, it seems to work if I add a z value of 1 to only the duplicate points and revalidate topology. So if I could add a z-value of 1 to only the duplicates using FME, it would solve my issue. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am trying to read in a csv and write the contents into a javascript file. It works at least 90% of the way and looks like this when I export the features:[ { feature1: value1, feature2: value2 }, { .... } ] I would like to insert the text "var data = " at the beginning of the file, like so:var data =[ { feature1: value1, feature2: value2 }, { .... } ] Is it possible to insert this text in the file before the JSON writer writes out the contents?  Another detail is that this CSV file has over 5 million rows. It is difficult to open the file and write in the text or use powershell commands. Any help is appreciated!

Hey everyone I am completely new to FME capabilties. We currently use Civil 3D 2023 and were looking for a simple way to create a geospatial PDF from a Civil 3D Drawing (DWG) file. Just wondering what solutions FME offers for this? Thanks everyone!

Hi, we're getting an out of memory issue running a workbench in 2022.2 that runs fine on the same computer in version 2021. Has the way the vertexd creator processes data changed?

Hello I have to migrate a MySQL DB to a Postgres DB. The input DB contains about 200 different tables. Some fields of these tables contain url. Before migrating these urls, I would like to validate them. I have created a workspace which works perfectly fine using a sequence of transformers HTTPCaller transformer.Before publishing it to FME Server, I would like to define some parameters amongst which the name of the table and the name of the field containing the url to check. Is there a way to do this? I have tried to use published paramaters which is ok for the fieldname but I cannot see how to do it on reader feature type. Thanks in advance for your help.I would like to create a workspace using a MySQL DB containing about 200 tables as input to let user define the table (and the field)

For some reason the .fmw script does work on FME desktop ( 2021.2.3) and does yield an output (in my case a geojson). When I import the script on FME Server (version 2021.2.4) then the script is completed without raising any error, but doesn't write the file on a map. I am quite sure that  the Published parameter "Destination JSON file" is correctly written. When I look at the view details tab after the script has been completed, I see a lot of statements with Nuke or TeeFactory. I read on the following link in the answer of merlingeorge: https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q00009fDZGRSA4/disabled-nuker-1-50-teefactory- that it might have to do with version incompatibility. Might that also be the case in my situation? I would assume there wouldn't be much differences between FME desktop 2021.2.3 en 2021.2.4. By the way, some lines below have been omitted due to security concerns. 40 2022-12-1 15:38:40 | Creating writer for format:41 2022-12-1 15:38:40 | Creating reader for format

Whenever we try to use a Reader or Writer to connect to ArcGIS Portal we're getting the error "Type 3, Number 1, Message: Failed to get authorization header" when using the [...] file browser button in the Service Parameters dialog.(Workbench >> Add Reader >> Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service >> {add portal url} >> Parameters >> {select auth type: Web Service} >> {select portal web connection} >> [...] file browser >> >>> ERROR)We've verified the portal Web Connection works (Tools >> FME Options >> Web Connections >> Manage Services >> {select portal connection} >> Test). How to troubleshoot this further? FME Workbench v2020.2. I'm not sure of the ArcGIS Portal version. I think 10.8.1.

I have a single table, TABLE1. I have a field named STE. I would like to select the values of STE that are NOT NULL, then add the selected values in STE to the ADDR field in same table. What is the most suitable transformer(s) to go about doing this?

I have two Geodatabase Feature Classes, FC1 and FC2. I want to relate the GIS_ADDR field in FC1 to the ADDR_BASE field in FC2.  Once the relate is established, for the matching (selected) records in GIS_ADDR in FC1, I will then update the ADDR_SRCE field which is currently empty with the value "ADS"; for the records that do not match I will add the value "Res".  I know how to do this in ArcGIS Pro. What is the best approach to do this in FME?

Is there an attribute that can read labels, ie. I have some pipe geography with labels allocated from the search engine. They are clunky and are not well placed. I was wondering if its possible to read these and redistribute?

Is it possible to read text that has been written on the geodata and has not been tabulated? for example a box representing a building with a label in the middle displaying building number 4.

We want to purchase a single-fixed license for one of our virtual machines and we were wondering what that is linked to? What if we have to destroy the virtual machine, then we can't reuse it?Thanks in advance!
