Hello everyone!I have a problem that I don't quite know how to approach.I want to automate the production of coordinate frames in AutoCAD.The idea is to define a work area (by a square polygon) and extract the relevant coordinate frame for it, as attached in the file, and in the picture.The question is, how can I attach the coordinate labels to the relevant places on the frame?I would appreciate advice from those who can give..Thanks!

I'm working on a workbench converting CSV files with WKT geometry into autocad SDF. For some featuretypes i want to allow multigeometry. If I manually make a new feature in autocad map I can select some geomtric types that combine line and surface, point and surface, etc. .If I set the fme_geometry{0} in the schema to FME_point, i get the SDF point geometric type. But if I add fme_geometry{1}: FME_line, fme_geometry{2}:FME_polygon (This is what it looks like when I read a file with this combined geometric type into FME). It looks like only the geometry{0} is read and I also get the Geometric type point.Is there a way to use these other types? like point+curve, point+surface, .. ?screenshot below shows the geometric types available in SDF:

When I open a workbench in 2022 that is authored in an earlier version, the user parameters that contain file paths disappear. Below is the screen shots of a workbench in 2021:These are the screen shots of the same source info in 2022I am using FME 2022.0.1.1 (

Hi,today I have a problem with the excelwriter. I create a simple workflow:The result in excel:Why is it insert a comma and not a dot?The Data Inspector also show different types:Best regards,Florian

How Can I to merge text from imagem below  To   Using FME Desktop?  Thank´s

I have wS for KMZ i create the Ws direct get the data from website which perfectly working fine now the problem is this that most of data require is in HTML format I used the technique which here https://community.safe.com/s/article/how-to-expose-feature-attributes-from-kml-tag Now I need that ws where I get direct from website and join with that KMZ which converting SHAPEFILE  please anyone here who help me out please find the WS

See picture above for more context. I have made sure they are under the same coordinates when impporting them into the process as well as using the coordinate system setter but still no luck in making them overlap in the inspector afterwards.Im not sure if I am missing something obvious since I am new to FME or whether its an issue with the shp files. 

I have the Geodatabase data with around 40 milions of records in it with huge size but want read this data in parts like 1 to 10000000 , next adding it to next slot 10000001 to 20000000 to get it written in SQL database. In reader, geodatabase i have Object ID as one field with count to follow as per records.How it can be acheived with giving parameters in reader itself with different slots creating to migrate the data in different FME workbences as per slots.

I have long believed FME can read any GIS files. But today look like it can't handle a single band rrd (reduced resolution dataset) raster. Any workaround? or I need to go back to ESRI model builder?

Hello FME'ers,Welcome to What's Up Wednesday The Community Café Goes LiveIt's less than a week now until the FME User Conference 2022 gets underway, and I'm certainly getting excited about this event. One part that I'm running is called the Community Café, which has a lot of different activities and giveaways for all community members. You can find them listed on the FME-powered Community Café website:  When you're actually at the conference and stop by the booth, you'll have access to all of the activities, including City Guesser, the Community Virtual Badge,

Hello, I need to geocode information related to permit applications from a shared Google Sheets file. This file is regularly updated and contains two different tabs that I need to retrieve the information to geocode using Bing geocoding services. The output file is a Geopackage which allowed the creation of a map representing the two types of permits.The purpose of this workflow is to update the GeoPackage file with the updated information from the shared Google Sheet file, so that each time if there are new records from the Google Sheet file, these are added in GeoPackage.Unfortunately, when I run my Workspace, I get the following error message:OGCGEOPACKAGE writer: Requested feature type 'chiens_ptdx_re_conditions2' does not exist. OGCGEOPACKAGE writer does not have the ability to create new feature types. Create the feature type on the dataset before writingOGCGEOPACKAGE writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logf

Hallo FME community,I have a line and there are vertices on it. I want to have vertex as point. (exactly a tool like "Feature Vertices To Points" in ArcGIS) I used Intersector and topologybuilder for this and they don't exactly give me the vertex. Attached you find the pictures.     

In print it is possible to visualize the line created, totally without logic, and in red what would be the appropriate route.

I have XML file that contains GEOMETRYCOLLECTION for each object and it might contain lines, points, areas. I have this GEOMETRYCOLLECTION already in attribute but how to create multiple features out of those text geometries?

I am using FME Desktop 2021.2I pass my aws credentials to the s3connector through user parameters. The user parameters are all password type parameters.I am having no issue with the Access Key ID, or Secret Access Key but I am experiencing an issue with the Session Token.I'm finding that passing the session token as a password user parameter causes the following rejection:`fme_rejection_message' has value `S3Connector: There was an error connecting to Amazon S3: 'An error occurred (InvalidToken) when calling the GetObject operation: The provided token is malformed or otherwise invalid.'. Confirm that your credentials and region settings are correct. Some regions are not publicly available - contact AWS for more information'If I pass the session token as text type user parameter then I do not get this rejection and the workspace continues with the download from s3.

Hi everyone,Here's a post for sharing ideas and activities, for organizing social events, or for just passing on messages during the 2022 User Conference. Note: I can't guarantee to be monitoring this page. Best to tweet me on FMEEvangelist to get a more reliable response. Here's some information that I have: Things to Do In VancouverHere is a Safe webpage with some suggestions. This includes restaurants, activities, and similar. There is also the community page from 2017 that also has some suggestions. Official Event ActivitiesOfficial activities include: Socce

I have 2 different (postgis) writers (A and B), one of which is sometimes temporary not accessible. FME checks at the start if all writers (A and B) are accessible, and if not, fails to execute the workbench.So I wonder if it is possible (e.g. by the use of a parameter specifying which (only) writer to use) to bypass the "accessibility-check" of e.g. writer A so that only writer B is being used and the workbench is still being executed? I use this in a batch-script where I "ping" to A and B, and therefore know at the start whether A and/or B are accessible.

Hello,Recently, we have installed FME Destkop 2022.1.We are aware of the fact that FME Desktop 2022 only supports Python 64-bit. On the same machine, ArcGIS Pro 2.8 is installed.Although Esri ArcIS Python 3.7 is selected as parameter and as preferred Python Interpreter, it seems to be impossible to use ArcPy. After many attempts, still the same error appears: "Python Exception <OSError>: [WinError 193] %1 is not a valid Win32 application." What could be wrong?  Kind regards,Pim van der Zwaag.

I have 2 files: dgn1 (main data) dgn2 (reference) The two files should be checked against each other for duplicates. In the end, the dgn2 should be recreated without the duplicates contained in dgn1. Please help. Thanks.

Suppose I am reading 3 files through Feature Reader and setting maximum features to read = 10. Then it is reading 10 features from 1st file and doesn't read any data from other 2 files.

i have seen a lot of write ups with this heading but none actually do what the title says. i have been able to read a kmz and get it to a writer but the .json file is empty. there is no error message, just no data when i inspect the json. i have attached the workbench. i want the user to select a kmz and the workbench write it as a json, i am using ESRI JSON because the GeoJSON will error out.

FME Desktop version 2022.1 (64-bit) How to find the source data (a feature class from Personal Geodatabase or File Geodatabase) geometry type is annotation (ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro based) or not?
