Hi, We use FME Desktop 2021.1We read and applied the exact procedure found here, for single tenant application (custom Client ID):How to create a Sharepoint Web Connection (safe.com) However, when all the steps are followed, when we test the connection, we have an extra window asking for user authentification. However, the aim would be to use this webservice without the user to be identified : this way, the script could be executed by anyone.Moreover, when trying to identify with my personnel Azure account, it says that the approbation from an admin is required, so that FME can access the resources.Is it possible to overpass this authentification? Thanks a lot !

Hello, After upgrading FME Server from 2019 to 2020 on Linux, i do have this message when i try to launch an FMEJobSubmitter : 1062021-8-5 17:39:57 | FMEServerJobSubmitter (ServerFactory): https://myserver.fr - Failed to submit request to run workspace 'Integration_Classeur_Affaire.fmw' in repository 'Affaire'1072021-8-5 17:39:57 | FMEServerJobSubmitter (ServerFactory): Reason - unable to connect to FME Server 'https://myserver.fr' Regards,Stephane

Hello,I am trying to convert from revit to cesium 3d tiles using the dynamic schema definition. I remember it working well before, but suddenly this issue comes up. When disabling the revit reader (only one in the workspace, see image below), the error doesn't pop up, but of course, the attributes are not written since no schema is found. Any idea on why this happens? Note: Revit's feature_type_names are separated by a dot character (e.g. Mechanical.MechanicalEquipment) Here is the error:The PERSISTENT_CACHE_NAME directive must be specified when creating a persistent cache.  It's value should be a valid string useable as a subfolder nameError fetching dynamic schema definitions from reader `REVITNATIVE_1'. Error reading from `D:\...\plant.rvt' reader.The PERSISTENT_CACHE_NAME directive must be specified when creating a persistent cache.  It's value should be a valid string useable as a subfolder nameMULTI_WRITER: Error fetching dynamic schema definitions from reader 'REVITNATIVE_1'Attr

Hi Guys, New to FME but really enjoying the journey to date. Today I hit my first confusing issue which although I have resolved I am pretty sure they must be a better way. I had:Created an MSSQL tableCreated an FME reader which detected the schema including attribute types and so forth.Did some processing and wrote to a file geodatabase. But:I then made some minor changes to the underlying MSSQL table i.e. changed text to decimal etc.However the reader would not detect these changes. I had to delete and recreate the reader for then changed to be detected. Is there some easier method which I am missing to get the reader to detect changes to the table schema in the database? Apologies in advance if the solution is simple but I am missing it! Thanks,Barry.

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone here has any idea why this is happening. When I open fmeworkbench.exe, four processes are created:QtWebEnginepProcess.exeQtWebEnginepProcess.exefmeobjectsworker.exefmeworkbench.exe But when I close the FME Workbench window, only the top three processes are ended. fmeworkbench.exe continues to run in the background. The number of fmeworkbench.exe processes keeps increasing the more times I open and close FME Workbench, which is quite often on a typical day. It ends up taking a lot of memory, so I'd like to figure out how get these closed properly. This behavior is consistent across the three versions of FME I have installed (2017.1.2.1 32 bit, 2021.1.2.0 32 bit, 2021.0.1.0 64 bit), and is only occurring on a Windows Server 2012 machine. FME Workbench (and FME Data Inspector) are the only programs on the server that are exhibiting this run in background after closing behavior. I've tested on a Windows 10 machine and the workbench processes are en

Hey FME'ers. I've not been online for a bit recently (because of updating the FME training materials for 2017) but I wanted to throw out a new idea that is part challenge, but part crowdsourcing.I came up with the idea of an FME-driven service for assessing a workspace for best practices. Just now I found I wasn't the first to think of this, which shows there aren't any new ideas any more!Anyway, in my spare time I've been putting together a workspace using the FMW reader to test other workspaces for best practice. I've built about 20 different tests and can think of quite a few more. But I thought it would be great if we - the FME community - could work together to take this idea to completion.So, this is an open invite to take part in this project. I think there are a number of different ways you could contribute:Develop a best practices test and add it to the project workspaceDo some testing on the project workspace to look for faults or enhancementsImprove t

I have a data that contains whitespaces at the beginning, between and at the end. I have used an attributetrimmer to trim out the spaces at the beginning and end, but I am left with the spaces in between. Please, does anyone have an idea of how I can go about it because I can't keep using a stringreplacer repeatedly for this large dataset?

FME Desktop: Attributes fails to be transferred to a file geodatabase, In the screenshot below, I wanted to write the result of the “geometry filter” into a file geodatabase having all fields transferred. However, the indicated fields are not transferred. What could be the issue here? The data and workbench are attached        

I'm trying to convert a CityGML file into a 3d model that I could open with Blender, I was able to use FME data inspector to convert it to .obj, but it doesn't come with any textures. How can I convert CityGML to .obj or other 3d format with textures included? EDIT: And by the way I have never used FME before, and I'm not planning to use it for anything else than converting CityGML to 3d models, so explaining the process step-by-step would be really helpful.

I am creating a connection to an Access DB. The database has a username and password, and when I do the connections for the DB in FME it only asks for a password. After i set the connection up, i create a Reader for it, but after the reader is created it asks me for the username and password for the MS access db again. How do i get this to stop? Cause it is going to ask me that information everytime i run this query, which will be automated.

I build a .kml polygon from information contained in a .pdf file we receive for utility location planning print requests. The polygon has attributes with contact info, start date, bounding box long/lat coordinates, etc... I also have a utility locate app in ArcGIS Online that contains a survey 123 form, a webmap, and a dashboard for tracking the requests. I would like to auto populate the survey123 form with the data from the .kml including the polygon bounding box if possible. It sounds like it should be doable from this: https://support.esri.com/en/technical-article/000017982Could an httpcaller put transformer send the custom url to survey 123?Thanks for any insight you care to share.

Desktop version 2020.2.0.0 Build 20787, FME Server version 2020.2 Build 20787.  When the workbench is run in Desktop, the result is:> FMEServerNotifier: Sent notification to topic ... on FME ServerAnd the second workbench in FME Server gets triggered as expected. However, when it is run in FME Server, the result is:> FMEServerNotifier: Failed to send notification to topic ... on FME Server>FMEServerNotifier: Reason - unable to connect to FME Server Some things that have been attempted:+ ensuring 64 bit desktop upload to 64 bit Server+ using a different connection+ trying to verify topic and connection credentials with admin person+ verified the Topic can be run directly within FME Server, which triggers the other workbench correctly+ Desktop and FME Server versions appear to be the same ie 2020+ adjusted the python interpreter+adjusted the Notifier's preceding transformer to remove excess rejected data, such that the input into the notifier is purely a single celled table

Due to a company merge, need to change the network domain for the entire infrastructure. What is the best way to handle FME server migration to the new domain? Is it possible to do an in-place migration, rather than building a new FME server?

I've created a workspace server app which allows the user to select a projection from the list of FME coordinate systems and reproject their data. The desktop workbench has access to our FME server (e.g. \\\\A-FME\\FME\\CoordinateSystems) and is able to choose from the list of custom coordinate systems created by our survey department, but the server app does not list the custom coords. I've manually copied the custom files to the server (/a-fme/fmeserver/#/resources/browse/FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_ENGINE/CoordinateSystems?name=Engine) but it still doesn't list any of the coords. I've followed the instructions as stated here. Any ideas or suggestions will be much appreciated.

Hello everyone,This is the FME news for 19th January, 2022. Favourite Transformers PollThank you to everyone who took part in my "Favourite Transformers" poll over the last couple of days. Here's the top-ten list of favourites:  FeatureReaderTestFilterAttributeManagerFeatureWriterHTTPCallerAttributeCreatorFeatureJoinerTesterFeatureMergerSpatialFilter So in my not-very-scientific method, the FeatureReader is the FME Community's favourite transformer ever!   Some statistics:There were 65 different transformers mentioned. There were 4 FME Hub transformers on the list. The highest Hub transformer was the NoFeatureTester (22nd). The least-loved favourite was the JSONFragmenter.Of the most-used transformers, 6 of the top 20 were not anyone's favourite!Inspector, AttributeRemover, AttributeRenamer, StringReplacer, AttributeFilter, Counter I'm not sure why no-one likes the Counter! But none of my personal favourites made your top-ten, so I'm obviously no judge. My

Hello,I'd like to "remember" an attribute and use it to populate an attribute of another feature in the same execution.I thought AttributeKepper would do the job (because of the name haha), but the value of the attribute is empty, except in the first pass through the breakpoint.

Hi,  I am getting the following error from FME Server: The custom transformer'DateTime_Standard' referenced by this workspace was found, but could not be loaded. The custom transformer was created with a newer version of FMEWorkbench I have a workbench uploaded to FME server which contains 3 custom transformers. Each custom transformer presents the same error when I run the workbench. Both the workbench and the 3 custom transformers are in the same repository when the workbench is ran. The FME desktop version for both the workbench and all 3 custom transformers is:FME(R) 2021.1.2.0 (20210903 - Build 21627 - WIN64)  The FME server build is: FME Server 2021.1.1 Build 21619 - win64   I assume to fix the error, I need to match FME desktops build to FME server so Ihave attempted to source FME desktop Build 21619. However that is not available on the safe software download page: https://www.safe.com/support/downloads/#past-versions I would prefer to avoid upgrading FME Server at this
