On the item page of a hosted service you can export to fgdb and other formats.

The benefit of this over an fme reader and writer workflow is the easy preservation of unique ids, relationships and attachments. This also takes no local compute power/time.

 

Please make a way perform to the "Export To FGDB" (or other formats) found on the hosted feature layer item page within FME.


There is already a method to download items from arcgis online with the use of the ArcGISOnlineConnector (https://docs.safe.com/fme/2020.1/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Transformers/Transformers/arcgisonlineconnector.htm)

If we could create the fgdb through fme, we could also download and manipulate it within a workspace.

 

I'm doing some lengthy transformations on a million+ records. Performing these actions through the Online Readers/Writers is taking hours (90% is reading from the REST API) and I need to reduce that time.


I also see this workflow being a simple daily backup tool for ArcGIS online.

 

Thanks!

You are already able to use FME to create a file geodatabase, feature datasets, feature classes etc. using the ESRI File Geodatabase writer which is included in this set of pages:

This tutorial should also help:

Your workspace would likely be something very simple involving an ESRI ArcGIS Online Feature Service reader and the file geodatabase writer to output your data to file gdb locally.
