Shape the future of FME with your ideas
Open ideas have been reviewed by our Product Management and are open for commenting and voting.
Often in enterprise environments you'll have functional mail boxes.These mail boxes are accessed with different user names, so these are not the INBOX folder for the account they are accessed by.Another use case:You are already doing some filtering on IMAP server side, maybe moving mails under certain conditions from INBOX to another IMAP folder.Please add a setting for "Folder to monitor" to the IMAP trigger.
***Note from Migration:*** Original Title was: Support for terrascan Fast Binary pointcloud format (in FME old terrascan format is already supported)
Has anyone looked at creating an OCAD reader? OCad is used worldwide for creating orienteering maps and has well defined symbol sets for urban and non-urban settings. The ability to create a 3D world from this data would be a great training tool.
It would be nice to be able to multiple select failed FME jobs and batch resubmit from the 'Jobs' page - rather than having to manually go into each job and resubmit individually.
In FME cloud/server it would be great to have a trigger event for an AGOL directory watch. So if a feature service is modified it would trigger an FME script to run.
Add an option to allow users to share items (Automations, Schedules, Repositories and Projects) which have been shared with them (i.e. they do not own the item). I expected this functionality to be granted with the "Full Access" option and was surprised that it wasn't.
When you have a bookmark inside another bookmark, the Bookmark Navigator doesn't list the bookmarks inside the outer bookmark (see the attached image). I suggest that the Bookmark Navigator also would list the bookmarks inside other bookmarks. This is useful when dealing with large workspaces with many nested bookmarks.
It would be excellent if in FME Server's web interface we could upload our custom grid shift files, and FME Server would handle placing the files in the multiple locations required to support CSMapReprojector and ESRIReprojector (and any other of reprojector configuration)
The filter section is fixed on all grid components on the server, please allow users to be able to configure filters so that users can add extra filtering criteria on the pages.e.g. Filter for Micro queue on the completed jobs list.
I would like to retrieve the Configuration part using FME REST API V3 of Filename (Existing) parameter.As of right now, it seems impossible: Can we have this missing element in the next FME REST API ?Thanks
Currently ( at least on FME Server 2017), when you grant access to data resource to a user, the user can see all of the data -- related and not related to his/ her project. This poses a security risk when sharing FME SERVER externally.
***Note from Migration:*** Original Title was: FME Inspector - is it poslible to have a zoom to exact scale (1:10, 1:100, 1:1000, ... )
It would be great to have the ability to select multiple transformer connections and 'bulk' convert them to tunnels. This would save a lot of clicking
Add the ability to add a custom translation message on the FME Server web interface after a translation is successful or failed. On FME Desktop I use startup/shut-down scripts to parse the log file and collect statistics that bring up a pop-up window to show the user info. It would be nice to be able to add this information directly to the page after a workspace is ran by an end user.
FME Server allows you to configure Version Control to a remote git repository however it only supports URLs/Access Tokens from GitHub. Please consider adding support for Version Control to AWS CodeCommit.
Hi everybody, I would like to be able to share a common list of publish parameters accross several workspaces.For instance, use the same 10 published parameters name within 66 workspaces. And update new name easily.To do so, I though to make a list of these 10 parameters name in a txt file (could be any format) and to read this list in all of my 20 workspaces.I will then compare this list with one of the current workspace parameter. I will use the FME workspace reader to get a list of the current parameters. The comparison of these two lists will allow to dynamically know which publish parameters are already within the workspace. Then I only miss to have a FME workspace writer to create, on the fly, the missing parameters.I hope you will find this idea useful, and that you will vote for it :)All the best,Aurélien
With FME Server 2018 being able to assign users mail addresses (for password recovery) and FME Server 2017+ being able to pull an mail address from the ActiveDirectory (the FME Server Admin UI already exposes this) it would be really nice to expose this as FME Server Parameter in workspaces, e.g. $(FME_SECURITY_USER_MAIL).This would allow scenarios like sending mails after a process to an user which authenticated via SSO without to publish/request the mail address from the user (e.g. webform field).
Make folder Size visible on FME Server and FME Cloud in the WebGUI. Usefull to find large folders.
Allow us a way to re-assign ownership of a Workspace in FME Server through the UI. This would be really nice to be able to do when folks who "own" the workspace move on or retire.
Hi, is it an idea to have readers read through a .msg (MicroSoft Outlook) file? Say, there is a mail file with an .xls attachment in it. We could select the .msg file for the Excel reader and it reads all .xls attachments without having to open the msg, save all attachments to disk and than create the Excel reader to read the stored attachments? I have a bunch (like 365 or so) e-mail reports from webfleet that all contain 1 xls file with travelreports that I want to analyze.
Hello Safe,would it be possible to configure a data download service to not zip the result if there is only one file?In many use cases only one file is created but the user still needs to download and extract the zip file, which for most users is an unnecessary step.Data downloads without a zip archive could also be used as an asynchronous data streaming service where the client needs to parse the result to display information. Especially for longer lasting processes, this would be nice. Right now I'm often running into timeouts in various infrastructures if a data streaming process takes too long. For example, the default request-timeout for the Azure Application Gateway is 20 seconds.Best regardsDennis
For those that authored a Workspace the Parameters may seem straight forward. However, when a Workspace is published to FME Server for varying parties to use, it would be of great use to be able to apply a Parameter Description/Tool Tip. The description could be placed under the selection/input window for the parameter and/or a Tool Tip of the description could be displayed when the mouse pointer is hovered over the Parameter.
***Note from Migration:*** Original Title was: FME Server Job Logs: Indicate when the job was resubmitted due to FME Engine crash When a translation crashes an FME Engine, it is resubmitted up to (the default) three times before it is reported as failed. There is no indication in the resultant Job log that it had been resubmitted - this would be very useful information in case further investigation into the cause is needed.
When I download a workspace from the Server to fix something, the Republish button is disabled so I have to go through the Publish to FME Server wizzard instead of a single Republish click.It would be nice to have an active Republish to FME Server button after downloading a workspace which works as a single click if there is no problem (eg: no associated files and linked transformers) or warns/changes to Publish if there is a conflict.
GUI warning on FME Server when "Optimizing memory" occurs. Also some other important "badges": - Running time - Max RAM usage - Max CPU USAGE: I can not upload an image to this post? So here is a link to the example: https://imgur.com/a/o9JlW
