We are working for a client that has a test domain and a production domain. Servers in test cannot reach servers on production and vice versa. There is currently an installation of ProjectWise (PW) installed in both domains, but the test version is a minimal installation that lacks WSG being setup and configured whereas the deployment on production has everything, currently.

Our task is to setup a process that will use FME Flow to retrieve DGNs from PW and use them elsewhere. We currently have an FME Flow installation on the client’s test domain and are trying to approximate the workflow that we will have available to us in production. However, for the moment at least, it appears that WSG being installed is a core requirement for reaching PW with FME. We have other methods for users to place files where the test FME Flow server can reach them, but I would like to know if there is a workaround that can get us to our final goal prior to putting it in the production domain.

Any help is appreciated!
