SharePoint Online List Writer error - Python Exception <TypeError>: unhashable type: 'dict'

Up until 4/12, my workspace was writing to a SP list normally. It reads data from SQL and updates the SP list to match any changes. After someone changed the name of a SP column on the 12th, the workflow errored - but after the change was reverted, it still errored. The first line with the Python Exception was not in the original error when the column name was changed:Python Exception <TypeError>: unhashable type: 'dict'SHAREPOINT writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for detailsFeatureJoiner_2_JOINED_-1_35_Player (RecorderFactory): SHAREPOINT writer: A fatal error has occurred.

Custom FME Transformer implemented in Java

Hello everyone, I am trying to write a custom FME transformer using the FME Plug-in SDK with Java. I installed the FME Plug-in SDK and successfully followed the steps of the Java tutorial document (after installing the SDK, the tutorial document is located at '<FME>\pluginbuilder\samples\doc\FMEPlugInSDK_Java.pdf'; I attached it to this posting; especially section 4 "Installing and Testing a Transformer" is relevant to my question; ). In section 4 of this document the custom transfomer defined in file 'CenterOfMassCalculator_Java.fmx' is installedafter installing, the FME workspace '..\java\test\function_test.fmw' is run which contains the 'CenterOfMassCalculator_Java' transformer as second element in the translation flow Eventually, running 'function_test.fmw' in the FME workbench results in that the method 'execute(.)' of the Java class '<FME>\pluginbuilder\samples\java\com\mycompany\myfunction\center.java' is executed. I am able to attach with the debugger of my IDE and

(Integer) values of constants in Python API FME

Today I was helping one of the users in my organisation with some code in a PythonCaller. The value returned by fmeobjects.FMEFeature.getAttributeType — Python FME API FME 2023.0 b23309 documentation (safe.com) is an integer. The list of possible values is defined by the list of constants here Features — Python FME API FME 2023.0 b23309 documentation (safe.com) What I am missing is which constant represents which integer value. Are these available somewhere? This would have been helpful understanding me and my user what was happening.

ArcGIS portal feature service reader - type 4, Number: 1, Message: Failed to get auth...error

I've followed this article https://community.safe.com/s/article/How-to-create-an-FME-Web-Connection-for-Esri-ArcGIS-Portal-Feature-Service-OAuth-2-0Initially I was able to read features. I've come back into the workspace after a week and I'm getting this error Type: 4, Number: 1, Message: Failed to get authorization query string.Updating access token for 'WebServiceSanDiego'JSON Error: refresh_token expiredUnable to update access token for 'WebServiceSanDiego'I've re-tested by webservice by going to preferences, manage service and test (requires you to login), but it's still not working. I would assume I'd only have to set this up once and it would refresh itself going forward, or is this something configuration wise on the portal end? Note, this is something setup for us to connect to by a customer. Is there a more ideal suggestion for ongoing integration? Read/Write

What certificate is the Kafka connector looking for?

I am trying to set up a KafkaConnector to read from a topic. For the SSL certificate, I provide a keystore that I've used to connect through OffsetExplorer, but it is unable to retrieve the topics. Does FME expect a different type of certificate? I get the following error: An error was encountered while retrieving existing topics: 'Failed to create admin client: ssl.ca.location failed: error:0B084088:x509 certificate routines:X509_load_cert_crl_file:no certificate or crl found'.

How do I write a json file for each time window when working with data stream?

I want to write a different json file for every time window defined in my TimeWindower.To make things simple I'm using the window number as the window ID attribute (when I manage to make it work like this I'll use the window start time).I want to write the data in each time window into a different (json) file and to name them I want to use the window id attribute together with some other string.Right now the first file (string_0) is output as expected but the workspace will only output 2 json files for a total of 4 time windows (I used a terminator after the 4th time window) and the second one is not properly closed.Any idea of what am I doing wrong?

How can I get the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader to read the GlobalID without reformatting or changing the case of the GlobalID values?

In a Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service that we are processing some of the GlobalID's are in lower case without the culry brackets. When FME reads these GlobalID's the case is being changed and brackets are added. Hence the GlobalID "26565f7e-615f-43a6-8333-e156adc7cb46" is read by FME as "{26565F7E-615F-43A6-8333-E156ADC7CB46}". One problem comes about when FME can't update this feature using the GlobalID because FME as reformatted the GlobalID. This problem is verified by using FME to change the case of the GlobalID to lower case and removing the curly brackets which then allows the feature update to occur. My question is, how can I get the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader to read the GlobalID's without reformatting?

Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer, (Features Per Request parameter) yields to inconsistent INSERT behavior

I'm trying to bulk insert features (Append) data (basically merge databases content) to existing destination Feature Service using the FME_ArcGIS_Portal web authentication for web service. I noticed that the Features Per request parameter has an odd behavior, and I can't seem to control/change that physically on ArcGIS Enterprise side.

The trigger results in succesfully starting a job on FME Flow, but the response is most of the time the following:502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server.It looks like this only happens when the job takes longer than 2 minutes. Does anyone have an idea where the 502 response comes from? This indicates an error while in fact the job is started as expected. Version 2022.2Build 22765 - win64

Has anyone had experience populating a data lineage system with information from workspaces in FME Server?

I am researching options for a GIS data catalog and data lineage system. There are some GIS data catalog tools out there (Ex. Voyager) but they lack a method to store the ETL lineage information. For example, I'd want to map that the Streets feature class in my Oracle geodatabase is sync'd to an AGOL feature layer named "City Streets" every night at 3AM. Some of the data lineage tools on the market can connect to ETL applications (Informatica, Azure Data Factory, etc.) and scan them to get source/target information from all the tasks configured in the system. I haven't seen Safe/FME show up as being supported by any of these products. So I'm curious if anyone's come across a product that can scan for this stuff. Alternatively there's always manually populating these systems by reviewing all the FME Server job logs and investigating source/targets in the workspaces.

Error publishing a SLPK on ArcGIS Portal with ArcGISOnlineConnector. Publishing fails.

Hi there,I'm trying to Update a Scene Layer in ArcGIS Portal for Enterprise. While I'm able to delete the existing Scene Layer, update the existing Scene Layer Package and sharing it, the step of publishing fails. The error Message is: PUBLISH_ERRORThere was an error while publishing the item: ERROR 000800: The value is not a member of SHAPEFILE | CSV | SD | SERVICEDEFINITION | FEATURECOLLECTION | FEATURESERVICE | MAPSERVICE | FILEGEODATABASE | SQLITEGEODATABASE | SCENEPACKAGE | GEOPACKAGE | GEOJSON | TILEPACKAGE | VECTORTILEPACKAGE | EXCEL | COMPACTTILEPACKAGE.

Issues creating a new web connection to ArcGIS Enterprise portal.

ArcGIS Enterprise Portal: Fail to update layer with Change Detector

Hello all,I am trying to update a feature layer on the ArcGIS Enterprise Portal.I have the feature layer and an Excel I'm using for the updated information. The change detector detects the one change I've added to my test version but when I try to update the online layer I get this error message: "ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: 'updateResults' error for a feature in 'C1_Cluster_Flurstueck'. The error code from the server was '10500' and the message was: 'Cannot convert a value of type 'java.lang.String' to 'INTEGER'.'" The values that I'm trying to update in the excel and in the layer are both text fields and not numerical hence I dont understand where the integer part is coming from. Can someone tell me if I'm using the right transformers and what I should change to make it work? Thanks in advance! (I'm fairly new to FME so any help regarding the workspace is appreciated)

Copy file from local source to PC by file name

I have a table including some file name and I was wondering if ther is a transformer or work flow can read the file name from the table and download them from the local server to my computer.

Resolving Domain Issues when Accessing PostGIS instead of sde+ XML help

Due to certain circumstances, primarily due to a limitation within ESRI, I find myself in the situation where I must retrieve data from my database not directly via the sde reader, but rather indirectly through the postGIS reader. Despite encountering various challenges along the way, I managed to surmount these obstacles. However, the primary issue I currently face involves the resolution of domains in my output. Naturally, the postGIS reader does not offer an immediate solution for this matter. My consideration was to take an alternate route, yet I am encountering difficulties here as well. My proposed approach involves extracting information from the domain tables and subsequently configuring it using AttributeManager. Regrettably, I am unable to locate the domain tables within postGIS. I hold the belief that these tables must exist within the postGIS setup, albeit their exact location eludes me. Any form of assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your
