PowerPoint to database

Hello,I've got a really challenging question received from a customer !The domain is Heritage buildings protection.An architect/historian evaluates the value of buildings and gives them a mark.He then presents his proposal in a PowerPoint :Identification infoDescriptionMarkLabeletc. PicturesThe proposal is reviewed in several sessions, with different people. The mark may be upgraded or downgraded, the label changed, etc. Once validated, the data is to be captured in an SDE geodatabase. Presently, this is done in two different ways :ManuallyManually copying the data to Excel and it is imported in GDB with FMEBut in both cases, there is a non profit-adding step, which is to manually copy the data.Does anyone out there have an idea how to skip this step ?Could the PowerPoint presentation be structured in such a way (with keywords for instance) that could make the content recognizable and importable directly ?I have thought of different ways but I'd rather keep it open for your inp

Use EWS or Microsoft Graph API to receive and extract attachment from emails from FME Server Fault tolerant deployment?

Hi, We have been trying to set up a process where our users can email their files to a shared mailbox and FME can extract the attachment & process the attachment from emails in our FME server fault tolerant deployment without success as neither STMP nor IMAP option is possible. Our IT tech lead wanted to check if we can use EWS with FME server. I have read an old thread that this can be done through XML & httpCaller but I couldn’t find any further details of how to set this up. I also saw there is the Microsoft Graph API option and wonder if it’s recommended. Our IT Tech lead prefers EWS as we have another application that was already using EWS. Would be much appreciated if you could point me to the right direction.Many thanks!

GeoPDF layer hierarchy

Does FME support writing a hierarchy of layers to GeoPDF? I can't find any documentation on how to do it.

Pandas library not installing for Startup Python Script to run

I am trying to set up the Startup python script to be able to run a process which taps into Smartsheets API and converts it to an excel, which I then separately read into FME and runs through an FME process. I'd like to have the python code run every time before running through the data processing workflow I set up. I have added my python script, set the interpreter to 3.10 and have installed modules into the Documents\\FME\\Plugins\\Python folder using command prompt : C:\\Program Files\\FME>fmeworkbench.exe python -m pip install pandas --target C:\\Users\\vberg2\\Documents\\FME\\Plugins\\Python . It ran and successfully installed pandas, along with a few other modules I installed after. I am however getting this error when I try to run the FME workspace: Python Exception <ModuleNotFoundError>: No module named 'pandas._libs.interval'. When I look into the folder directory, that file is there. Am I missing a step, or did I install pandas incorrectly? Thanks for

Connect to an api that uses a hashed challenge and verifier (PKCE) as part of the oauth2.0 flow?

It seems I have no place to force FME to include the code_verifier parameter in the request body to obtain a token (see requirements below). Any ideas of how to work around this in FME? The postman equivalent is selecting the grant type as "Authorization Code (with PKCE)". I can use the same challenge and verifier more than once, just need to include it in the body rather than a querystring. Per the platform's API docs: Parameters sent in Request Body, Form-URL Encoded. (cannot use JSON or querystring)code=<code received in callback url>client_id=<Application OAuth Client ID>client_secret=<Application OAuth Client Secret>grant_type=authorization_coderedirect_uri=<User redirect URL (from step 4)>code_verifier=<User Generated Code Verifier>

How to read from a historic moment for an archived dataset using the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service reader?

I have a requirement to read from a service that is published to ArcGIS Portal but I need to read from a historic moment based on the last run time of my workspace. If I were able to access the database directly, I could query the archive tables. However, I need a solution that will read the service. There is an idea which requests this functionality, but so far, this doesn't appear to have been implemented. Is there a workaround for this? I'm using 2022.2.2

Invalid geometry (INVALID_CLIPPEE_GEOMETRY) passes GeometryValidator

I am using the clipper to clipp some polygons. It failed with the rejection for 3 features as INVALID_CLIPPEE_GEOMETRY. But when i run the same rejected features through GeometryValidator with issues to detect "all" the same features pass. Resolution is in meter. Node 0 and 1 are almost identical which causes the rejection i believe. But how can I setup FME to catch this duplicate of nodes ? 0: 575677.0999999503, 7032470.9899999991: 575677.0999999512, 7032470.9900000012: 575683.7099999504, 7032482.7799999963: 575677.0999999503, 7032470.989999999

How do you setup an authenticated websocket

How do you setup an authenticated websocket? We have a websocket that we need to connect to and then transform the data in FME. The connection is an authenticated one, the behaviour is attempt connection to the destination and port, the socket server then expects an a string as authentication. How do we send this in FME? Preference is to use a notification or an automation. Don't want to use a transformer as tis requires an extra engine I believe.

Copy measures from existing line to neighbouring lines.

The main goal of my question is to assign measures to neighbouring lines. The black line has measures which i would like to assign to the red lines. I have tested for one line only and thus tried using the LineOnLineOverlayer and set a tolerence level of 10, the positive thing is the neighbouring whole line gets assigned measures, however some vertices remined snapped to the blackline(the one with measures),still trying to figure out why.The idea is1.) I assign measures to the red lines(A,B,C,D) from the black line, 2.) How do i vary the tolerance so that all the lines get captured.Any ideas will come quite handy. Thanks,Keller.

Read FeatureReaders/Writers from all FME Server workspaces via FME REST API or some other way.

We would like to inventory our FME Server on all input and output data from our database. We have setup a workspace that calls the FME REST API and reads all input/output, but there is no way to read other transformers as it seems. Is there a way to read FeatureReaders/Writers from all the workspaces in FME Server somehow? Also we would like to get a list of pythoncallers and systemcallers etc.

FME Desktop Esri Edition with ArcGIS Desktop licensing requirements when running on a VM in a remote network

Hi! I’ve recently installed and licensed FME Desktop Esri Edition (on 32Bit) on a VM within an isolated network. I need to use the ArcSDE Geodb Reader of FME, to have access to Network and Relationship information, and as a pre-requisite I’ve also installed the ArcGIS Desktop (by default on 32Bit). I have not yet licensed the ArcGIS Desktop that I’ve installed along with the FME. Still, I can call and start to configure the ArcSDE Geodb Reader.My goal is to connect to several ArcGIS VMs within the same isolated network. I’ve received a bunch of .sde database connection files that I’ve used in the configuration of the ArcSDE Geodb Reader. I do not know exactly if these VMs that I’m trying to connect to are running just a database or have ArcGIS software installed and licensed as well (like ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Server). I have little knowledge about the ArcGIS architecture. I know that there are several ArcGIS models dispersed on a bunch of VMs.My problem occurs in the set-up of the Ar

FTPCaller won't upload file with double extension e.g. "file.csv.gz"

Hi we are trying to use the ftpcaller to upload a file to an SFTP server. We can upload the file successfully with the filename "file12345666.gz" When we try to upload the file with the filename "file.csv.gz" it does not upload successfully. We have debug logging turned on and logs look like it appears to upload successfully, and the file size is correct but it simply does not appear on the remote server. It seems to be a bug with the ftpcaller. Anyone noticed this or have a work around at all?

FME AR display objects below the plane (Android)

I am wanting to display underground infrastructure using FME AR, but have been unable to have the app display an object below the horizontal plane.The model will always end up placed ON the plane, with the feature in the model with the lowest Z coordinate determining the vertical position of the rest of the features. This question was asked 2 years ago, but there was no good answer. Manually offsetting an object in the model downwards causes it to display at ground level, which offsets everything else upwards by the same amount. I know displaying things below ground is possible (on iOS), thanks to Dmitri Bagh's tutorial and workspace here for creating virtual holes: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/augmented-holes-how-see-under-ground-dmitri-bagh/ (He links the workspace template for download in the youtube comments) I am using the current Android app, and I suspect that is the issue. I used Dmitri's workspace manhole example, reproduced the .fmear model, and when viewed in the F

Upload to SFTP goes missing?

Hi Community. I am putting together a workbench to upload specific (Plan) files to a SFTP and while I was there I thought I'd add in to download a list of existing files, match them against the options to upload and add/remove only what is necessary. So in summary:Get list of plans on network drive (file and path directory reader). Success!Filter plan name against spatial file (determines if plan is needed or not). Success!Download list of plans currently on the SFTP (FTP caller with SSH-Authentication). Success!Filter needed plan names against plan names already existing on SFTP. Success!Delete plan files from SFTP no longer needed (FTP caller with SSH-Authentication). Success!Upload plan files to SFTP that are needed (FTP caller with SSH-Authentication). No success yet. I'm happy to upload the template file I'm just not sure that will assist without the keys needed to access the SFTP (can't give these out).

API call failing due to two way authentication, but can access URL through web browser

I am using the username password in the HTTP caller that is used to access the sharepoint in the web browser, but is it not working. The workbench is running on the server, which has another set of authentication, and I am not sure if that is the reason why I am unable to access the API though FME, while I can through the browser. Can you please provide some solution or workaround for this?

Does FTPCaller provide a method for using OpenSSH key files?

Hi There, so our IT Department is now implementing a 'no password' policy with using our organization's (s)ftp sites. WinSCP does provide a method to use the key file generated by OpenSSH (please see attached screengrab)...but I can not see a method for leveraging this file in FME's FTPCaller...is this true? (so no way to do this in FME?). Thanks for any thoughts here.

I've been try to move spatial data from File Geodatabase to Google BigQuery (GCP) and keep betting an error message in regards to "Failed to retrieve feature types". Does any have any experience in how to resolve this?

I have FME Desktop 2022.2 and have pre-installed the Google BigQuery FME Package 1.1.1. I've been trying to move some spatial data from File Geodatabase to Google BigQuery (in Google Cloud Platform). This was working around 3 months ago (back in August 2022), but then after Google changed their authorisation process in September 2022, for some strange reason FME Desktop refused to move any data into Google BigQuery. Below is a snapshot of the error I get in FME Desktop when creating the Google BigQuery Writer. I've already authorised my GCP account using the FME Options >> Web Connections, so not sure what more I need to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
