Can FME be used to produce heat maps?  Kind of like this:  http://www.openheatmap.com/  I have about 20 million points and I would like to show where the hotspots are.

Referring to this: https://openai.com/blog/introducing-gpts I'd love to see a GPT fed with FME's documentation - also the Python API It's be great to have FME's built in AI tools use something like that to give more FME specific answers? Just an idea 

Attempting to read a layer via a Feature Service on Portal. As I am the owner I have the relevant permissions to access the layer, and it also has relevant editing permissions. This is confirmed by being able to edit the layer in Portal itself. However, when attempting to read in the layer I am met with the error in the question title. I can successfully connect to our portal, and even the Feature Service using the reader - it just fails when attempting to select the layer. See below:I should add that the log does not provide any useful information. Appreciate that this could be rooted in Portal configuration but any guidance much appreciated!

We have a custom python package project sitting in an azure repo, with build pipelines. This python package can be built on multiple python versions 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 with the help of the Hatch third party package. One of the pipelines produces an .whl artifact for the project, can this be used to install the python package locally on any machine, and simply point FME to this package? I don't really know all the intricacies associated with this approach, if it is possible can you please take me through the steps to achieve this or point me in the direction of a detailed article, any help will be appreciated

How to access ADO work-items from FME ? I explored different ways like providing personal Access Token, Username password but it is giving Status code 203 Non-Authoritative Information

Hi, I'm trying to create a connection with my enterprise ESRI account, but only have the option to enter a username and password, when I can only connect to this account via SSO. Any idea how to work around this? I have set up a web connection to my ESRI account but it doesn't automatically connect to the map service through this.

We're trying to create a near-live view of our data, differing from the majority of content on our ArcGIS Enterprise which comes via registered Feature Services (source - Oracle database). We're unable to update the production dataset more often than the current weekly schedule due to internal constraints. We're aware that FME can update a Hosted Feature Layer but can it update a non-hosted Feature Service? I.e. one which is being referenced from a database via an SDE?

This workspace is meant to upload salesforce data into our Snowflake account. I created a connection With Snowflake and have my account name as the parameter. When I run the workspace, it gets all the way to the end with no errors but says that the transformation failed. My coworker runs the same workspace (connected to their own Snowflake account, both are under the same company mother account) and it works and uploads the data to Snowflake. I have not found any similar issues while searching online. What could be the issue?

I have been googling/trying to read about it but I dont seem to understand it too well. I dunno if I am trying to do something I cant. I am trying to use the UK Gov website (https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/check-council-tax-band/search) to search for council tax bands with a list of post codes. But the box to search the postcode sends the request and it appears to encrypt the postcode in the URL. Would it be possible to make it fill in this box and hit search? Appreciate any help as I am completely out of the loop here, never used the HTTP part of FME much. Cheers Also apologies if I have posted this in the wrong place!

Does anyone have a solution how I can decode a Bearer Token?

I am currently struggling to find detailed documentation on how we can add a custom project to FME, and simply use it with PythonCaller's, if anyone knows of a good guide for reference it will be much appreciated.

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>\pluginbui

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.

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 somethi

Hi @daveatsafe​! I am trying to use the Maximo object updater but I am missing the existing object url. Per the documentation I can use the Object Querier the problem is that I cant seem to figure out which attribute to use as there are several url lake attributes. Any thoughts/ guidance that you can provide would be amazing.Thanks so much in advanced.G

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'. Please check host names and ports, security settings, and credentials

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?

Hello!this is a long shot, but I hope I might find some help here.Is there a way using FME to write Operational layers to enterprise web maps?If you are familiar, there are widgets, like the Drew, which produces an operational layer, which is actually a temporary layer.I would appreciate any kind of help.Thank you! 

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? 

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. In the snapshot, if I leave the default to 1000, or reduce to 500 features per request it gives two different errors.ERROR |ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: Encountered an unexpected error. The error code from the server was 'None' and the message was: 'Could not access any server machines. Please contact your system administrator.'. Details: 'None' or ERROR |ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: Encountered an unexpected error. The error code from the server was '500' and the message was: 'Unable to complete operation.'. Details: 'No edits ('adds', 'updates', 'delet

Hi FME community, I am trying to start a job on FME Flow from another application by making use of a webhook and a token. 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

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. Failed. I can select the Scene Layer Package in the ArcGISOnline Connector. If I publish the Scene Layer Package, that I uploaded with FME, directly in the Portal, it works fine. A Scene Layer (hosted) is produced. However, if I try it with the ArcGISOnline Connector it fails and produces an empty "Feature Layer (hosted)". I think

I wan to connect to a REST-API with a WebConnection (Token Service), but it doesn't work with the paramters i use. The same parameter in a HTTPCaller are working. Any Idea whats wrong? The token is assingned to the key "jwt". I use FME 2023.1. Example Settings for the HTTPCallerRequest URL: https:www.test-example.com/backend/api/AUTH/login HTTP Method: POST Headers: Accept text/plain Upload Body: {"email":username@test.com, "password":"12345"} Content Type: JSON (application/json) And the answer looks like (the values are not real) {               "user": {                               "id": "123qw14-a666-222e-777a-a123fg2f12ad",                               "email": "usename@test.com",                               ...               },

Hi everyone, So basically, my workflow has a httpcaller to make an API call and let's say the call returns a text "yes" or "no" but it takes a while for the call to be completed to return "yes".That's why I wanna do a for loop to make the request every 5 mins until "yes" is returned.Please let me know how I can do this or feel free to suggest a better way if possible. Thanks so much!
