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.

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

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?

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

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). The creator/attribute manager are there for testing some of t

Hello FME Folks,I am using FME 2018 (FME(R) 2018.0.1.0 (20180518 - Build 18310 - WIN64) to read SharePoint Reader using Python 3.6 for SharePoint 2013 intranet. The internet has NTLM authentication enabled. I am unable to logon for the SharePoint reader. It is giving me following error: 2023-03-13 09:43:34| 3.3| 0.0|ERROR |Microsoft SharePoint List Reader: Encountered an unexpected response from the server, reproduced below.

Hi, I am trying to connect to my organisation sharepoint to fetch PDF files stored there, but API call is giving 401 error code with the message "An error occurred while accessing the URL". 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?

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 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!  

Hello to all the members of the FME Community!We would like to know if you have any applications or workflows that are currently using the FME Server JavaScript API. It is no secret that we have not prioritized enhancements or upgrades to the library, and, if at some future date we decide to deprecate support of the FME Server JavaScript API, we want to make sure that we have provided alternatives to keep your apps and workflows running when you upgrade. What are you using the FME Server JavaScript API for that you cannot do with the FME Server REST API?We have started development on V4 of the FME Server REST API, and this would be a great opportunity to add new capabilities so that there is a smooth transition path available. What impact would the deprecation of the FME Server JavaScript API have for you and your organization? If there are any questions or concerns, we can start thinking about them now.  Note: Please keep in mind that we do not have a target date to deprecate the FME

I am having trouble with running a workspace with FME Data Express. The workspace is simple, to test out the geometry parameter on mobile, it just returns the coordinates to screen with an html writer, published as fmedatastreaming. The idea is to use it in a scavenger hunt if possible.When I run the workspace with FME Data Express as fmejobsubmitter, it submits the job, and does its thing.When I run the workspace with FME Data Express as fmedatastreaming, the job is never submitted to FME Server. In App I get the popup "Waiting for Data Streaming", which then goes away, and nothing happens. I checked with two colleagues at work, one with android gets the same behaviour as me, one with iOS it submits the datastreaming job correctly. So it may be an issue with the Android app. I don't know how to debug where the error occurs between the app sending(?), and the FME Server not receiving/rejecting(?) the job.We have FME Server 2022.2. I also tested with the Safe demo server i

Using ArcGIS Data Interop extension to build workbenches. We are connecting to an external database to write to and we are experiencing intermittent connection. When testing connection, when it fails we get a timeout error. Same when when we run the workbench. But then sometimes it will connect fine and run the workbench as expected. Anyone else experience this?

We have a custom application that calls and polls telephone numbers using an analog modem on COM1 port. I would like to port this application to FME and I have been unable to find any native transfomers/readers/writer that can communicate with COM Port1. Question:Can FME natively communicate with COM Ports ?If so, how is this done.If not, any suggestions on how to make with work

This week my AutodeskBIM360DocsConnector stopped working and I am no longer able to read data or browse through the hub. It still works fine to authenticate in the web connection. Is there a way to troubleshoot the connection in the transformer? Seems like nothing is logging in the log window cheers

I installed FME Server 2022.2.2 on Windows Server using Express. I told setup to use the wrong* password for Postgres `fmeserver` database user. How do I change the password after the fact, without going through the whole install process again? I know the password is stored in fmeDatabaseConfig.txt in the FME Server installation directory and how to encrypt the password. But that's how to change what FME passes to the db, not what is stored in the db. I need to change both. There is more than one Postgres service and database on this server. * wrong means "differs from our internal standards and documentation".

Hello guys, I am trying to consum a SOAP API to send data from FME desktop but I am getting the HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error. Here is what I did: I have configured the API request in SoapUI copied the xml request and send it the HttpCaller transformer using the XMLTemplater.  I have enabled the authentication option in the HttpCaller and entered the username/password using the basic type.  Thank you in advance.

New to the API world. I am trying to use HTTPCaller to auto-attach a pdf file as a response.I managed to use HTTPCaller to get all requests and auto-generate a response. However, I am unsure how to physically upload the file through the POST method. Here is the link to the API document: Enquiries API (1100.com.au)My HTTPCaller parameters:I keep getting: "HTTPCaller_4 (HTTPFactory): [1]: HTTP transfer error: Stream error in the HTTP/2 framing layer" error code.   

Hello!I connect our Esri Enterprise to my fme workbench and server with the help of the guide here.  But a very strange thing happens: after I close the file, for example at the end of a working day, the connection to the enterprise resets, and the same connection that worked yesterday, no longer works today.So the first time I did the whole process again, and the second time, it doesn't connect at all anymore.Anyone familiar with this problem?

I am trying to access a SOAP service that is password protected. In Soapui I had to set the WSS-Type to PasswordText in order to get the result I wanted. How can I duplicate this in FME desktop?

I am having trouble opening fmear data files on my Samsung A32 cell phone following installation of the FME AR app from the Google Play Store.The Samsung A32 is running Android 12 and “Google Play Services for AR” (ARCore) version 1.35.223110433 dated (16/12/2022) is installed. The version of FME AR that has been installed is V1.4.0 (dated 22/08/2022)I have downloaded the tutorial “Creating FMEAR Datasets from 2D CAD Models" – CreatingFMEARFromCAD.zip and put the fmear files onto my cellphone’s SD card under the documents area.Below is a screen shot of the FMEAR app where it is being run using a white piece of paper for clarity as to what I’m seeing on screen is shown below. I’m not seeing anywhere on screen or in the app settings for where the app is to find the fmear files to open and I would be very grateful if someone could help me and point me in the right direction.
