What is the Roadmap to have the same file integrations for Mac Silicon as Mac Intel?

Unfortunately FME 2025 for Mac Silicon is still missing some file format integrations. What is the roadmap to get a complete collection of formats on the ARM plattform? I have had to resort to running an Intel version of FME on my Mac in order to be able to read File GDB and 2DPDF. (I don’t get to choose my source formats...). But it would be great to utilize the machines full potential, after all it was many years since Mac had an Intel in their line up. Previous discussion on the subject with more missing formats mentioned:

Arcpro 3.1 to ArcPro 3.3 breaks python: import fmeobjects

Using FME 2025 and ArcPro 3.1.7 and the python environment located in C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3, (3.9.16) the python code below works. Using FM 2025, and ArcPro 3.3.5 and the python environment C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3 (3.11.8), it fails to load the necessary DLLs when importing fmeobjects and crashes. Switching back to ArcPro 3.1.7 it works again. Can anyone help me import fmeobjects using ArcPro 3.3.5? What am I missing? import osimport sys os.environ['PATH'] = r'C:\Program Files\FME' + os.pathsep + os.environ['PATH'] sys.path.append(r'C:\Program Files\FME\python') try: import fmeobjects print(dir(fmeobjects)) runner = fmeobjects.FMEWorkspaceRunner()except ImportError as e: print(f"Error: {e}")

python compatibility error with ESRI Python 3.7+

Hi, I have FME 2023.0.2.1 (64 bit) and ArcGIS Pro 3.1 with Python 3.9.16 installed on my machines. The FME workspaces I run uses Arcpy 3, so I specified the “python compatibility” parameter in the workspace (under scripting) as “Esri ArcGIS Python 3.7+” and the “Preferred Python Interpreter” under FME options - Translation as “Esri ArcGIS Python 3.9”. This setting works for all other machines (incl. local and VM) except one machine. With one machine, I get this python compatibility error: ERROR : A compatible ArcGIS application could not be found or is not licensed for Python Compatibility 'Esri ArcGIS Python 3.7+' The strange thing is, if I set the python compatibility parameter as Esri ArcGIS Python 3.9 with this machine, it works just fine. The only difference I can think of is maybe the normal python 3.11.4 which is also installed on this machine. Maybe this is somehow interrupting when FME is searching for python...? The problem is that I am calling many FME workspaces in one work

Log message filter missing from FME Form 2024.2.3?

In earlier versions of FME desktop/form i was able to filter log messages from options → translation → log settings. I know i can disable them in traslation log but we used those settings to control if server/flow logged warning messages. We have process that creates massive amounts of unnecessary warning messages that generates gigabytes of logs. Log message filter option doesn’t seem to be available anymore? Is it moved some other place? FME 2024 FME 2022

Qgis python

Hey, I’ve been trying to get FME (Feature Manipulation Engine) by Safe Software to use Python libraries from QGIS (like qgis.core) so I can mix their cool features in my temp.fmw workspace. The idea is to use QGIS’s Python (version 3.9) inside FME by setting it up with PowerShell commands. But it’s not working, and here’s why, explained like I’m talking to a 5-year-old and then a bit more grown-up: The Toy Box Story (Simple Version) Imagine Python is a kid who needs toy helpers to do jobs—like QGIS toys (for maps) and FME toys (for data tricks). These toys are called DLLs (little helper files). I want Python to borrow toys from both QGIS’s toy box and FME’s toy box at the same time. Step 1: I told Python, “Look in QGIS’s box (C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.32.0\apps\Python39) and FME’s box (C:\Program Files\FME\python)!” That’s like setting PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH.Step 2: Python found some QGIS toys (like qgis.core), but then it yelled, “Where’s my Qt5Core.dll toy? I can’t play!” It’s like

Intermittent problems connecting to ArcGIS Enterprise

How to work around an ssl-verification error when using the ESRI Portal reader

Hello all, At a client I often fail to connect to their ESRI Portal, due to failing to verify SSL (see loggin below) on both FME Server and desktop. Proxy settings in FME don't change the behaviour (always uses proxy). The Chrome browser thinks the certificate is o.k. I can't disable ssl-verification in the Portal Reader, as suggested in the log, like it is possible to do in the HTTPCaller.. (see my idea for that). Inspired by this reported problem I exported the certificate from Chrome, and imported it in $FME_HOME\jre\lib\security\cacerts on desktop.. (analogue to these instructions for server, section .pfx certificate, as the problematic server has a .pfx certificate). This did not resolve the problem... Does anyone have any suggestions??? Kind regards, Martin ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader: Using proxy http://proxy.####.intern:8080/ ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader: Using authentication type 'NTLM'ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader: Logging into 'https://geoportaal.####

Scaling tree models for Cesium

Hello, I have a csv-file with the position of trees and additional information like the height of the trees. Further I have a sketchup model of a tree which I want to place at the position of each tree and scale it using the height of the trees. I can manage all steps from the different files, but not the scaling of the trees. If I use the example from https://hub.safe.com/publishers/con-terra-lab/templates/citygml-create-solitaryvegetationobject-with-implicit-representation and export the workbench to CityGML, the scale of each tree is right. If I want to export my data to Cesium tiles, the scaling is missing. Where can I set the scaling of the tree models for a proper output to Cesium? Thanks in advance and best regards, Andreas

Extract adress data from citygml and pass to Cesium tiles

Hello, i have a citygml-dataset and try to convert it to cesium tiles. In a citygml-dataset, a building consists of different parts like roof, wall, … Within the conversion to cesium tiles, i want to “combine” the parts to one building, so that the building is clicklable as one unit in my cesium. Additionally, I want to extract parts of the adress out of citygml to user attributes, which are displayed in cesium with a click on the building. In FME, I already can merge all parts of a building to one set using a FeatureMerger in combination with the gml_parent_id. At the moment, I stuck in extracting the adress-information out of the xml-part of citygml_adress. Has anyone an idea how to manage this? Thanks in advance! Best regards.

Data Interoperability & paramaters

Using Data Interoperability in ArcGIS Pro - Is there a way to pass attribution from selected features in a map/table to the ETL tool? Edit--Use Scenario: A data editor using a map in ArcGIS PRO selects a feature or multiple features. The globalids of the selected features are then passed onto the ETL toolbox and subsequently, the FME workspace performs a translation with just the selected features.

Can FME Write ArcGIS Enterprise Attachments

Hi Everyone, Looking for some assistance, I’m using FME 2023.1.0.0 trying to migrate some existing Survey-123 forms and data with attachments from ArcGIS On-Line to our new Enterprise portal. Our survey-123 form has a singular photos field for tracking a picture of the bus stop, it also has a repeatable photo’s field (table) where the inspector is able to take and attach multiple deficiency photos to the stop if one exists. In FME, I’m able to read in the AGOL feature service that hosts all of the survey information, I’m also able to write out the tabular information from the point layer to the new Enterprise feature layer that was created when I saved the Survey-123 form in Enterprise. The part that I’m currently struggling with is getting the singular photos to attach when writing the tabular information out to the Enterprise feature service so when I view the points in ArcGIS Pro, they appear in the attachments tab of the attributes editor like they currently do with my AGOL service

Oauth 2.0 token ESRI - not refreshing the token

Dear community, I have implemented a workflow with FME and ArcGIS Enterprise, in which an automation is triggered in FME via a referenced feature service with a webhook. Based on the entries in the ArcGIS Field Maps App, an e-mail is then to be sent via FME. This is set up accordingly according to the following documentation: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407414850061-Integrating-ArcGIS-Enterprise-Feature-Service-Webhooks-With-FME The connection from the application in ArcGIS Enterprise to FME is also set up accordingly: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407772142733-How-to-Create-an-ArcGIS-Enterprise-Portal-Web-Connection-OAuth-2-0 The problem that arose is that the OAuth refresh token created in ArcGIS Enterprise has a default lifetime of 2 weeks and I therefore have to authorize myself every 2 weeks (see https://enterprise.arcgis.com/de/portal/latest/administer/windows/specify-the-default-token-expiration-time.htm).

I tried asking our Azure admins to test the web connection using their admin account and it goes thru. After saving the web connection and testing it on the sharepoint connector transformer it fails to load any sites and just throws an “unknow error”.
