Integration

Good morning to all. I hope that you are staying safe and doing well. Below is my problem.I am trying to capture the user log in(Username) and pass it to the process so that I can associate the data with a user downstream. For this I set my User name: FME_Security_User. I thought that this was simple, but when I run the process, regardless of the user, FME Server is passing the value of the process owner to the process instead of the actual user log in.Any thoughts? Advice? Thank you in advance

HiIam working on a script that should run on FME server. The user adds an excel file that contains coordinates (x column and y column) the problem is that the column names can change, therefore I need to let the user specify from a drop down list the (x - column) and the (y - column). Is this possible?  

I am writing XDATA out on line and point (no blocks) features in the AutoCAD Writer. In the Translation Log FME is dynamically creating layers and then throws the following warning right after noting creation of the "V-SITE-EWAT-" layer: "Dynamically creating layer `V-SITE-TANK' Dynamically creating layer `V-SITE-EWAT-' Further instances of this message will be suppressed Regapp on feature is not defined within template. Check that the Regapp name exists in the template, or remove extended entity list data ... Last line repeated 9 times ... Further instances of this message will be suppressed"   I am creating a new file with the writer (not using a template), and my understanding is that FME registers the XDATA under app name "ACAD."  Randomly checking a few entities in AutoCAD shows that the output data seem to have all of the XDATA intact, so I am mystified about this warning. Assuming that an entity on layer V-SITE-EWAT- was triggering the warni

Hello, a newbie to FME server. Hope I can get some help here. Here are questions. 1. Where is the Security (users, groups, etc) info stored in the FME server directory? 2. Is it possible to get this info from the REST endpoint?Thanks for your help,

Hi,  I'm using HTTPCaller to upload files to an online project management system. It all works great but the file names containing "öäå" are substituted with strange looking "?" symbols. Everything seems fine up until the HTTPCaller that does the multipart/form-data upload.   Is there a way to fix this in the workflow or is it more likely to be a problem on the upload site?   Thanks!

Revit to Cesium, what are the steps?

Hello  I am trying to add the ESRI web connection but there isn't a choice on my version of FME. I am not able to update to the latest version of software, is there a resource to reference?

Hi guys,I developed a solution for a client to prepare locators by using ArcPy module. In 32 bit it's working fine.But the client use a FME Server 2017 64 bit. I tested the solution with in 64 bit and now I have an issue with an ArcPy function.Python Exception <ExecuteError>: ERROR 001269: Compressing the service definition failed.Failed to execute (StageService).The function is arcpy.StageService_server. I did some research on web and the only solution I found it's to run it in 32 bit. But like I said before, the client uses FME Server 64 bit. Any one have a solution for this situation?Regard,Jean

I have noticed that there is a difference between Android and iPhones when zooming in on the map using the satellite view. Using an Android phone, I can zoom in further than on an iPhone. Is this expected behaviour?  Being that FME Data Express uses Google maps, I'm not sure if this is a iPhone/Google maps issue or a FME Data Express issue.

Hello, I have an Autocad Tool catalog file (ATC file) used by the AutoCAD design and documentation CAD software and am looking for help with reading this file using an FME transformer.The underlying structure of the file is in XML but I have not seen any XML-defined schema to be to read the file in FME.Looking for help in this area.

I am a GIS engineer who wants to learn how to access data via API. I have tested a bit and managed to connect to simple APIs. Now trying to connect to a Swagger API and can't get the token to connect to the API. I have received a key and can access via website if I enter code under Authorize. I want to connect to the API using FME, but do not know how to access the token code. Can anybody help me?

Screenshots for how I filled out the parameters below. I have my organization's custom URL listed for host, my username, password, and security token listed. When I try to populate the table list, I get the error seen below. I know my 'API Enabled' setting in salesforce is true. I also get this error text occasionally: "Failed to obtain any schemas from reader 'SALESFORCE' from 1 datasets. This may be due to invalid datasets or format accessibility issues due to licensing, dependencies, or module loading. See logfile for more information" Is there some other setting or access problem I'm having on the salesforce side? I read through the documentation and there isn't anything glaringly wrong.

I'm trying to write to an ArcGIS Portal Feature Service but I don't see it in the list of available services when setting up the writer. I don't own the layer but it is shared with the entire organization allowing write capabilities to all. It doesn't belong to any groups. Strangely, I can see layers in groups to which I don't even belong. I am connecting using a web connection that uses OAuth. Am I missing something? Bug? I'm using FME Desktop 2020.1.2.1 (Build 20624 WIN64).

I have two iPhone's and loaded the same model. The FME AR app on one iPhone shows the model with a lot of strange artifacts and the icon's are missing. What can could be the cause? Both version 1.6.0.

I have a workspace that I've published out as a server app. This allows users to select an area on a map, select layers that they would like and exports it out to a CAD file that is then emailed to the user as an attachment. Part of the export is a clipped, georeferenced ortho image.  After the dwg is emailed and opened, the image does not show up. You can see a frame and basically a broken reference. I'm assuming that this is part of a CAD limitation in how images are managed, but figured I'd ask, in case someone has figured out how to do this. Is there a way to successfully include an image inside of a CAD drawing and email that drawing without losing the image? Hopefully this makes sense... Thanks! Eugene D.

I am attempting to use FME 2020.1 to update records in a feature service published to ArcGIS Online. I want to be able to set the symbology in ArcGIS Pro and initially create the feature service and symbology via ArcGIS Pro "Create Web Layer" operation. I am able to create the web layer and read with FME, but when I attempt to write to the existing feature layer (using mode INSERT and truncate YES), the translation says it is complete but no features are written in AGOL. UPDATEI seemed to have found the original issue.It appears that, when publishing the web layer from ArcGIS Pro, all feature layers that will be altered by FME need to have a template.I was getting warning 24041: Layer does not have a feature template set when analyzing the map document for publishing and ignoring it.I used the Create All Templates function to quickly add templates to all layers possible.I re-published this new layer with templates, and was successfully able to truncate and insert to the exist

To what extent are users using FME Server to both consume Web Services and Rest API's as well as a mechanism to create and expose Web Services and Rest API's for other software and platforms to consume.This is for both Spatial and Aspatial Data.

Hi, I think I already know the answer that this is not possible, but thought it wouldn't hurt to ask a question here. I am using a FeatureWriter to write data to a DWG file (RealDWG writer) and specified a template where I customized some layers to have the representation I need. However in some cases I need to write features to new layers that won't be in the template and I cannot find any way to pre-set the layer color. The writer has a setting for default layer colors, but it cannot be specified by an attribute or conditional; it just accepts a parameter, which is not useful at all for this type of exercise. I can get close to what I need (since I am using a template) by changing the color etc. for default layers since I'm already controlling specifics via the template DWG, but that only works if I have one style; this breaks down once I have more than 1 layer style. Am I just out of luck on this? Similarly I cannot find a setting to specify the color of a hatch. The DWG

Hello Guys , we installed recently fme server 2021 & we also succesfully installed ssl certificate on fme server  The issue is that :Firstly:I cannot make connection for fme server 2021 from fme desktop 2020.2 version , it gives me authentication error but with the same credential i can login fme server.. what might be the cause ? Secondly:After logging directly to the fme server portal , i was trying to run the sample workspace ..It was also giving me error.. May i know what might be the cause Your guidance is highly appreciated

How do I get the CreationDate of a SourceDataset e.g. "Parks.shp" to a userdefined attribute of every Feature in this Dataset. I tried SystemCaller and TCLCaller but got stuck. 

I am wondering if anyone has successfully connected to D365 API to pull data into SQL Server to create a spatial database based on the lat/long fields we populate in the the D365 application.My IT dept said the directions here are out of date. Does anyone have any suggestions that I can give to my IT people so that I can have this integration set up? Thanks,  https://hub.safe.com/publishers/safe-lab/web-connections/microsoft-dynamics-365I

Hello !I am struggling with IFC files and the extraction of their various propery sets. My goal is -to extract relevant properties for features in a IFC files (property sets depends on the object type in the IFC file and for each object type, there can be multiple property sets), - to attach them to the right features as attribute for a GIS output (not CityGML though, so BIM tutorial to create CityGML are not entirely helpful, I need, unfortunately, a more "basic" format : feature+attributes in one layer). I have looked in the forum and watch some webinars but somehow I am still not clear on how to proceed. I read that the revit reader could help but in my case, many many properties are simply not read, which is understandable since each IFC can be organized in its own way, with as many relations and property sets as one might want. So I need to do this "manually", i.e. create adapted workflows depending on the IFC files. And I do not know how to proceed. So if you

Best method I've come up with below? Looking for any other experienced REST Raster Image Service users to suggest any better solutions on how to get back 1,000s of raster values in an FME Workflow! Use case it to query the Surface Levels of anywhere between 1,000 to 1,000,000 geometric points on a REST ESRI Web Image Service that is a 1 metre DEM raster.The Server does not allow an HTTP EXPORT request of a JPG/PNG image more than 500x500 pixels, so that kind of rules out just pulling it down with HTTPCaller as a single Raster image and then interrogating that as a Workspace Feature.I'm a total novice at using an ESRI REST Image Service, but the "best" method I can so far come up is using the IDENTIFY operation:https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/services-reference/identify-image-service-.htm Each Operation requires the request to have a single pair of X, Y values for a Point ie. Only one raster value at a time can be called for in an HTTPCaller (and then process the

I had to remove the alternative but then I noticed that if the user changed alternatives after starting the service in smallworld it would revert back to the alternative it was in when the service was started... any one got a fix for this?cheers
