Automate updating documents on CDE


Badge +5

I am currently updating a number of documents and models on a CDE (currently trying to pull the API information) that require manually logging into the system as an administrator, deleting the files in question and then uploading the updated file.

I wanted to see if there was a way to automate this procedure through an FME workbench?

I suspect if you get the API then this should be pretty doable with the HTTPCaller. You might have to use a few in a row depending on how the authentication works for the server.

 

You can use PostMan to test you queries and then use FME to automate them.

Thanks. The HTTP caller seems to be able to identify each document, but still trying to identify how FME can automate the downloading of these?
