Welcome to another edition of What’s Up Wednesday
FME Hub Workshop
Did you know that we often review content on the FME Hub that is published by Safe Software Lab. Yesterday we had an FME Hub workshop where custom transformers such as the PotraceCaller, PointCloudSurfaceGenerator, AverageAreaCalculator, FuzzyStringComparer, and the EsriAnnotationRenderer received a 2020.2 update. There are lots more that were updated yesterday, so be sure to test out the latest version in your workspaces.
If you come across an item on the FME Hub that isn’t published by Safe Software Lab, but needs an update or is broken, please leave a comment on the FME Hub item or reach out to the developer directly.

Google Sheets API V3 Deprecation
Just a reminder that the Google Sheets API V3 will be deprecated by Google in June, please be sure to update your workspaces to the new V4 Google Sheets reader/writer. See this article for more details.
REST API V1 and V2 Deprecation
While we’re on the topic of deprecation. REST API V1 has been removed from FME Server and V2 has also been deprecated. If you are planning an upgrade, or are interested in keeping your workflows current, be sure to upgrade any REST V1 or V2 calls. See our Migrating from REST API V2 documentation.
