Hello everyone, I encounter a similar problem to the following post from 4 years ago.I am able to write several output files (2 .dgn files) in FME Form. However when I publish the script to FME Flow and run the script in the form of a workspace I only get one output result back. I already looked into the Data Download Service Properties when I publish the script to FME Flow and both writers are already included in the Writers in Download attribute. So I am not sure why I don't get both files in the zip file. The files don't have the same name. The weird thing is also that the dgn file I get back from FME Flow has the same name as the zip file, while in FME Form they get the name I have defined in the writers (Bomen.dgn and Kabels_Met_Buffers.dgn). Another finding is when I look into the translation log on FME Flow, it looks all features are written (23000 features). I know that 18000 features are in one file and 5000 features in the other file. So it looks like all feature are written,

Hello, I am trying to write 3D Geometries (Points and Linestrings) to an Oracle-Database (21c Express). In the process all z-Coordinates get lost and SDO_GTYPE is wrongly written as 2001 or 2002 (2-Dimensional Geometries) instead of 3001 and 3002. Multiple Geometries are entering the writer as an aggregate (example below). Apart from the z-Coordinate missing these are written and interpreted correctly when writing to Oracle. I have checked the “Contains Z Ordinate” Option in the Writer-Parameters. Does anyone have anymore ideas what I could try?

Sometimes when I do a transformation from dwg to shape everything is included in 1 polyline (text, pipes, arrows) and when I look at it in inspektion mode I see that the dwg is splitting the lines by color, how do i do the transformation with a separation by color or adding the color value inside the whole polyline Sorry if my vocabulary is wrong

Hello everyone, This is the FME news for 12th January, 2022. FME2021.2.2 Update Although 2022 is very close, we still release updates to 2021. In this case version 2021.2.2 was updated yesterday: Except... a number of keen-eyed users noticed that the installed FME was still flagged as 2021.2.1. So what happened? Well, that's on us. We uploaded build 21805 when we meant to upload 21806. Sorry. We'll upload 21806 shortly. If you did install 21805 then you're one build short. What's missing in the extra build? Well, let's look at what's new in general. So 2021.2.2 is minor fixes (not new functionality) and there were fixes for: SchemaScanner transformer GeoJSON Writer (when writing Mapbox Styler properties) Log4j updates (see this page for the latest info) Cesium format (on a Japanese Windows machine) also a fix for version numbers HTTPCaller (GUI fixes) Garmin (improve reaction to incorrect GPSBabel version) Only the last item was part of 21806, so if you can live without that, you can s

Currently unable to use Feature Reader (version 15) with: Spatial Filter = "Initiator is OGC-Within Result" My initiator is a points layer and the Result layer is a polygon layer, both in the same coordinate system. It gives me a _reader_error of <missing> with no further explanation. This was upgraded from FME 2022.2 Feature Reader Version(13). No changes to any settings. When I copy/paste the version 13 Feature Reader from FME 2022 back into this 2024 workspaces and run it, it works just fine. Has functionality changed? If so, can someone point me to the doc that explains it?Or is this a bug?

Dear FME Community, I need to calculate measure PK from an object, modify them and apply to another object for cut it to elements. I try to explain all steps with this schema : I’m at the STEP 4 but I’m blocked when I want to apply my Measure PK to another objet. For that I’ve a FMWT in ZIP join to this subject. Thank you for your attention and your help. Geo-x

Hi, Does anyone know how to retrieve the information from the Settings tab of a layer published to Esri ArcGIS Online (AGOL)? I’m specifically trying to get the Data Source URL. The Request URL I’m using doesn’t return that information. Any ideas?

Up until 4/12, my workspace was writing to a SP list normally. It reads data from SQL and updates the SP list to match any changes. After someone changed the name of a SP column on the 12th, the workflow errored - but after the change was reverted, it still errored. The first line with the Python Exception was not in the original error when the column name was changed: Python Exception <TypeError>: unhashable type: 'dict'SHAREPOINT writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for detailsFeatureJoiner_2_JOINED_-1_35_Player (RecorderFactory): SHAREPOINT writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details First photo is an overview of the workspace - everything runs fine up until the SharePoint Writer labeled "TOPS Project List". No problems with the SharePoint Reader. Second photo is settings for the Writer (which worked fine last week!).

Hi, I would like to ask if there is a way to share webconnections to group of users with partial permission (ie only access permission) not full permission. the issue with full permission that the shared users can be able to delete web connections I shared. I have to tried to take off their manager and create permission but still wont be able to let them do not remove the share connection. We are looking for a way can do partial permission setting up. Thank you very much. 😁

My company does SSL inspection/interception which is causing errors when trying to view background maps in FME Form. I have seen ways to fix this for the FME Flow (Server) side, but is there any way to change any configurations for FME Form to handle this? The CA certificate for our authority is in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities certificate store on machines so I’m not sure why it isn’t trusted if FME is using the machine’s certificate store for trust. Below is an example of error seeing from FME Flow 2025.0.1 (but have seen on previous versions as well).

Has anyone run into an using the OGC WFS Reader for a WFS hosted by QGIS Server where the coords are swapped? Before I go back to the provider with the observation “hey I think there’s a bug in how your service is being delivered” I’d like to check that it’s not a known issue etc. To use the service I had to do the following: Thanks for any ideas!

Today I'm breaking my rule of never manually (or automatically) editing a workspace file, in order to dynamically update a choice-type user parameter.Question of the Week This question was asked by @philippeb who needs to send a list of names to a survey choice field. Q) Our employees fill a weekly survey about their health and their kids going to summer camp activities. The survey [fields] change in time, depending on the kids that subscribed. The subscribed kids are exported into an Excel file every week. I thought to read the file with FME and push the kids into the survey every week. That way the list of kids in the survey could change without our help. And the kid (or his parent) could select his name to fill the survey. The issue is that we don't know any survey platform able to change automatically from a script. Do you know if any kind of platform could change when FME pushes new values into it? A) I know of a platform that could be used to provide a weekly survey: FME Server!

Hello, This should be a very simple thing, but I just can't figure out how to do it! I want to append two tables together (Tables 1 & 2), both with very similar attributes, but I want to use the ID from Table 1 as the official Primary Key, and then get the highest number from that PK and increment upwards to create new PK values for the Table 2 appended values. I can get the maximum value from Table 1 using StatisticsCalculator, but I can't for the life of me work out how to use that value in the creation of the new Primary Key. I've been trying to do a conditional value calculation in Attribute Manager, something like, if Table 1 ID has a value, then PK = Table 1 ID, else use MaxValue from StatisticsCalculator and sum it with @sum(@double(@Count()),1.0) to increment up. But it's not working. Any ideas greatly appreciated! Thank you! Katrina

Hello, How do I add a datestamp to a file name in the Excel Writer? I tried adding @Value(_timestamp) to the Writer output and all I get is the file name Bldg_Pts_@Value(_timestamp) as the file name. No date.

As mentioned in another post, I'm currently upgrading a bunch of workbenches to run on FME Flow 2024, some of them many years old. Typically, for anupgrade, I will go through each workbench, upgrade all transformers, readers, and writers, then run it in test desktop (workbench) environment, then publish to and test in a test server (flow) environment. In, FME 2024 the Vertex Extractor gives me bogus results, even after upgrading all the constituent transformers in this custom transformer. It looks like X and Y, or Lat and Lon, are reversed. When I open the CoordinateConcatenator (arrow above), I see this: Default setting While I haven’t dug through the rest of the custom transformer, this - frankly - looks counter-intuitive. When I change that to “XYZ”, everything runs just fine and results are as expected. My tweak I have tried to compare my version (I’m assuming that upgrading all components makes it uptodate) to older versions to see whether upgrading might have introduced this prob

Hi there, I am working on a data clean up model. Many thin areas and remnants have been cleaned up but I can't figure out how to this last thing. There are some thin areas that connect on both sides to a large and very complex polygon. (See image) Does anyone have a suggestion for how to remove these type of areas? So only the thin parts have to be removed.
