For some reason the data that processed is not the same as viewed in the inspector. I am trying top process my data and store it in SQL server but for some reason about 200 records go missing both in the table that i have created and data inspector. Does anyone know why this could be happening and how can retrieve the missing records? Only 2074213 records are shown out of 274410?

Hello to all FME fans,I have met one issue, how to configure transformers/writers for TXT with constant/dynamic content.E.g.

I have a multiple polygons that represents a ground model surface. I have one border, that for example marks the limits of a buildable area.  I want an extruded version of my border, using the extruder I for example can extrude it by 10 m up. But I want to extrude it from the height of the overlapping area on the ground model +10 m. That is a separate problem with the vector, however, to do that I need every single intersecting point where the polyline (see orange TOP) edge intersects the polygon, or where the border goes over to another triangle. (see the grey crosses). The border has no z-value or elevation. What I want is a polyline that follows the surface of the ground model and that I can get the z-value for each point or edge so I can extrude the height accordingly.  So the orange is now flat, but I want it to drape over the gorund model and follows its height, so then I can easily add my 10 m.  I tried a combination of Intersector, Surfacedraper, and surfacemodeller but Im havi

Hi there, I'm still a bit new to FME so this might be dumb question. Sorry for that.What I'm trying to do is read a CSV file which contains X and Y fields and then after a few transformations write to an Esri Geodatabase (Postgresql with SDE).First I've set my reader as described in 1st Method here.Now at the end of my workbench I wonder what to do so that the ArcSde Geodb writer writes the Geometry point to an attribute named Shape (of type st_geometry) which is not in the csv ? Do I need to add this field in an AttributeManager ? If so what should the value be ? Thanks in advance. 

Hi, I'm trying to set up a workflow where I attach the intermediate result of a workspace to an Email as an Excel spreadsheet but I have troubles writing only one file. The Emailer documentation hints at using TempPathNameCreator and a FeatureWriter but I could not find any concrete examples on FME hub. When I run the translation every feature is written to a separate Excel file instead of a single one. I'm sure this can easily be done but I can't figure out how. Thanks for any help!

I'm using FME Server and I'm trying to switch some notifications over to an automations. In the old notifications system, the JSON object that you can pass into the published workspace parameter has the path of every attachment in the email. In the new automations systems, it looks like the "Email Attachment" variable only has a single attachment path passed (the first attachment in the email), instead of every attachment path. Is there a way to pass all the attachment paths into the workspace input parameter using automations? Thanks

I want to perform a Regex search in a string and I want to pass the regex pattern via a feature attribute. However, when I pass the regex pattern in the attribute and select it in the StringSearcher in the field "Contains Regular Expression", I get no match. When I enter the pattern manually in this field, the matching works.How can I pass a regex pattern via an attribute?

I am using serveral AttributeValidator Transformers in FME Desktop 2019.1.2 and noticed that one of them is removing a record. I have a total of 48,328 records that I am trying to validate. However, the total output of Passed + Failed ports adds up to 48,327. The 3 AttributeValidators that I used upstream passed all records thru. Screenshot of Workbench:AttributeValidator Settings: It appears that only the 4th AttributeValidator in the workbench does this. Is there a limit to the number of AttributeValidators that a single workbench can contain. I need to use multiple AttributeValidators as I have to perform 6 unique validation test. Has anyone seen this behavior? If so, what is the fix/work-around? Or is there better way to validate data without using the AttributeValidator?Thanks,Mark

Hello FME Community, I am currently translating IFC to CityGML using one of the tutorial workbenches (https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1025/bim-to-gis-intermediate-ifc-lod-300-to-lod-4-cityg.html). This is working mostly fine.I want to import the model in 3D CityDB using the Importer/Exporter tool. It needs to be georeferenced, so I can later export it to KML and COLLADA. My question is: How can i add the correct coordinates and coordinate system (UTM32) to the resulting CityGML model) Thanks in advance and best regardsTobias

I created a Custom Transformer and submitted to hub.safe.com - to try the functionality. It is really easy to upload custom transformer and I recommend you to do it. However I wonder what happens when someone gives a comment on a transformer. Do you get notified by e-mail? Can someone test it and add a comment to : https://hub.safe.com/publishers/sigtill/transformers/looper - so I can check if I get an e-mail ? Thanks.
