Is there a way to set the permissions on particular dashboards in fme server. I created a custom dashboard and can see it in dashboards area and have given permission for user to see but I only want user to see that particular dashboard, not all of the dashboards available.

We are looking to review the possibility of using FME for a BIM to asset management to SCADA. Passing meter readings and outages to the model and any related work orders.Allowing to use FME as the front end, consolidating the data from th third party system.Instead of performing these tasks ourselves, we are looking to engage experts to perform this task. The work would expect to be handled remotely

Hi,  I made a workspace that creates folders and uploads files on a web API with the HTTP caller. The first version created folders at one level then uploaded files. Then it went on to do the next level and so on. So it was basically a series of HTTPcallers which worked fine on both desktop and Cloud.  However since it's impossible to know how many folder levels there are in advance I made it with a custom loop transformer and just one HTTP caller. This worked even better on desktop but trying to run it on FME Cloud it seems it never gets done. Something that takes 8 seconds in desktop isn't ready after half an hour on Cloud.....seems it never will be.   I checked the webconnection and I uploaded the custom transformer both to the repository and to the transformers folder. I run the same version of Desktop and Cloud 2018.1.0.1(18528). It initially didn't accept the custom transformer on an earlier Cloud version. Any ideas to what I might want to check or anyone with simila

Hi guys,i'm trying to cleaning up some historical GIS data which hasn't been well managed in the past 5-10 years. in that drive, all project related GIS data is saved in each folder which was named by the project name. what i want is to have is to have a workbench to search for shapefiles by certain texts (e.g. survey area, study area, project boundary) and write those into one feature class which have the folder name saved in one attribute table.Any suggestion?Thanks in advance :)

Dear all, I having problems with writing an - character in a fieldname. If i chance it to - then FME will automaticaly change it to _ (underscore) do have have a idea?I use the writer Spatialite. FME 2017.1. If i manualy change it to - then FME changes it to _....

I have a json array in the structure[{"name":"A","content":"X"},{"name":"B","content":"Y"},{"name":"C","content":"Z"}]how do I extract it as the name/content (key/value) pair so that end up with a feature containing the following attributes: A: X B: Y C: Z  In the actual data there are about 40 attributes, so an automatic flatenning of some sort would be prefered.

Hi, we are migrating mapguide gis using oracle spatial to esri arcgis using sql server. I would like to check if there is a benchmark that can be used as a reference to compute for the loading time?IS there a rule of thumb in terms of number of features, data size?Thank You.

Hi,I have a workspace that uses the custom FeatureCounter followed by a TestFilter. If too many features for my conversion I port to a Terminator transformer. Following termination I want to delete the input file as part of a Python Shutdown script. The path including filename are in a Published Parameter. Example: [source_file]: c:\\folder\\file.extI've looked at lots of info but my attempts produce errors or the file doesn't get deleted, or both.Can someone with good experience with this provide details on all lines needed in the shutdown script (and if needed, any Python needed in the body of the workspace)?Thanks!

@takashi I have a dataset like this:DateValue01/01/2018201/01/2018001/05/2018301/12/2018102/01/2018302/02/20184I want to create an attribute for Daily Average Value in Each Month, and store the daily average (sum of values within each month ÷ number of days in that month).The denominator is where I'm having trouble. Any suggestions on the best way to find the number of days within a given month?

Hi FME community.I have a simple task to change Japanese field names in a shapefile to English field names. So I was using SchemaMapper to do this task. I created a simple csv file which has two columns, old_name and new_name. Then, I used this csv file in the ShemaMapper. I save the resulted layer as a shapefile. But the shapefile I crated had the exactly same field names as original one. All Japanese field names...I realized that when I inspect the output with the Inspector, I can see that SchemaMapper actually changed attribute names. Please see an image below.However, it did't reflect these changes when I save this result as a shapefile. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong??Thank you in advance.Hiroo

I want to add an image to a Word file. The image has to show a map with road names, house numbers and reserved areas.The map I get from a WMS service. The road names, house numbers and reserved areas I read from our PostGIS database as vector features.I use the "TextAdder" transformer to change the road names and house numbers from vector features to text and use the "VectorOnRasterOverlayer" transformer to create the raster image to use in the MSWordStyler. And I use the "FeatureColorSetter" to set the color of the reserved areas.It works well with the map and the reserved areas - but the road names and the house numbers isn't shown in the map.How do I change the text to raster ?

Hi everyone. I'm researching on how to convert an autocad file drawing to geotiff and found this software but I do not know how does it work. Could anyone help me the basic on how to convert autocad to geotiff?

Dear FME community.I've to generate a complex line with a points listing. Complew why ? Because the line is a composite of lines and curves. The information of the geometric type is in point's attributes like that :I only tried with the LineBuilder but I don't know how to do with the curves objects.Thank you for your help.

I want to redefine raster band values, based on another raster band value.More specific: If raster band 3 has a value "0", raster bands 0, 1 and 2 should have a value "nodata".How can this be done most efficiently?

Hi, I am currently trying to convert a WFS into an ESRI shapefile and other ESRI formats using FME. I am adding the WFS as a reader and the output as the ESRI shapefile. The process runs with 0 Errors however 4 warnings: "Coordinate (approx) 9E:49N outside grid file coverage; no transformation applied.Coordinate (approx) 3E:49N outside grid file coverage; no transformation applied.Coordinate (approx) 3E:61N outside grid file coverage; no transformation applied.Coordinate (approx) 9E:61N outside grid file coverage; no transformation applied."The transaction is successful however 0 features are read and 0 features are written. Any help on how to fix this would be great!Thanks

When migrating from 2016 to 2018 I noticed that the folder Templates no longer exists when using a Shared FME Folder (FME Options, Default Path). There is a new folder Workspaces but it isn’t used for templates. Where do I store our company templates on a shared location so they will be visible when creating a new workspace?

Hi,I'm setting up an attribute containing a list of files, and then I want to use it as input Dataset in a FeatureReader.e.g. the attribute contains the string: "C:\\a.jpg","C:\\b.jpg"The featureReade will reject the attribute as input DatasetIf I hardcode the same string in the FeatureReader Dataset field it works fine.I also tried to use a workspace runner to convert the attribute to a Published Parameter as input for a reader, but the same problem appears. Can anyone help me out?

The new DatetimeConverter works well for the gtfs stop times which are stored as only a time string field. But it rejects (naturally) any times greater or equal to 24:00:00. The gtfs convention is to roll over midnight for bus routes that do not finish before midnight. How might that be handled?I am trying to calculate the total time of a route using Arrival_Time - Departure_Time. I cannot just replace the 24 with 00 because I have to add up two intervals. I can see a clumsy three part conversion. There are 1.4M records so elegance and speed would be welcome.

I've got thousands of thin polygon and their centreline. And I can calculate average width of each by using polygon area divide centreline length. I want to generate some random width number based on the average width and the numbers are between max and min width of the polygon.My first thought is to create points along the centreline with small interval like 1 meter, and create station lines based on the points. Then use polygon to clip these station lines, the shortest and longest length of station lines will be the max and min range. So I can generate random width numbers in excel.I've already got the interval points by using @takashi 's LineDivider, and some articles about calculate line angle and create bearing line. I just want to know if there's an easier way to do so, and only in FME. To get my thought work, I have to switch between FME and ArcGIS, and also some third party add-on in ArcGIS. It is too complicated for others to use it.

I have data that was imported into PostGis and now I am exporting back to the DWG but I am not able to resubmit the texts. If you use the TextAdder it only exports the text, even though the parameters are KEEP for geometries. Can you help me?
