FME Server - Data Delivery

Hi,I have setup a really nice example of the data delivery on FME server using this example code - https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1117/data-distribution-with-web-maps.html. Ihave also made the guest account token the init for the FME javascript.I have setup a simple form to authenticate in the example the user using the token service however struggling to replace the init token with the users token when the FMEServer.runDataDownload method runs.Any attempt to overwrite the variable token resorts to running the job under the guest account.Any suggestions?Thanks

How to generate Token in FME Server 2016

Hi there,I can generate Token from FME Server2017 using C#, tested with postman, see attached image, but when I try to use same method from FME Server2016, it gives me error: Both user ID and password need to be specified for viewing/generating token. So what's the correct way to generate Token in FME Server2016.1 using postman or C#. Thank you very much.

FME Server mail publication and virus security

Hi, me and @thomas_merkus have this simple question on configuring FME Server to receive e-mails. If we wanted to configure FME Server to receive mail, we end up with a notification content that possibly contains a reference to an e-mail attachment, which is stored somewhere on the local system. But if that attachment contains a virus, how secure is that? As a human it is possible that I recognize the danger and thus I do not open the attachment. But for a machine as FME Server is, that could be not as simple as that, so the question is: how can we ensure that FME Server is not storing malicious software on the local disk?

Does FME Server Token Reset?

I changed the FME Server token MAX_EXPIRATION parameter to 20 years based on the steps outlined in this help page: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/919/setting-the-maximum-expiration-for-fme-token-servi.htmlHowever, the token that I set a month ago has now changed to a new token. I have two questions:1. Is it valid to set the MAX_EXPIRATION parameter greater than two years as the above article suggests?2. Is changing the token the desired behaviour by FME Server? I would expect that when a token expires it simply becomes invalid, and does not create a new token.I am using FME Server 2016.1.3.1.Thanks

FME Quick Translator in MapInfo

I recently transferred MapInfo v15.2 from a computer with Windows 10 to a computer with Windows 7. I am trying to run the Universal Translator, but it gives me the following error:File C:\\Users\\Name could not be openedProgram terminating.I have been searching through the forums and throughout the documentation FME has, but I am unable to find a solution SO FAR. I am wondering if it is a security issue with Windows 7; I have multiple users set up on this computer. I will continue to search for answers, but if anyone on this forum can help me, I would be very grateful.Regards

Socrata Writer App Token

Hi,  I'm on FME Desktop 2013 and am trying to use the Socrata Writer. The documentation says that I need to provide a host, username, password, and app token to access the Socrata dataset, but I can't find an input for my app token. Could anyone help me out to find where it's located?

oAuth refreash token screen blank

Hi,  I've just been trying to play with the google engine api, and the FME 2014 reader/writer functionlity.  I'm stuggelling a bit with the oAuth refreash token.  the dialog that FME provides is blank, (white and empty) so I can't use it to generate a token for me, so.  1) can some one debug why my dilog is empty (i suspect proxy issues, i have set my paswords in the tools>options) 2) how can i generate a code to paste in to here outside of FME....  and maybe  3)  ideally this would be for deploying onto server in the end, what ports do I need open to support oAuth and googles spatial engine.  Nick
