FMECloud and ADFS

Can you connect to ADFS (Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) is a(SSO) solution created by Microsoft ) and handle login on FMECloud through this? Similar to connecting to AD on FME Server

ERROR - throwing a duplicate user key error when trying to create a new account in FME Server

FME Server throws this error when I try to create a new user account: Error: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "fme_useraccount_pkey" Detail: Key (useraccount_id)=(#) already exists. where "#" increments after every attempt. It seems to be getting hung up on this user account id every time I try to create a new user. There is no such user already created. Background: we recently migrated FME Server to a new hosting environment and the issue only appeared after the migration. version: FME Server 2016.1.2.1 - Build 16674 - win64 Any idea what could be going wrong here?

How to run child workspaces under same username as parent

Following an upgrade to a new FME Cloud instance, my previous parent and child workspaces which ran under the same user account now run on different logins. My parent workbench runs on the correct login whilst all of the child workspaces run on a master login. I have checked the credentials and re-published all workbenches with the correct user account details but still hit this issue. If I add a grandparent workbench over both of these, it then runs on the correct login whilst the parent and child jobs run on the master login.

Whats does a Github OAuth App authorization callback URL look like?

I can make an OAuth App in Github and generate the client ID and secret but the authorization callback URL has me stumped. The documentation talks about URLs that don't exist in my 'app', unless its somewhere in the Github API I don't know about. Anyone got this going before?

FME encryption algorithm and key lengths?

Is there any official documentation that specifies the encryption specification used by FME desktop to store passwords (e.g. ORACLE connection string passwords)? Specifically what encryption algorithms and keys length combinations are available? Only a few combination are acceptable to the Australian Federal Government. This is required for my organisation security section to sign off on the future use of FME.

FME Server, use generated token in Javascript

Hi, I´m currently working on a custom webpage for data delivery. I´ve used some code from the following example in FME Playground: https://playground.fmeserver.com/javascript/data-delivery/open-layers-integration/ I´m wondering how it´s possible to change the token in the FMEServer.init below, to a token that is generated thru the example here: https://playground.fmeserver.com/javascript/authorization/request-a-token/ Pre-generated setup for the token: FMEServer.init({ server : "https://demos-safe-software.fmecloud.com", token : "568c604bc1f235bbe137c514e7c61a8436043070" }); I want to use the "guestToken" thats been generated in the Javascript below instead: function processToken(token) { if( typeof token == 'string' ){ guestToken = token.trim(); } else { guestToken = "<pre>"+JSON.stringify(token, undefined, 4)+"</pre>"; } Both codes works sepetratly in the same project, but rather then parse the token into a new div in the html-file, i would like to use it as the token. I´m not that u

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

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.html However, 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 opened Program 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

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.
