• Broadcast message from Safe Software on FME Flow

Same issue - seems that the articles are still rolling out or there is an issue with the permissions.

Canada is still asleep so I guess we might need to wait a few more hours before they can address the issue

It looks like Canada is still asleep (or involved in Christmas parties) since I do not find a public link to this announcement.

And I would like to share this with our IT admin, who does not have a safe account…

Can this be fixed please?

Hi ​@luke.hicks 

Thanks for your response. I wonder though why this article is only for those with an safe-account. I will need to share this to my IT - team and they don’t have an account as ​@r_huesken wrote above.

Please clarify this inconvenience.
