Transformers

I am using feature reader to connect to an ArcGIS Online feature service.The feature service has multiple layers in there. I want to use a where clause against 1 layer only to filter the results from that table, but not apply the where clause to the other tables. 

Good morning yall, Im banging my head trying to find the issue as to why I cannot read this.I have TemppathnameCreator before my google drive connector. google drive is saving a folder to that temp locationfeature reader is supposed to grab that drive folder and read a csv out of it.Ill paste some screenshots below. Hopefully is some setting in the feature reader. Much help is appreciated!

Trying to understand how the AreaGapAndOverlapCleaner works. Set to Fill All Gaps No and Repair Method Priority (Edge Preserving) with a tolerance of 1mSo why does it change the boundary of this polygon where it neither overlaps or is a gap (it’s the edge of coverage) 

I am trying to join SQL data with csv data.  The field coming from SQL is uint32.  The field in the CSV is Char but converted to uint32.  Im joining the sets on this field and I get no matches.  here is the SQL data:Here is the CSV date after conversion to uint32:Feature Joiner information:

I’m having trouble finding examples for JSONTemplater when working with a JSON array input attribute.The incoming data looks like this:{"layers": [ { "defaultVisibility": true, "geometryType": "esriGeometryPolygon", "id": 1, "maxScale": 0, "minScale": 0, "name": "Parcels", "parentLayerId": -1, "subLayerIds": null, "type": "Feature Layer" } ]}I’m interested in extracting the first array member id value into an object like this:{"layers": [{"id": 1}]}I can almost get the data into what I want in two steps, first extracting the value with a query json["layers"][0]["id"] and then using the JSONTemplater to use the id value, but bizarrely the value 1 is cast to string “1” byt the templater, which is invalid for downstream work.Anyone know how to make what I want

I have rasters with one alpha channel and one grey channel. I need to ensure that the grey band is grey8. How do I coerce only the grey band and leave the alpha band untouched?The RasterInterpretationCoercer will change both bands and I have not found any other transformer that fits my requirements.  

I’m trying to run some workspace through Task scheduler with FME Form. I’m using an Emailer package and when I run the task as my user, everything is fine. But When I run it as local system it always fails as it can’t find the package. I tried defining Shared folder and setting up environment variables, but couldn’t make it work.As for setting up shared connections it works fine, but not with packages.What would be the right setup for this?

I’m trying to convert those attribute values whichever has comma into an array.Attribute A has values - "ABC" and "ABC","DEF" and "ABC","DEF","GHI".Desired output -“ABC”["ABC", "DEF"]["ABC", "DEF",”GHI”]Any inputs are appreciated. Thanks very much!Tagging ​@danilo_fme , ​@david_r 

I am trying to create a single ArcGIS Enterprise Feature Service that contains multiple layers using the Feature Writer transformer using the ‘Esri ArcGIS Feature Service’If I run it for a single layer, it works fine but as soon as I try for multiple layers, it fails with an error message.“No layers/tables are found matching the name ...” Are there settings that need to be enabled to allow it to write multiple layers or does it only work for a single layer? 

Found that I had an old thread on the same subject. My question now should be: Are there any new methods that are faster than those suggested in the thread above?  --original question---I am trying to speed up a work bench. What I have: DTM georasters where the highest (statCalcMax) cell value of each raster has been extracted into an attribute. The other cells have been given a nodata value. What I want: I need to find the x-y postiton of the cells that have a value in each raster as fast as possible. I would like to find a way to somehow filter out only pixels that have a value before any spatial/geometry processing. What I tried but found to slow:The methods below convert the cells into points before identifying the cells I need. This make

FME 2025.1.3.0 Build 25643I downloaded the new ArcGIS Feature Service Package and set up a connection using the Esri ArcGIS Online OAuth Web service. When I attempt to insert a new feature into an existing AGOL feature service using the default values of the Esri ArcGIS Feature Service format, I get a warningWARN  |ArcGISFeatureServiceWriter: The field 'GlobalID' has a NotNull constraint, but it is NULL, missing, or empty. Skipping feature...The feature is not committed but the FeatureWriter or Writer (I tested both) shows success and the number of features written as 1. Without reading through the warnings, I wouldn’t know there was a problem.Since I’m inserting a feature I don’t have a globalid! And the field is noneditable in the feature service, so it seems like an odd error.Messing around with the settings I found that if I made sure the GlobalID field was exposed in the User Attributes and in the Advanced Parameters “Use GlobalID” was

Hi all,I am fairly new to FME. What I wanted to implement I was able to figure out with the community here or the trainings at the Safe academy. But now I struggle as I do not understand, where my mistake is.Goal: I need to write features with a dynamic schema. So, I added via Readers a “Reader as Resource”. It is an Excel file from where I want to use a specific sheet. There a added my columns which shall be written to my target source. Writing a FFS file works as expected by using the following configuration.One important note: a sheet in excel has a limitation for the name. As I need to create a dynamic workbench which can read different source files and handle a different amount of dynamic columns per source file, I want to name it like the feature type - but shortened to what Excel can handle.Dynamic Schema De

Has anyone had success with using the updated 2025.2 Excel writer to write data to a table in Excel?  I see that this idea was implemented with 2025.2:  Excel Writer: Explicit Table Support | CommunityHowever, the instructions for the writer don’t go into a lot of detail on how to have the writer create a new table on a sheet and load it with the incoming data.I personally tried to follow some of the older demo’s that walk throughs for writing to a named range.  Those walkthroughs require you to create a template xlsx file with the named range already created.  So for my 2025.2 test, I create a new template.xlsx file, then created a table named tData on Sheet1.  The table is blank.  After that I created some dummy data in FME and tried to write it to a new excel file using the template.  The output excel file does l

Hi all!I’m looking for some possible help with my FME workflow (dwg to geodatabase). I have a DWG reader followed by several geometry transformers, and the geometry is working well. Where I’m stuck is the attribute schema.I have a CSV/Excel file that defines my target schema. it’s structured row-by-row. each row represents a single attribute, not a feature. All the attribute fields are under the same "attribute_value" column. So, each feature class is represented by many rows. For example, electrical pole has 8 rows—one row each for pole_id, owner, project#, etc.—all sharing the same source layer, output feature class, and dataset. Another feature class (vegetation) follows the same pattern but with fewer rows because it has fewer attribute fields.I need the geodatabase to have each feature class only contain the attributes listed for it in the CSV, and nothing extra. I understand this requires a dynamic writer, but I haven’t had success yet. I

In the answer to this questionEsri ArcGIS Feature Service - Reads Dates as Epoch Milliseconds | Communitya URL is given to the FME hub which doesn’t match the address I’m used to seeing for FME Hub, crucially the info on this package is all quite different too This is what i’m familiar withhub.safe.com/publishers/safe/packages/esri-agolEsri ArcGIS Connector - FME Hub and this is the link providedhub.fme.co/publishers/safe/packages/esri-agolEsri ArcGIS Connector - FME Hub

Oh no, I put my question into the wrong Category (Community Q+A). I cant move the thread.Sorry for the double posting, but it seemed, that in the Q+A category is nobody who can move my thread (or?).So I post this one here with the link to my wrong settet Post.  

Hello,I am testing out the Esri ArcGIS Feature Service writer that is in the Esri ArcGIS Online Connector package (Esri ArcGIS Connector v3.13.2). I’m using Form 2024.2.2.0 (20250114 - Build 24820 - WIN64). Screenshots are edited to remove confidential information. I have noticed that the “Target WKID” cannot be left blank even if you have selected “Feature Service Handling: Use Existing” If I am understanding the documentation correctly, this parameter is only needed if the writer is creating a Feature Service. However, as the default is set to WKID 102100, if you don’t change this to the correct WKID, it will write the data out to the wrong location. I initially made this mistake before I realized I had to input my data’s WKID.

I recently tried to update an older workspace with a TestFilter that is used to branch data out using basic logic. After the update, the workspace failed in an odd fashion and after a bit of troubleshooting it turned out that one of the tested attributes, “fme_feature_type” in this case, was getting changed to nulls for many, but not all of the resulting rows. The change was from TestFilter Version 2 to Version 3. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? I’m running FME Form Build 25815. 

hi everyone! some of my line features (pipes) have text features floating above (top left) of the line, describing what type of pipe it is. I want to add that text as an attribute field to that feature. but also not all of the lines have one and I want it to only match if it's describing that feature (not grabbing a random text field nearby). I'll also note that everytime I've tried to use neighborfinder, the autocad_text_string AND fme_text_string values of lines show numbers (ex. 356.77, 623.44) instead of the descriptive text it should have shown. I've been trying this for hours and would appreciate any help given. thanks in advance!my workflow is: DWG Reader →  Attribute exposer →  Feature joiner1 CSV Reader →  Duplicate filter →  Feature joiner1 Feature joiner1 →  Deaggregator → 2D forcer → G

hi everyone! some of my line features (ex. pipes) have text features floating above (top left) of the line, describing what type of pipe it is. I want to add that text as an attribute field to that feature. but also not all of the lines have one and I want it to only match if it's describing that feature (not grabbing a random text field nearby). This is my workflow so far, with some brief descriptions. I'll also note that everytime I've tried to use neighborfinder, the autocad_text_string AND fme_text_string values of certain lines show numbers (ex. 356.77, 623.44) instead of the descriptive text it should have shown. im guessing those are possible distance values it’s grabbing….I've been trying this for hours and would appreciate any help given. thanks in advance! my workflow is attached below.

Hi,In the headers section, it seems it’s mandatory to define the header parameter immediately.Is there any way to push a Json or a FME attribute to define a dynamic header to use?My issue is, the client API Rest has many methods with different header parameter. I’m trying to setup a custom transformer that will be able to handle dynamically the header to set. But it doesn’t seem possible to do it right now?Any workaround to achieve it?Regards,Jean  

Hi FME Community,I’m working on a project where I need to create a 3D cone shape in FME 2025 and publish it to ArcGIS Online 3D viewer. The cone should:Start at ground level (let’s say Cape Canaveral X, Y, Z coordinates). Have a base radius of 500 m. Extend in a cone shape getting wider upwards at a 7° angle. Reach approximately 50 km into space (so it’s a very tall, tapered cone).I’ve tried using combinations of Creator, Taper Line Bufferer, Rotator, and SurfaceBuilder, but I’m struggling to generate the correct geometry and export it in a format that ArcGIS Online accepts (e.g., Collada, OBJ, or multipatch).Challenges I’m facing:Generating the circular base and apex points accurately.

Hi, I have a workspace in which I read features from different postgis tables and attach their schema with the FeatureReader.Then I want to write dynamically the features in a geopackage.When writing, the gpkg writer tries to use the fields defined as primary key in the schema, but sometimes I have several or the primary key is not an int as requested by the gpkg format.How can I easily delete the information on the primary key fields in the list attribute{} created by the FeatureReader ? I assume I have to delete if in the subattributes fme_data_type and native_data_type in the list.Furthermore, some features read contains id column, how to handle this to not interfere with the gpkg writer ? In the past there was an option in the writer to specify the name of the gkpg primary key.Maybe the creation of a gpkg_id field defined as Primary key is enough ? Thanks for any advice !P.S. : I use FME Form 2025.

I have a workspace where the DateTimeCalculator is failing for all records. The rejection code is always INVALID_INPUT. And yet, when I view the data in Inspector the two input fields I’m using both list as Date under Data Type. The dates look fine fine (e.g. - 20251216). It fails for any mode - Add or Subtract, Calculate Interval, etc. Any ideas why it’s failing and what I need to do to fix it? (FME Form 2025.1.0.0)
