Hi, our ArcMap license will expired tomrrow and will not renew after it expired. Also, I have Arcgis pro installed on my machine and the license is valid (will not expire).

Currently all of my script setting is set AUTO under the “Esri ArcGIS Compatibility” . Will the AUTO setting  pick to ArcGIS Pro license, after ArcMap license is expired? or do i have to manually set to ArcGIS Pro in each FMW script individually?

“FME Workspace, go to Navigator --> Workspace Parameter --> Translation --> Esri ArcGIS Compatibility   --> AUTO”

thanks,

Wilson

Hi ​@wilsonlee 

 

This article should hopefully answer any questions you have: Setting the Esri ArcGIS Compatibility Workspace Parameter.

The article mentions that auto compatibility makes use of Esri ArcMap libraries, and then looks for Esri ArcGIS Pro libraries if ArcMap libraries are not found.

So everything should run properly when the Esri ArcGIS Compatibility is set to auto. If you notice that the workspace isn't running correctly, then I would try changing the compatibility to Esri ArcGIS Server/ArcGIS Pro.
