Question

Passing parameter containing ampersand

+6

FME Desktop 2021.3

Python Interpreter ESRI ArcGIS Python 3.7

Hi I am trying to pass a user parameter that includes the ampersand

i.e. username@domain, which I then use within a python caller to login to ArcGIS Portal

When I look at the value of the parameter, I get

username<at>domain

hence I am unable to connect to my portal.

I have tried to format using string functions str() and strip(). But it doesn't work

Any suggestions ??

+67

Hmm, thats weird, I just tried in 2021.1 and 2023.1 (don't have 2021.3) and couldn't replicate it.

However, there is a transformer called DecodeFMEText which will convert that string back into what you're expecting it to be
