FME Flow

FME Flow version: 2024.2.5 build 24832 - win64In Automation, I can successfully send out emails when there’s only one receiver, but when I try multiple receivers or use CC, it will fail with error: Mon-19-Jan-2026 04:50:36.849 pm | INFORM | pool-2-thread-74 | Email testing (9e665a4d-a425-4960-b8e6-9395ec70a77d) | event (fd5e556f-ed1a-4fca-ad50-df7d5ffc22e3) | 801007 : Sending email with subject "Email testing - Non approved TMP notification" to recipient(s) "[email protected], [email protected]" ... | ERROR  | pool-2-thread-74 | Email testing (9e665a4d-a425-4960-b8e6-9395ec70a77d) | event (fd5e556f-ed1a-4fca-ad50-df7d5ffc22e3) | 801027 : An exception occurred.

Hi there,In this article (Configure user attribute mapping with Azure AD SAML Provider – FME Support Center), a group claim can be setup to pass an AD group name which aligns to a role in FME Flow. As a group claim could be based on a search criterion and many AD groups could be returned which is a common method of Enterprise group membership in ArcGIS Enterprise software. I was wondering if this could be used to grant several roles to a user?Looking at controlling access to repositories, who can view workspace and who can run a job, etc via AD group assignment.Thanks

 Since using FME Flow version 2024.2.3, running on Windows Server 2022. we face the following issues.BackgroundWe found that in FME Flow 2024.2.3 the network security protocol TLS1.3 is not configured by default. We expect it to work, see e.g. FME Community TLSv1.3 Support).  Also, for TLSv1.3, the minimum requirements for the versions of OpenSSL and Java used are:Tomcat 9.0.13 and later versions have built-in TLS 1.3 support For TLS 1.3 support, you need JDK 1.8.0_170 or later.As FME Support Third Party Component Versions reports, FME Flow 2024.2.3 uses Tomcat 9.0.91 and Java JDK 17.0.12+7.

We setup an OAuth client in GCP that we’re trying to get working with FME Flow. I have installed the safe.google-bigquery package on FME Form and configured the web service with our unique client information from GCP. See below I then created a web connection based on this web service and uploaded this and a workspace utilizing this connection to our FME Flow instance. The workspace succeeds initially, presumably until the access token expires, but is failing with the following error after an hour or so:  It works again if I manually re-authorize the connection so I believe Flow is failing to retrieve a refresh token from GCP:

If you have an existing automation and need to make a change, you make your changes and publish \\ overwrite in FME Forms. Once you go to the automation and stop it, all parameters are reset to defaults. This happens even to workspaces that were not updated. This has happened the last 2 or 3 releases, currently we are onFME Flow 2023.1Build 23619 - win64

Apparently since fixing this problem https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407612007949-Known-Issue-FME-Flow-Apache-Tomcat-Vulnerability-with-X-Frame-Options-headerIn FME Flow 2025.1, embedding FME Flow content to other pages is disabled entirely by default.  Is there any chance to allow embedding from known sources or is embedding considered so risky that this would not be even considered? 

I am using a generic/dynamic schema in FME Workbench, and I have a workspace that processes multiple different datasets through the same workflow.At the end of the process, each dataset is written separately to the writer. However, I noticed that the outputs end up inheriting attributes from other datasets, which remain in the schema but with empty values, even though those attributes do not exist in the original source.I would like to understand: Why does FME keep attributes from other datasets when using a generic schema? What is the best practice to prevent schemas from being mixed ? Has anyone encountered this scenario or could suggest the correct approach to keep independent schemas for each dataset?

I am quite stuck on a problem with the Esri Geodatabase (ArcSDE Geodb) writer in FME 2025.1 and would appreciate any ideas.I am using the writer in update mode and not updating the spatial column.The error is only on FME Flow and not FME Form. Error updating feature for the table/feature class '<feature class name>'. Check the geometry of such feature is valid and is not too small for the resolution.I tried removing the geomerty before the writer since no geometry is being updated - same problem.The FME Flow Server has ArcGIS Server 11.1  installed rather than ArcGIS Pro 3.3 as on the desktop. [Edited with version numbers ]The feature class has archiving so I am little nervous updating the records directly with SQL.Any thoughts?  

I just had to downgrade a local testing FME Flow (from 2025.2 to 2025.1.2) to solve some unforeseen breaking changes in 2025.2 (or probably in 2025.1.3).But now I cannot install a backups from 2025.2 into the 2025.1.2 Flow:I’m very sure that the backups does not contain anything that’s not workable in 2025.1.2, so it’s just a matter of administratively blocking the restore.Why is this versioning stonewalling necessary at all ?Why not just warn about potential problems and restore what can be restored ?

Hi there,Just finished a fresh install of FME Flow 2025.2.1.I was configuring the backups and noticed that the output files were not getting a timestamp.Looking at the httpcallers they both submit using the non-timestamped attribute:If Append Date is No:If Append Date is yes:What it should be: Thanks,Marc

We are at FME 2024.2, both Form and Flow. I set up an organizational webhook in ArcGIS Enterprise Portal (11.3) to respond to the item sharing action and use a workspace to process the content message. The workspace extracts the item id and then use the HTTPCaller to retrieve the item’s metadata, using this URL parameter -- https://myArcGISURL/portal/sharing/rest/content/items/@Value(id),  Testing of the webhook content message in the FME Form is successful. But when running this workspace on the FME Flow webhook automation, the HTTPCaller gives this error. It appends a token parameter to the URL parameter.An error occurred while accessing the URL 'https://myArcGISURL/portal/sharing/rest/content/items/0f8ecac9c0c741b2aeb0da076d8df6ec?f=json&token=3c8qQVHUWB_73Wod2huNSkmjdxpX4s_ZGZ7ebK8UjIxQ8A4zZdzzwuKf3-Mk0

Hi,I’m relatively new to FME and currently doing some self-teaching for my company. At the moment, I’m trying to use an Excel Writer with a fanout expression to create hierarchical folders and files. The challenge is that I’m working with a bathymetric raster layer, and my workflow is primarily in CARIS, so the output files must be compatible with CARIS.I’ve tested several export options and found that .csv and .shp files work, but other formats do not. Does anyone have suggestions on alternative ways to create these folders and files while ensuring compatibility with .csar or caris compatible point cloud files?I also wonder if I am able to export contours as anything other than a shapefile/ can it be a .hob?My fanout expression is currently: @Value(ObjectName)Raw_Data\@Value(ObjectName)_BathymetricData.csv

Hi all,In our company we are using FME Flow, it's works great.Except with one workspace we get some errors. On the desktop version is works flawlessly! The error we get is about a plugin (STUF-GEO) that cannot be loaded:144 2024-7-3 21:48:01 | File C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\metafile\STUF-GEO.fmf could not be opened 148 2024-7-3 21:48:01 | Could not load module 'C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\plugins/STUF-GEO.dll' : 'The specified module could not be found' 149 2024-7-3 21:48:01 | Could not load module 'C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\STUF-GEO.dll' : 'The specified module could not be found' 150 2024-7-3 21:48:01 | This FME edition does not recognize the `STUF-GEO' reader.

We recently upgraded to FME Flow 2025 but now all of our FME processes with SharePointOnlineConnectors are failing.We have to keep going into FME Flow Connections and Parameters>Web Connections and re-authorise the Microsoft SharePointOnline connection. Is there a way to keep it authorised?This is causing dozens of processes to fail daily because we keep having to re-authorise the connection.  I have been upgrading transformers and re-publishing the workbenches to FME Flow but wondered if this was an issue for anyone else and if there were any further suggestions.Thanks in advanceScott

Need support in uploading the ZIP files to an FME Flow Resource folder first (via REST API v3 and v4), then pass the resource path as a parameter in the webhook call. The file uploads should accept both file formats zipped and unzipped (single gdb file or package files in a zip).

We have a distributed architecture of FME Flow 2025.1.2 using our own Tomcat deployment and we’re offloading our SSL via F5 into our private IP space. The issue we’re seeing is in the FME Flow REST API Gateway is the URL used in CURL/Request example URLs are http but should be https.We don’t believe its a CORS issue since we’re inside our domain. Where is FME Flow getting the CURL URL? Can we change it in a config file? Or is something else going on?

Hi everybody, Our BackupConfiguration.fmw has been failing lately. Based on the following post, I created new schedule on Flow but still having issues.  With the new schedule, I am having the attached error. However, gisadmin does have a fmesuperuser role. Any insights is highly appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

I upgrade FME Flow from 2024.2 to 2025.2.1 using the Windows express installation method. With all setting using default.Under “Engine Management” the localhost showing have 0 standard engines. Even I manually change it to 2, it stays at 0. FME Flow Engines service is running correctly. When I tried restart the service, FMEEngine.exe will show on details tab in Task Manager then disappear. When I tried run FMEEngine.exe, this error pop up:processMonitorConfigEngines.txt:NODE_ADMIN_PORT=7500NODE_MANAGED=true# ENGINE process configuration templateTEMPLATE_START_ENGINE="C:/Program Files/FMEFlow/Server/fme/FMEEngine.exe" REGISTER_FME_ENGINE localhost 7070 DEFAULT "C:/Program Files/FMEFlow/Server/fmeEngineConfig.txt" -ENGINE_HOST_NAME localhost TEMPLAT

I am just getting started with trying to use deployment parameters. When creating a scheduled automation, I thought I could use cron in a scheduled automation trigger but store the cron details in a deployment parameter. I took a working cron configuration and stored those details in a deployment parameter. Then when trying to enable the automation I got this error message in the debug log: Unable to assemble automation. Invalid Cron expression: {deployment.Trap_Daily_CRON}I am selecting the deployment parameter from the menu when creating the cron configuration, not just typing this in so I had expectations that this would succeed.There doesn’t seem any way to get this working that I can see.Is this something that is actually available?This is on FME Flow Hosted 2025.1.3.

Hello everyone,I’m working on an FME workspace where I need to process multiple input files sequentially within the same workflow, and I want to make sure that each file is processed independently, without any data or state being kept in memory from the previous file.Conceptually, what I’m looking for is a way to flush or reset the internal state between files, so that:cached features, temporary aggregates, statistics, or in-memory objectsfrom a previously processed file do not affect the processing of the next one.ContextI’m looping over multiple files (using a file-based workflow, not separate workspaces). The workflow includes transformers that may keep internal state (e.g. aggregations, statistics, grouping, geometry operations). The goal is to guarantee deterministic, per-file proces

When people download data from us they get maps that have names about what kind of data they are downloading and not the names. Like the photo but under the folders there are the names that i can control (see blue circle). Does anyone know how to change this or just skip the folders and just let everything go to the same place? They have a demo for this for shapefiles where they go in the same folder but it cant be used for cad as it needs to use layer name not for naming files but for the layer name I want in the file. Also when you do this you get extra attributes from other files even if they are just empty. This is so in the demo from Safe here: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/27400509041421-Data-Distribution-Tutorial

Hello,Our FME Flow server is installed behind a secure proxy and is accessible via the following URL: **[https://my.domaine.be](https://my.domaine.be)**The FME Flow server itself is *not* running in HTTPS; the HTTPS layer is configured at the proxy level.However, in the FME Flow configuration through the Web interface (Admin → System Configuration → Network & Email → Services), we have properly updated all URLs so that the root is **[https://my.domaine.be/](https://my.domaine.be/)**, and in “standard” usage everything works correctly with HTTPS URLs (access to the FME Flow web interface, data downloads, application publication, Webhook exposure).However, we are unable to use the REST API because an issue remains (see image in this email):FME seems to expect its API to be contacted over HTTP (see image in this email), whereas we must absolutely communicate with **my.domaine.be** over HTTPS.Could you tell us what needs to be adjusted in ou

If there is an automation where a workspace with an automations writer, triggers a child workspace a number of times is it possible to restrict those jobs to run on the same engine without the use of a queue?I want all child jobs triggered from the writer to run on the same engine as each other for a single automation run, but i don’t necessarily want to say that jobs can only be run on a single engine, as would be the case if I set up a queue
