FMEServerNotifier
Sends a notification to a specified FME Server. The notification may be used for a variety of actions, such as triggering a downstream workspace, or sending an e-mail message to subscribed clients.
Dependencies
This transformer requires an FME Server connection.
Output Ports
Features are output through this port for every notification that was successfully sent. Each feature will have the following attributes exposed:
- _notifier_topic: Topic to be notified
- _notifier_content: The contents of the notification
Features are output through this port when a notification fails to be sent. Each feature will have the following attributes exposed:
- _notifier_topic: Topic to be notified
- _notifier_content: The contents of the notification
- _failure_reason: If failed to send a notification, the failure reason
- _http_status_code: If failed to send a notification, the HTTP status code
Failure to successfully send a notification will not halt the translation.
Performance Considerations
Windows systems may experience slow performance in situations where a high volume of notifications are sent. Performance may improve by disabling automatic proxy detection:
- Click the Start menu,
- In the 'Search programs and files' textbox, type 'proxy' and select 'Configure proxy server'.
- In the Internet Properties dialog, Connections tab, click LAN settings.
- Uncheck Automatically detect settings.
- Click OK.
Parameters
Connect to an FME Server
This parameter identifies the server that will be used to connect to the FME Server that will be receiving the notification.
These parameters are credentials used to verify your level of access to the FME Server. Depending on your FME Server configuration, these parameters may be optional.
This parameter is the notification topic. Different FME Server notification subscriptions respond to different topics, so this topic eventually determines which actions are triggered.
This parameter specifies the notification content.
Editing Transformer Parameters
Using a set of menu options, transformer parameters can be assigned by referencing other elements in the workspace. More advanced functions, such as an advanced editor and an arithmetic editor, are also available in some transformers. To access a menu of these options, click beside the applicable parameter. For more information, see Transformer Parameter Menu Options.
