Initial Troubleshooting
- Does the FME Flow User have proper permissions to access and create FME Flow Projects? And permissions for applicable components – for example, Repositories, Resources, Web Connections?
- Try restarting FME Flow.
- If a Project contains API tokens, one of the following must be true to import:
- The user belongs to the fmesuperuser group
- The project owner conducting the import has the same user account on the target system.
- In FME 2022.1, if a user has different roles/permissions across two machines and they create a Project with Workspace Apps, the imported Workspace Apps will be disabled as tokens are removed. After importing Workspace Apps, resave the Workspace App to generate a new token, which will enable it.
Common Issues
“Why can’t I add users to my FME Flow Project?”
To add users to any FME Flow Project, you must be a member of the fmesuperuser role. Please see the documentation for more information.
"How can I maintain the "shared with" users for my Project from one environment to another?"
When a Project with shared users is exported from one environment and imported into another, the Project must be shared again.
