FME and ArcGIS Webhooks


What is a Web Hook

A webhook enables 3rd party software to programmatically run a workspace.

  • Webhooks are new to ArcGIS Online

  • With webhooks and the power of FME data can be updated instantaneously

  • The webhook trigger in FME will pickup changes once they occur in ArcGIS Online

More information on them is available here: WebHook Trigger Manual


FME Webhook Transformers

FME currently has two hub transformers available developed by Safe to help you work with ArcGISOnline Webhooks that have been set-up on ArcGIS layers. Currently this needs to be done programatically within the ESRI environment, as they are not available in the same way that Survey123 presents them. The decoder product will be integrated into the core product at some point in the future.

Example Application

One of the most powerful use cases for webhooks is combining them with ESRI's Survey123 to produce an output document each time a survey is created or updated.
