data and user management is
time-consuming and subject
to error.

14. Tasks, requests, and
maintenance often get in the
way of long-term projects and
goals.

15. Ditch manual tasks for
responsive and automated
ArcGIS workflows.
Use FME and webhooks to respond in real-time to events and
activity in ArcGIS Enterprise.

16. Introduction to
Webhooks

17. Real-time Data
Updates and
Notifications
● Respond on-time
● Make informed decisions
● Make operations and
processes more efficient
● Reduce manual tasks

18. Real-time Data

Collaboration and
Data Sharing
● Automate sharing -
stakeholders have the
information they need,
when they need it
● Integration with other
applications for
cross-team collaboration
● Eliminate data silos

20. What are Webhooks?
A webhook is an automated way for one application to
send data or notifications to another application when
specific events occur.

21. What are Webhooks?
In traditional workflows, we ask an
application for data.
In webhook workflows, we wait to receive
data from an application.

25. Webhooks Terms
Event: Activity, process, update, state, or change
Webhook Message: The message content, usually JSON or XML format
Webhook URL: Where the message is sent
JSON: Common format for exchanging data over the web. Structured like a dictionary.

27. Types of ArcGIS Enterprise Webhooks
Organization
Items, Users, Roles, Groups
Feature Service
Features, Attachments, Layers, Definitions
Geoprocessing
Completion of a Geoprocessing service job Portal for ArcGIS
Documentation:
Event Triggers

28. Event-driven Workflows
A user is assigned to a new
role.
A parcel dataset is updated
with a new permit
application.
A points location is updated
by a field technician.
A public engagement survey
is sent out for feedback
collection.
User is given access to the
groups, items, and licenses
their new role requires.
Automated validation for
data integrity, accuracy and
adherence to standards.
A geoprocessing task
completes service on a
critical dataset.
Updates are propagated to a
data visualization tool

29. FME Flow
Webhook Trigger
● FME Automations run workflows
whenever an event happens, like a
schedule or file update.
● The Webhook Trigger responds to
messages from another application,
like ArcGIS Portal.
The moment the message is received,
FME responds in real-time by running an
automated workflow or process.

30. FME Tools for ArcGIS Portal Data
ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader and Writer
Read and write to Feature Services/Layers
ArcGISOnlineConnecter
Upload, update, download, delete, or list data about items belonging to
users and groups. Change sharing settings or publish items as hosted
feature layers.
HTTPCaller
Create custom requests via ArcGIS REST APIs

31. Portal Authentication Types
Web-tier
● Basic
● Digest
● NTLM (Integrated Windows Authentication)
● Kerberos (IWA and LDAP)
SAML
● SAML 2.0 ( Single Sign-On/SSO)
Connecting to ArcGIS Portal

32. Working with JSON
ArcGIS webhooks use JSON (JavaScript Object Notation), a common format for
exchanging information over the web. Its built like a dictionary.
Use JSON transformers in FME to create workable data from JSON.

33. Requirements for ArcGIS Enterprise Webhooks
● An ArcGIS Portal Web Connection
● An ArcGIS Portal/Server account with either:
○ Privilege for the type of webhook you are creating
○ Administrator role
● HTTPS/SSL for ArcGIS Portal/Server and FME Flow
● ArcGIS Portal/Server must trust the certificate used by FME Flow
● Network communication by either:
○ FME Flow and ArcGIS Portal/Server within the same network
○ FME Flow is enabled for public access

39. Recap
● Feature Service Webhooks allow for the
monitoring of Adds, Updates & Deletes
● Feature Service Webhooks must be created
through the ArcGIS Server Administrator
Directory
● Feature Service Webhooks can only be
created by admins or members with the
Feature layer privilege
● Editing Capabilities must be enabled on the
Feature Service

42. Key Points
● Using webhooks, FME can start another
process whenever an ArcGIS Server
geoprocessing service completes
● Geoprocessing webhooks are created in
ArcGIS Server, not Portal
● Use the custom
ArcGISPortalWebHookDataGetter
transformer to get additional messages

Conclusion

44. Conclusion
● FME Form & Flow make it easy to implement
ArcGIS Enterprise Webhooks
● Organization, Geoprocessing, and Feature
Service Webhooks
● Use the ArcGISPortalWebhookDataGetter
● Networking considerations
○ HTTPS needs to be enabled in both
FME Flow & ArcGIS Enterprise to
communicate with each other
