Connect FME and map.apps

Establish the connection between FME Flow and map.apps in different ways:

  • ETL Proxy

  • security.manager EE generic URL protection (deprecated)

  • map.apps proxy (deprecated)

ETL Proxy

The ETL proxy servlet is an additional server component designed to handle various integration scenarios between map.apps and FME Flow. This is the most versatile option and should be used in most scenarios. The following authentication options can be used:

  • Identity Service (starting from map.apps 4.15.0)

    • including Keycloak, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Portal

  • oAuth (bevor map.apps 4.15.0)

    • including Keycloak, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Portal

  • security.manager EE (deprecated)

  • No authentication (guest mode)

security.manager EE generic URL protection (deprecated)

The security.manager EE generic URL protection is a default functionality of security.manager that doesn’t require any additional installations. However, it shouldn’t be used if you want to protect more than one FME Flow URL or if you want to upload larger files to FME Flow.

map.apps proxy (deprecated)

Using the map.apps proxy is often the easiest solution. However, it should only be used for apps that are publicly available and do not require any authentication.
