I have a workspace in FME Form 2021. It includes an Automation Writer. This writer writes keys from FME Form to my Automation in FME Flow 2021, 

 

Given this is the 1st time I have pushed FME Attributes into an Automation as Keys, just being curious, I clicked on the “View Written Data” icon in the Automation Writer. It gave some errors and a new windows opened with red in the parameter boxes. It would seem wise to disable this icon when a Automation Writer is chosen. Are there any plans to do this?

 

This does not impact my workspace or Automation. It just seems a bit annoying, unless I am missing something?

 

See my screenshots for a better illustration of what I see happening:

Hi @vxn43,

You are correct, this will not impact your automation or workspace. This is happening as the automations writer is not writing anything and is only sending data directly to FME Flow so there is no data to view. We do have a ticket filed regarding this (FMEFORM-15351) but there are no active plans to disable this icon for the automations writer.
