Hi All,

 

I tend to use the workspace description parameter to track my overall changes and updates to the workbenches I create. This is handy for me to have a way to track things within the workbench itself, without having to keep notes elsewhere on what i've done. However, it's not exactly easily "user facing" for the others in my organization.

 

I'd like to be able to pull the overview, help and history from the workspace parameters in order to have them exported out alongside the reports that i'm generating if possible.

 

I don't see them stored as standard parameters that FME can fetch in something like ParameterFetcher. Perhaps this information is accessible in the FME python API somehow?

The FMW reader can read the Workspace Properties

I'll just add that there is no functionality in the Python API for this, short of reading and parsing the .fmw yourself, which I wouldn't recommend.
