On FME Cloud the WebSocket server is configured to use the secure WebSocket protocol WSS via the default SSL port 443. This allows us to keep the port 7078, which is used for web sockets in a default FME Server installation, closed. For more details on this please check out this blog article.
Since 443 is a default port, it doesn't need to be specified in our WebSocket transformers. Instead, a secure WebSocket connection can be established by simple using a URL like this:
wss://<your_server>.fmecloud.com/websocket
