Make Workbench call to prompt for parameters

Hello:

 

 

I have this code on my python shutdown script. I am invoking a second workbench, but I would like FME to prompt for the parameters upon execution, so the second workbench runs with its own parameters, according to whatever the client decides to enter:

 

 

import pyfme import os import subprocess   logger        = pyfme.FMELogfile() fmeExecutable = os.path.normpath(FME_MacroValues['FME_HOME'])+'\\fme.exe' workBench     = os.path.normpath(FME_MacroValues['Workbench_To_Run'])          # initiate materialized view refresh if changes to either source if FME_TotalFeaturesWritten > 0:   logger.log('Eecutable '+ fmeExecutable)   logger.log('Updates detected, executing materialized view refresh script - ' + workBench)   args = [fmeExecutable, workBench]   p = subprocess.Popen(args)

 

 

Unfortunately, the call to the second workbench runs with the default parameters, and never prompts for values. How can I :

 

 

- Make FME to prompt for the parameters in the second workbench or:

 

- Prompt for the parameters in the first workbench and pass them onto the second workbench?

 

 

Any help, will be much appreciated,

 

 

Thanks,
