Hello Everyone, 

I wonder if folks might be able to help with troubleshooting ideas for a Scripted Selection that I am trying to put together. I am trying to dynamically read a SharePoint List using a web connection. When the sharepoint is read users get to choose from the list of records. I can get his working in Form but when published to Flow I do not get a dropdown[v] or list selector [...]. Am I missing a trigger or something? Thanks a bunch for reading.

Hi ​@crutledge

I’m really sorry but it looks like there is currently no way to render those scripted parameters in FME Flow. I believe sometime in the 2025 release cycle we should see some new features that will help with this, however, that’s still in development so I can’t promise much at this time. 

What you could do now is break this up into two workspaces instead of one. 

The first workspace gets all the sharepoint content and displays it as a multi-select list for the user. Using some custom HTML you can build out a webhook which will trigger the next workspace.

The second workspace is the one that handles the data processing. 

The GIF below is an example of what this could look like. I’ll also attach my example workspace too.

Ah the Power of Streams. Thanks so much for looking into this Sienna. And yes, very much looking forward to passing parameters in 2025!

I appreciate you putting the time into the example. Off to now to try it out.😀
Best,

Clifford.
