Hi,

I've been looking for some documentation on FME Data Express with no luck. Specifically I'm looking for what published parameters are supported by Data Express.

Some of my published parameters in a workspace has the label [unsupported] added to them when I open the workspace in Data Express.

It would be great help to know which types of published parameters are supported.

Hi @danielhamngren,

We are still working on our documentation. However, here is a list of all published parameters supported. Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

As of v 1.3.2, the following published parameters are supported in the app:

  • Workbench 2020 types:

    • Attribute List (comma delimited)

    • Attribute List (ordered)

    • Attribute List (space delimited)

    • Attribute Name

    • Coordinate System Name

    • Filename (Existing)

    • Password - app does not support “default” password values

    • Text

    • Text (Multiline)

    • Text (Multiline) Or Number

    • URL

    • Date

    • Date/Time - app does not support setting “seconds & milliseconds” yet

    • Filename (Multiple)

    • Choice (Multiple)

    • Choice with Alias (Multiple)

    • Web Connection

    • Number

    • Choice

    • Choice or Text

    • Choice with Alias

  • Special parameter types:

    • QR code - via “Text” type published parameter

    • Barcode - via “Text” type published parameter

    • Location - via “Text” type

      • to use this parameter type, prefix the name of the parameter with “FMEEXPRESS_LOCATION_”

  • These older parameter types have been known to work. However, they are being deprecated:

    • INTEGER

    • INT

    • FLOAT

    • STRING

    • FILEMUSTEXIST

    • CHOICE_OR_TEXT

    • FLOAT_OR_CHOICE

    • INT_OR_CHOICE

    • MULTICHOICE

    • FILE_OR_URL

    • DATE_TIME
