I’ve tried reviewing results from /schedules. This doesn’t seem to include our schedule triggers in automations.Neither /automations or /automations/{id} return the required information.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Hey Adam, 

The FME Flow API does not allow retrieving the contents of Automations. It will not be possible to do this in this way.

Another approach would be to read the FME Flow application database and consult the fme_automation_node tables to retrieve the triggers, and then perform a join on the fme_automation table to retrieve the automation name. However, I would not recommend directly accessing the contents of the FME Flow database.

What version of FME Flow?

 

In 2025 you can go to schedules and then switch the source to Automations 

 

You can also get details via the rest api

FMEURL/fmeapiv4/schedules?limit=100&offset=0&sourceType=automation

or

FMEURL/fmerest/v3/schedules?includeAutomations=true&limit=-1&offset=-1

depending on version
