I’ve seen a few ideas about how to deliver a data download URL after an automation as well as this idea

Run Workspace in an Automation using Data Download service | Community

 

Has anyone used this sort of process before?

  • Automation workspaces writes a file to a FME Resource location
  • The last workspace in the automation triggers an external action which is actually a HTTP Request that triggers an FME Workspace with a filename and email parameter.
  • Filename parameter is used as input for a filecopywriter and is published as a data download service, workspace gets the data download link and emails it to the email address supplied by the parameter

Any possible pitfalls? Anything simpler that I’m missing?
