I have a set of data which contains an attribute name (header/title) which I have to use an an attribute value for a new attribute. At the moment, I am using attribute creator to create a new attribute and then attribute manager to add this to existing data. However I am unable to set the new attribute value as one of the attribute name of existing data (which I read in using reader transformer). Any help will be highly appreciated.
Question
How to set a new attribute value which is also an attribute?

Now you can see the result in the Data Inspector, but in the Feature Information window only, as it is an unexposed attribute.
To see the attribute in the table / workspace, you need to expose it as well. You can do this using an AttributeExposer.
The other data however needs to remain the same. I was using random generator so thats why the numbers changed.
