Hello everyone,

I was trying to create a webhook based on my colleague's workspace, which I want to invoke using an HTTP Send action in an automation. My colleague used group boxes in his script to neatly organize the user parameters.

The strange thing is that when I try to create a webhook from his workspace, the user parameters are not available. However, if I make a copy of his workspace, remove the group boxes, upload it to FME Flow, and then create a webhook based on that version, the user parameters do appear in the webhook URL.

I also tried manually copying the parameters my webhook url to my colleague’s webhook URL to test if it would work, but I received an error. This error does not seem to appear when in the workspaces the user parameters are not grouped within group boxes.

Has anyone experienced this behavior before? Does anyone know if this is a bug—where user parameters placed inside group boxes are not recognized in a webhook?

Yup group parameters has huge problems. I would try to avoid them as much as possible.

They will not work on FME Flow webhooks, and can even break your workspace/custom transformers if you work too much with them. 

​@alexbiz That doesn't sound great.. I guess it looks like that group parameters are yet in its infancy stage. It would probably be good to give feedback to Safe in that matter. I will submit a ticket about this matter some time.

​@alexbiz Do you know by any chance if Group parameters are in general a problem or specific in FME flow?

Which version of FME Server are you using?

I just tried to test it on FME Server 2024.2.2 and my requests seem to work ok. I can confirm though that the published parameters themselves are missing when I initially generate the URL
