Hi,

 

I am using FME Server 2020. I have a workspace that is available in a server app. I would like to trigger an automation when that workspace is runned from the server app form.

 

How can I achieve that?

 

Thank you!

This is fairly easy to accomplish, thanks to the notification system in FME Server.

Insert an FMEServerNotifier transformer in your app workspace that triggers a topic that is listened to by your automation. To achieve this, set the automation trigger to type "FME Server Topic notified" and select the topic that is triggered by your app workspace. The automation should then start whenever your workspace is executed.
