I’m not sure what version of FME Flow this feature was removed in, but in versions prior to 2023.1, there used to be a “Reset” button on the Schedules page so if any parameters were changed in the FME Workspace, you can just press the “Reset” button and it would automatically update the parameters based on the workspace.

That functionality is now gone, which makes it slightly more difficult and inconvenient to update schedules.

You can see in the screenshot below, that I took from an FME Server 2018 training manual, that the “Reset” button exists. 

But in this screenshot below in our FME Flow 2023.1 environment, the “Reset” button is not there.

 

While it’s not a big deal, it is a minor inconvenience and I’d like to understand the logic behind Safe removing this functionality.

Interesting, I wonder if changing the workspace, then change back to the original will give the same result as clicking reset?

I just tried that and confirmed that changing the workspace in the schedule to something else, then changing it back to the original workspace does NOT update the parameter.

The only way it will update the parameter (without manually changing it) is if I create a brand schedule. Then by default, it has the updated parameter.

@ryanuthoff, @hkingsbury I had the same problem. I found a solution, without making a new schedule. After you switch to another workspace, press the “OK” Button in the schedule. This will save it and you leave the page. Afterwards reenter the schedule and switch back to the desired workspace and hit the “OK” Button again. This loaded for me the new parameters from the workspace into the schedule.

I hope this also works for you.

I still prefer the “Reset” Button though.
