Hi @wjloy

You can start your Workspace with the option Generate Workspace:

File -> Generate Workspace

Please, set the configuration your Reader and Writer:

After this action, please confirm in OK button and the FME will create for you a Workspace Reader to Writer. Note that the transformer GeometryFilter will be in between the objects Reader and Writer.

Now, in the Writer - please - rename the attribute with strange character:

_@computed_region_bge3_x4j9 to for example computed

 

Attached the Workspace - workspacec-geojson-to-geodb.fmw

Thanks,

Danilo

Yes. You can click on icon engine in the feature type and a window will open and you rename.

Thanks, I was getting an error yesterday when I tried this same approach. I guess I was over thinking it and attribute it to user error :-/.
