I would like to change the name of my data download zip (FME_xxxxxxx.zip) to something else. Is it possible to change this on the FME cloud instance?

So how or where can i edit the file layout configuration file that can manage [AUTO_FILE_PREFIX <file_prefix> \\]?

If searched for it but could only find solution that needed the terminal on a FME Server that was not FME Cloud.

FME Engines

 

Filename: fmeEngineConfig.txt

 

Location: <FMEServerDir>\\Server\\

 

Purpose: Configure the FME Engines, including subsections, pre and post commands, and success and failure responses. For details, see Configuration File Layout.

Hi @JeroenR, I don't know if we can edit the configuration files for an FME Server instance on FME Cloud.

In my observation, FME Server on Cloud saves a destination zip file resulting from a Data Download Service into this resource directory

/data/fmeserver/resources/system/temp/engineresults/
and the download URL "https://<your FME Server domain>/fmedatadownload/results/" is mapped to the directory above.Therefore, for example, if you create this zip file with a Job Submitter Service
/data/fmeserver/resources/system/temp/engineresults/$(FME_JOB_ID)/result.zip
 you can then download the zip file through this URL, theoretically.
https://<your FME Server domain>/fmedatadownload/results/<Job ID>/result.zip

Note it's not documented anywhere. Should say a kind of hack. I hope someone from Safe confirms that it would work fine in also the future.

Hi. Currently, it is not possible to update this parameter on FME Cloud. As you elude to, you need to access the configuration file on the instance itself. I suggest you file a new Idea on the knowledge site for this piece of functionality so we can gauge interest. I will discuss it internally to assess the complexity. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful at this point. Thanks.
