Hi All,

I have been building workspaces that get data from an api and write that data to Excel, using Template files. 

FME Flow can’t access the location of the template file, so what I did was: Make them a published parameter and publish. Then once one Flow, I change the parameters to the Flow resources path where I uploaded the template file as well. I do this in the Workspace properties. However, this doesn’t work, when running the workspace, the log says it can’t open the Template File and still pointing to the old/local location of the template file.

What would be the right workflow here?

The workflow sounds good. Are you sure you’re using the parameter in all the places where you’re referring to the template file?

You’re welcome 😉 I’d be lying if I said I’ve never had that happen to me 😅
