Hi,
I would like for my workspace to run automatically each time a row is added to a postgis table, but can't figure out how to do this.
I took a look at the Directory Watch Publisher and also at this article: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/806/push-data-out-of-databases-to-fme-server-in-real-t.html but I don't really understand how to proceed.
Thank you

The directory watcher is to look for files in a directory, you cannot use it to look in a database table.
A possible solution to your specific scenario could be to write an insert trigger in PostGIS that somehow sent a message to FME Server, triggering a workspace subscription.
This is described in quite a lot of detail here:

Thank you for your help. This actually is the article I have been reading.
When I look at the "Single Feature Trigger Demo Overview" part I am interested in parts 3 to 5.
What I don't understand is that it is mandatory to create an HTTP request. Isn't there some kind of database listener in FME server?

As far as I know there is not, I suspect because this is handled very differently from one database to another.

Ok, thank you for your reply
