I have a kml with the attributes 'kml_additional_files{0}.href' and 'kml_additional_files{0}.path' filled with filenames and -paths.

I want to place the locations (points) as objects in a local database with the filename(s) in an attribute to these locations. But I can't find how to do this.

I'm using FME desktop 2017.1

Hi @maartjekuijten, I think a general approach is to apply the ListExploder to the list in order to extract every list element as non-list attributes.

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?

Hi @takashi I know the ListExploder, but I can not choose for these lists... I can only see these attributes in the Inspector and don't know how to extract them.

Found it! Used the AttributeExposer to expose the attributes. Thanks for thinking with me.
