I want to automate the process of downloading and reading the GNAF dataset from www.data.gov.au

This is open data, so anyone can download it.

GNAF is the Geocoded National Address File

https://data.gov.au/dataset/ds-dga-19432f89-dc3a-4ef3-b943-5326ef1dbecc/details?q=GNAF

The particular dataset I want is the zip file "MAY 2020 - PSMA G-NAF(ZIP)" (though of course, next month, the title will change)

https://data.gov.au/data/dataset/19432f89-dc3a-4ef3-b943-5326ef1dbecc/resource/4b084096-65e4-4c8e-abbe-5e54ff85f42f/download/may20_gnaf_pipeseparatedvalue.zip

Can FME download the zip file and then read the files within?
