How to pull User name and todays date in autocad to FGDB?
I am trying to expose user name in autocad and the date that I run FME workbench (todays Date). Is there a way to do this?

Hi,
I'm not sure whether user name of AutoCAD can be fetched.
About getting current date, you can use the TimeStamper transformer.
In addition, there is an interesting usage of the DateFormatter. The DateFormatter converts some attribute value (e.g. "today", "tomorrow" etc.) to date string. See here.
