I like to write the ouput of a transformer to a new esri file geodatabase using FME 2015. I use the Writer Esri Geodatabase (File Geodb API) and for Parameters a template is asked. I point to a Template.gdb

Next is again asked for a gdb but if the fgdb does not exists yet, the same applies for a Dataset. How to import into a new fgdb and new feature class with FME 2015.
