I need to extract TAB or Shape file from S3 and read data from it including schema.

I have discovered in this article

https://community.safe.com/data-7/how-to-extract-the-actual-shapefile-from-featurereader-geometry-and-attributes-14548?tid=14548&fid=7

that FeatureReader apparently can’t read all attributes that are in the file, until I expose them. But what is I don’t know the list of all attributes? I don’t know what exactly will be uploaded by other people to S3 bucket, I just need to read the file. 

 

Could you help, please, to identify the correct settings of FeatureReader or another way to extract data?

Hi @marias 

 

Most readers can select a file from a web/cloud location.

 

If you need to work with the Schema after reading in the data, you can then try the SchemaScanner transformer.

 

Let me know if this works for you.
