Is it possible to specify an existing output folder on Google Drive when writing to a Google Fusion table? It always ends up in the root folder (My Drive) for me. I would like to write the table to an existing shared folder to avoid having to share the table when it's written.

I dont think so, but you can create the table, move it via google to the desired location and re import it into the ws.

I guess you can just request support and Safe should pick it up....
I basically only move the final table/map to the desired location and do my testing in the root, this way you only have to move the final product once.

Yes, your solution works ok if it's a one time job. My situation is that I run a workspace weekly on an FME server and don't like having to log in to Google Drive once a week just to move the file.
I tried to truncate the file instead of dropping it, but it seems to be very unstable. The workspace often fails after a few hundred records.

We cannot currently specify a Google Drive folder when creating a new Google Fusion table - I filed a task to look at doing this. If the table exists we can write to it whether or not it is in a folder - but I guess you noticed that.
