FME(R) 2023.1.1.0 (20230928 - Build 23631 - WIN64)

I have a simple scripted parameter script in workbench to return the value of a deployment parameter and I’m wondering if there’s a bug in the interface. When I drag a user parameter onto the script canvas the code generated contains FME_MacroValues, eg.

FME_MacroValuesa'SomeUserParam']

If  I drag a deployment parameter, dpTest, onto the script canvas the code generated looks like

$(dpTest)

Here’s the script. The commented code fails; if I manually correct $(dpTest) to FME_MacroValuesa'dpTest'], it runs:

 

# Get the archive folder from deployment param
import fme

#arch = $(dpTest)
#return arch

return FME_MacroValuesM'dpTest']

 

Is this a bug? Thanks.

Hi @joaniegeo99, thanks for reporting this! It is indeed a bug. We’ll get that fixed for a future release of FME. The workaround, as you’ve already found, is to manually correct the parameter format in the script. Apologies for any confusion and inconvenience this caused.

Please note that this has been fixed in FME 2024.1 b24555+
