Hi,

I am trying to retrieve FME Cloud Instance ID to be utilized on the FMECloudInstanceController transformer, but it seems that it is not available through the Server UI.

How am I able to retrieve them? Server API?

Thanks!

John

I figured it out. There is no easy way to retrieve it through the UI anyway.

You need to leverage FME Cloud API to retrieve it.

Attached is a simple process that will retrieve IDs once you provide the Token.

Another option according to FME Experts is to leverage the FMECloudInstanceLister, which will do the same job in a more streamlined process.
