Greetings,

 

I used a setting that limits record input to 1,000 records before.

I cannot find the setting to limit FME to read the first 1,000 records??

 

This is useful when testing a FME workbench that has large number of records. If anyone can point out the setting, it would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Clive

You have a max number of features to read in the featurereader.

Most readers (and by extension, the corresponding formats in the FeatureReader) have a setting to limit the number of features/objects/lines/etc. to read. Some also have a limit on the numbers of features to read per feature type, but it's specific to each format.

Hi, you must change the setting of your reader. I had this problem just now while I wanted to run million records from csv files in once.

 

What you must do it's to click in the Edit parameters (red circle), and then go to the Features to Read Parameters, then in the dropdown menu you'll find a field for Max Feature to Read. Ans that is already set as a default value = 1000. Just delete the value, and therefore your workflow will work for all your dataseries.
