Hallo FME community,

I want to know how to overwrite existing shapefile file and FGDB. With CSV it's clear but with shapefile and FGDB I can't find an option to overwrite.

 

 

Existing shape files are overwritten automatically.

See https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/shapefile/shapefile.htm

 

The FGDB writer has a separate option to overwrite an existing FGDB, otherwise it will append to it.

See https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/geodatabase/GEODATABASE_FILE_writer.htm
