I am very new to FME and have recently learned the basics of the software. I'm starting to apply some of this knowledge to building workflows and was curious the best way to go about reading in 200+ shapefiles to write to single feature class in a file geodatabase. They all have identical schemas so my thought was to read them in by adding the folder they're stored in, using *.shp as the dataset indicator, and using the Single Merged Feature Type option for the Workflow options. Is this the best way to do this?

That sounds like a good plan. You can also find more information about this here: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Form-Documentation/FME-Form/Workbench/Merging_Similar_Datasets.htm

Great, thank you!
