It seems as if currently there is no possibility to populate a choice parameter dynamically, based on scripted parameters. To illustrate the idea a bit...


Offering our clients the possibility to convert geo-data from our database into CAD files we need to know what datasets are available to choose from. Having a Python script returning the table names of the database is easy enough, but then the choice parameter does not take the list to select from.


Hence, it would be very nice if we could offer a choice list that's more dynamic.

The ability to have a choice dynamically populate from a sql query would be great! And then even a second choice narrow down based on selection in the first choice.

This would be an awesome and welcomed addition to FME.
