I am hoping that you could start putting the version of FME that a function or transformer was first available in your documentation, tutorials and knowledge base articles on every page. Or a statement of "applies to version yyyy.x" to clarify.


I'm often disappointed that the golden nugget of information that I have found isn't available to me due to our current version of FME Server. So, my idea is to put in brackets the FME version that the functionality first existed with perhaps a dash followed by the FME version this particular item applies to. In a perfect world we would all be using the most recent version of FME possible, but that isn't the reality, especially for us. We are currently on FME Server 2019. All, I'm really looking for is the version of when the ability was first available. For example, I was looking for information on SFTP and found documentation on SFTP Directory. I had to navigate all the way to the top of the documentation to find out that I was looking at 2022 documentation. But that still doesn't tell me when that was first available and whether that is available to me in 2019.
