Business case: downloading a folder from the share data folder in FME server is not an option in 2017. It forces the user to select all individual files to download.

My Scenario:

I have a project that needed to run 3 models with a Job submitter service as I was writing back to the Shared Data folder. The second model takes the out put from the first as input, then the 3rd takes the results form the second to run.-- for technical reasons I couldn't get everything in the same model. It would have been nice to be able to also download the zipped folder as each step ran so that the user can see the data transforming at each step.

    @gerry Downloading an entire folder from the FME Server Shared Resources can be done via the FME Server REST API. There is a workspace attached in this Q&A for this:

    I am not sure if this helps in your scenario because to download the data it needs to run on the client machine and not on FME Server, but it might give you ideas on how to incorporate the REST API in your workflows.
