Workspace App as Trigger

Just having a Trigger that gets a notification when a Workspace App is run.

I know perfectly this is possible through an FMEFlowNotifier and a Topic trigger or alternatively an HTTPCaller and a Webhook trigger, I just don’t find it intuitive enough. I recently got a couple of users asking me this very same question and I think this could be done much easier. Besides, right now you have to maintain your notification system in 3 different places: the workspace, the topic and the automation.

There’s already some questions in the community about this, which I think it shows it’s not that easy:

And no, an Automation App is not the same because it can’t be used together with a data streaming or data download service.

This would be super helpful. I’m actually running into this issue as well. Need Automation App to get trigger when certain Workspace App ran.

Now there are FME Flow AR apps, having an automation app that has more options aligned within the FME platform, that make it easier to chain workflows together, would be much appreciated
