Using Data Interoperability in ArcGIS Pro - Is there a way to pass attribution from selected features in a map/table to the ETL tool?

Edit--
Use Scenario: A data editor using a map in ArcGIS PRO selects a feature or multiple features. The globalids of the selected features are then passed onto the ETL toolbox and subsequently, the FME workspace performs a translation with just the selected features.

Hi janryjkr, I think what you are asking is in Workbench is

  • Tester or TestFilter inputting a condition to filter the incoming features to output ports you specify (pass/fail or customise)
  • Connect the output port with the selection, to a writer destination format (specify the feature type as the table name),
    • does the table exist - consider the feature operation Insert. Update etc and whether table operation is to truncate existing or use existing. 
    • table doesn’t exist - use the table operation Create If Needed

I suggest reviewing this article https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407430413837-Tutorial-Getting-Started-with-FME-Desktop and completing the FME Academy basic course work, seek out the database writing to understand how to write to map/table

No. I am asking how to integrate Data Interoperability with active selection in APRX document.

Not aware such functionality exists from the ESRI end. If it does, I’m keen to know of it.

As far as I know, Esri only allows you to launch a New or existing FMW workbench file.
