Hi, If using the ESRI ArcGIS Portal (web connection using single sign on) reader. If your password changes on your account does this mean the reader will fail unless you re-authenticate or will no action be required?

Hi @chris28ouchman​, yes, if your account credentials change then you'll have to re-authenticate. You can do this by right-clicking on the reader in the Navigator pane, selecting Update Reader, and then Parameters. I hope this helps!

Thanks - Imagine then if the wb was published to fme server the wb would need be republished after the reader has been updated.

Hi @chris28ouchman​, for FME Flow (Server) you shouldn't need to republish anything; you should be able to just reauthorize the existing connection if it stops working.
