I have data going through feature writer that creates my csv, that then is uploaded to azure file storage using its connector in fme, once I successfully upload the csv, I want to delete that file from FME_DATASOURCE where I wrote it in the earlier step. How can I do that ?

Another solution that I discovered myself is, [Good thing that I was keeping exploring other transformers present]
After creating the csv using featurewritter I used a list exploder that helped me having each file name generated into its own feature value, that I used later to delete the respective file from the area using File Deleter transformer where I created them DYNAMICALLY.
It will be helpful for anyone who might have a similar query.

When I do this I use the TempPathnameCreator to create a path to temp files, write the csv to the temp path and upload it. This way the source file will be cleaned automatically. Alternatives are SystemCaller, PythonCaller or FileCopyWriter.
