I have a workspace running in FME cloud and I would like it to send a response email to the person that submits data through the FME server email address. I am having trouble finding the senders email address so it can be passed as a parameter.

Hi @garydlester, if the FME Server has received an Email via an Email (SMTP or IMAP) Publisher and run the workspace with a Notification Service, the information on the Email including sender's address will be saved into a JSON document. Its file path will be passed through the parameter FME_TOPIC_MESSAGE to the workspace, so you can read the JSON doc and extract required values in the workspace.
See these links to learn about schema of the JSON document.

filenameverification.fmwtmd121617fc-a10523.zipThank you Takashi, I have a follow up question. I loaded this workspace onto the server and the send and receive email works fine but I think I have a scope issue with the attachment parameter. The workspace is supposed to unzip a file and check the internal files for naming convention but I don't think the .zip is being processed. The workspace works tested in workbench. Thanks again

How have you set the SourceDataset_JSON and SourceDataset_PATH parameters when you uploaded the workspace to the FME Server?

 

In my quick test, the ZipExtractor worked fine if I have set "$(FME_TOPIC_MESSAGE)" to the SourceDatasetJSON parameter.

 

Also, make sure if a valid directory path in the disk system is set to the SourceDataset_PATH parameter. For example, I tested with "$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_TEMP)/$(FME_JOB_ID)".

You're the best, I will try this immediately and let you know.
