Question

Providing additional information when asking a question

Hi there,

 

This community is growing very fast and there are many questions asked with many answers. It is really great. There are a few remarks/requests that come around very often though which are:

1. Which version of FME are you using?

2. Would you be able to share your workspace?

 

3. Can we have some samples of your data?

 

 

It would be great if these could be mentioned at the beginning of the question along with other information, especially the version of FME as some versions may do what other don't.

Just a thought.

 

 

Regards,

Lyes.

I like that idea very much. I'll see if we can post a note somewhere about how to ask a good question.

Perhaps it would be easier to have the text box pre-populated with a small template, please check this video:

Keeping the subject line short and clear (and not put the entire question in there) will help too.
