Hi,

I'm trying to send an email with an attachment where the attachment comes from a shared resource.

$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATAADA)/Rapporttoattach.xlsx

I'm using this workflow

I receive the email but without the attachment. The shared resource does exist.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot why the attachment doesn't arrive?

Thanks,

Annette

I think that workflow uses the FMEServerEmailGenerator custom transformer. Since then the Emailer has been introduced, have you tried that one?

Hi Annette,

I encountered similar issue few years ago but it was on FME Server 2015. The problem came because of the custom shared resource. They were not initialised when I worked with Controller/Worker workspaces. In the Controller, the macro was initialised but in the worker it remained blank.

If you use a ParameterFetcher followed by a logger can you see if your macro is well set?
