Trying to do some chained workspaces, having of course a parent and two other workspaces called by FMEServerJobSubmitter transformer and using 'wait' option as part of this transformer. I.e. an output file of first child workspace will be written to TEMP location which full path name is unknown. According to the article FME Server Workflow Management, when writing out to file-based data format, you can pass a reference to the file between workspaces, using the output_datasets{} list. So this reference is used like a pointer to the unknown location of output file of first workspace by the second FmeServerJobSubmitter as input. Now my question is how to define this as input within a second workspace itself when making/creating a second workspace as the location of input file is still unknown at this point of time?

The workspace wich is caalled with this unkown needs to have a parameter for this.
