What would be a work around to filter the features in the FFS reader, similar to other data readers that have the WHERE Clause parameter?
FME Feature Store (FFS) has no WHERE Clause, workaround?

No.. this approach I want to exclude, I have a big FFS file( =long time for reading), that I don't want to read its whole content in order to pick certain records .

Hi,
The query functionality like "WHERE Clause" seems to be available only in a dataset which will be accessed from the reader via middle ware having a query mechanism (typically DBMS: database management system).
I don't think FFS has such a mechanism, unfortunately.

Hi, I imagine you create the ffs file yourself, since it is an FME format. Why not create/prepare different ffs files, with the right TestFilters? Best regards, Jelle
