I currently struggling to get the wanted attribute output in my Writer(FGDB).

This is a brief of the current work-space.

 

Reader (Excel Spreadsheet with file-paths) into a Feature Reader (using User Parameters created from the Excel) -Then into A Feature Writer (FGDB using user parameters from the Excel). This currently runs and works however the features created only contains the data/attributes from excel file, I want only the attributes from the feature-class. When Inspecting the Feature reader there is the attributes from the loaded features but I cant interact with them using any known transformers atm.

Any suggestions?

As I understand correctly, the attributes of the features read are only visible in de Feature Inspection window in the Data Inspector.

If that is the case, you should expose your attributes either in the FeatureReader transformer or you should use an AttributeExposer transformer to make the attributes visible in your workspace.
