When I eventually have a public fme server and extract workbench I want the users to be able to type in GPs to extract by. I almost know how to do this but not quite, its something to do with published parameters.

As you've assumed, I would agree that you could perform this via published parameters.

 

 

For example:

 

- Set up a Creator transformer

 

- Connect it to a 2DPointReplacer

 

- Publish the X and Y parameters within the 2DPointReplacer

 

- Set up a CoordinateSystemSetter and set the coordinate system expected or publish it as well to allow the user to choose.

 

 

To pubilsh transformer parameters in 2013:

 

 - you should be able to click the triangle next to any transformer parameter and click Link to Parameter.

 

 

In earlier versions:

 

- go to the Transformers section in the Navigator

 

- find the transformer

 

- find the right parameter

 

- right click on it

 

- choose to Create a User Parameter.
