Hi @apadilla, I think that a quick way is to create and run another workspace which contains:

  1. WorkspaceRunner (Wait for Job to Copmlete: Yes): Run your workspace.
  2. FeatureReader: Read the resulting dataset created by your workspace.
  3. Inspector: Review the dataset with FME Data Inspector.

An alternative to Takashi's suggestion could be

Data -> FeatureWriter -> PythonCaller with arcpy -> FeatureReader -> Inspector

In other words, moving the arcpy code from the shutdown script into the PythonCaller. This way you won't need more than one workspace.
