Hello!

I have a layer in AGOL named "park furniture".

I want to make a backup via FME to a FGDB named the same.

Im wondering if there is any example of a workspace were i can see wich transformers i need to use if i want to make a backup from a feature layer in AGOL to a FGDB.

I dont have any schema in the FGDB but want to use the one from AGOL and also transfer the domains and attachments straight into the FGDB.

 

Or is it better to make a copy in Arcgis Pro first and the keep overwrite/update the FGDB.

Multiple ways to do this.

 

I think the easiest way is to use a FeatureReader to read all records (generic) and a FeatureWriter to write those (dynamic) to a featureclass with the schema from AGOL.
