I have a workspace set up to terminate based on parameters that it has failed on. Is there any way for a message to come up as to why it failed that isn't in the log? Primarily for users running it that don't understand the log file and how to read through it so that they know why it failed?

Hi Chris,

You possibly need to add logger(s) transformer within your workspace. Logged at its parameters in the documentation. You can set severity levels of warning and error, add a custom message or pass in the fme attributes, incl @value(errordetails) which many transformers output

The terminator transformer can be placed at a point in your workspace where the processing might fail. For example coming out of a rejected port, you can then add a message that will display in fme server as an error.
