Hi I got this successfully working but seems things to have gone backward and I cannot figure out why my second http caller won't download the files. Hopefully someone can offer a quick solution.

That's weird, things going backward just like that... :-)

Can you please tell us a little more about changes that have been applied (by you or by others) in between the moment the workspace was still working successfully and now? What error message does the second HTTPCaller generate?

I added a Sampler (to just download 1 file) and I did change the setting Create a new File Per Feature to 'Yes'. This allowed me to download the file without any problem.

Hi there this is the error I am getting. I have tried the create new file per feature and it works but the filenames come out like this

imageThe change I tried were to add a zip extractor after the second httpcaller. Even when I remove the zip extractor it gave me errors. The other thing I did was to delete the files from the output folder before I ran the workbench and this is when I hit issues. I did upgrade fme from 2021 to fme 2022.0.0.2.
