I have used the FeatureWriter to save a csv with a dynamic filename of "Name_@Left(@DateTimeNow(),8)" before passing on the features to be used by the Emailer transformer. However I only get a result from the Summary port and nothing in the output port.
If I change the file name so that it doesn't include functions and uses an attribute instead (creating a new attribute to handle the date function before the featurewriter) then I see features in the output port.
+18Hi @envtom It's not possible using a function to make the port name dynamic like the writer itself. However, you could use an attribute value in the CSV file name which will work on the port as well. e.g. with an AttributeManager set
_today to @Left(@DateTimeNow(),8)then in the FeatureWriter set the CSV File Name to
Name_@Value(_today)The output port will appear the same but the feature will come out of it so that it can trigger the Emailer.
