Hi,

I have setup a really nice example of the data delivery on FME server using this example code - https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1117/data-distribution-with-web-maps.html. Ihave also made the guest account token the init for the FME javascript.

I have setup a simple form to authenticate in the example the user using the token service however struggling to replace the init token with the users token when the FMEServer.runDataDownload method runs.

Any attempt to overwrite the variable token resorts to running the job under the guest account.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?

Hi @takashi I have successfully done that and replaced the 'token' var in code with the new token but somehow it looks like the FMEServer.runDataDownload only remembers the init token for the JS and not the authenticated user.

You have to generate a new token at very first then call the FMEServer.init method using the new token.
