Maybe someone has experienced this before, i have been trying to make an workspace App in fme FLOW 2023, the goal is to make an app where the user can choose the source file. I have tried creating the App but it does not allow the user to choose the file location.

does someone have an idea what i may be missing out? I am using the FME PATH reader.

 

Thanks,

Keller.

You can create a File/Folder/URL User Parameter (make sure it is a published parameter) in the workspace and use that to define the reader’s source path, before publishing to Flow. This should enable you to select files from the resources available to Flow or upload a file.

The Path Reader will read in a folder with the files and folders contained within it becoming features. If you actually want a file read in, you will want the appropriate Reader/FeatureReader for that file type.
