I am passing comma separated list of table names to workbench. It's working fine. Just want to make sure is there any limit on number of characters in parameter. Currently I am passing about 5 table names as a parameter(about 40 characters). So just want to make sure if I need to pass say 100 table names will it support those many characters. Also I am publishing this workbench to FME server.
Cheers
it depeneds on how you're passing the published parameters to FME, but if they're comming from the command line subsystem, there is a limit of 8191 characters in total on windows systems.

You might want to pass a string with, let's say, 100 dummy table names and check inside the workspace that the published parameter contains the expected number of characters for your scenario.

the short answer is that an URL is limited to about 2000 characters. Long answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/417142/what-is-the-maximum-length-of-a-url-in-different-browsers
You might want to pass the parameters in the message body (POST) rather than in the URL (GET) if you have lots of data, though.
But again, the proof is in the pudding: nothing beats testing on your target system, using realistic test cases :-)
