Question

It seems not working to use 'User Parameter' as the 'Selected Attributes' for the Matcher transformer.

Hi there,

I tried to use a ‘User Parameter’ as the ‘Selected Attributes’, but it didn’t work. As you can see the first screenshot below, the HU100 are different between two input resources with GEOID 00037. However, they are listed in the 'Matched' tab. If I use hard coded text 'GEOID HU100' as the 'Selected Attributes', then the Matcher will work fine and the two records will go to 'NotMatched' tab (see the second screenshot below). Could anybody tell me what's wrong with the 'User Parameter'?

@andylct​ Make sure you create the parameter in the Matcher, then you're sure you're getting the correct parameter type. Check your parmmeter values by adding a ParameterFetcher transformer.

By the way, I will suggest the FME developers to exclude the User Parameters that were not created within the Matcher from the options of its selection box. It's kind of defect of listing invalid options.
