Has anyone else noticed when creating a list using the AttributeExploder it truncates the last two characters of the list name, resulting in complications when using a ListExploder downstream because the list doesn’t exist.

Using the default settings:

Default List Settings in the AttributeExploder Transfomer

 The resulting list:

List Name Is Truncated In Feature Information

 

This broke a workspace that was previously working. It was a niggly one to catch as the only thing that had changed was the FME version.

As a workaround, we created a user parameter which had the default value “_attr_li{}” and used that in the ListExploder which worked.

 

FME Form version:

FME(R) 2024.1.1.0 (20240729 - Build 24619 - WIN64)
