Question

AttributeManager with limited sets of attributes

I need something like the AttributeManager but it needs to work only on a limited set of attributes.

 

What I need is a transformer that sets values (conditionally) to a handful of attributes. I need the ability to copy paste this box to various places in a workspace or to other workspaces.

 

I’ve been using AttributeManager but the problem is it gets overwhelmed with other attributes and the transformer changes based on the input stream. I need something that’s sort of shielded from what’s in the pipe. These limited set of attributes are common to various workspaces or workflows (eg, datemodified, lastuser, datecreated etc) and are always guaranteed to exist. So naturally I need them handled in a simple, separate transformer that can be reused.

 

Is there any way to achieve this?

 

Thanks

You can use the AttributeCreator for this.

But the attributes are in the stream most of the time and I don’t want to create new. I only want to set the values.
