I’ve been building some automations in FME Flow with optional parameters (date or numeric fields) that can either be filled or be blank when run outside of an automation.

 

When I try to save an automation with one of these optional parameters filled in, it saves fine, but as soon as I try to save an automation with a blank optional parameter, it loads forever and doesn’t commit the change. As I've said, it seems to affect date and numeric fields.

 

Has anyone else come across this issue before?

 

Currently have 2021.1 (upgrading soon)

I tried to reproduce this (FME Server 2022.2.5) and there were no issues with date or numeric fields when set to optional.

 

I did a little bit of digging into some old change logs for FME 2022 and found this:

------------------------------
 
FME 2022.0.0.0 b22281 20220208

>Fix] Automation Bug: optional date parameter left blank causes Automation saving to fail

(https://downloads.safe.com/fme/2022/whatsnew_server_2022_0_1.txt) 

 

Looks like you found a bug which has already been fixed. good luck with the upgrade....
