I have been trying to create 4 feature datasets inside 1 file geodatabase using FME, but it looks like in FME there is no option to create an Esri feature dataset. When I have opened the feature writer, I don’t see an option to select feature dataset.

I have a lot of shapefiles that I want to organize by province represented by the Esri Feature datasets and inside each feature dataset there will be points, lines, and polygons (it is not just one type of geometry).

Do you know if that’s even possible in FME?

This documentation should be helpful. https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Form-Documentation/FME-ReadersWriters/geodatabase/feature_dataset.htm


Thanks, Dustin, for your response! I am new in FME, and I was wondering if there is any tutorial-lesson that shows how to do that. 

The article above shows: “using the format attribute geodb_feature_dataset (deprecated in FME 2023.1+)”
