Hello.

i have simple workflow to update Access MDB content.

it starts with SQL creator to define the queries and end up with SQL Executor to write down all the attribute manipulations and the end.

Works fine in workbench as it updates existing MDB file and therefore there is no Writer placed at the end.

Im seeking an advice how to update this to be able to publish it to FME cloud so the Cloud returns the updated MDB file.

as this MDB file is uploaded at the beginning, it still exists and being updated somewhere in the temp folder of the FME Cloud so it should be easy just to request it with some transformer at the end and provide it as a result. can you advice me what transformer can do it for me?

You may be out of luck: Access MDB is only supported on Windows and FME Cloud runs on Linux.
