Hello, so we have now switched from Server to Flow and all is good and great except from one bit, and that is there have been made some changes between these versions that have made my emailer workarounds from Server useless.

So what we did before is that we just set up the Emailer in the workspaces and sent automatic answers in the ‘Body’ section of the Emailer such as:

p>Hello Colleague</p>

<p>Here is your GeoJson to DWG/Shapefile datapackage:
<a href="$(FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR)">Click me to download</a></p>

Where the ‘$(FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR)’ was the download link for the result and it worked very well.

But now on Flow it doesnt work, the email sends and all but there is no value being fed into the ‘a href’ so now download hyperlink for the message.

What has changed here, is it only the value for the URL and if so what value should I be referring to now to get the result data on flow downloadable?

If this has now been made very different then what should I be doing differently?

To be clear, we set up the Emailer like this in the workspace and then it worked fine on Server without any adaptation, and we would very much want to keep it that way still on Flow :)
