On FME server i have a job that has a User parameter. Is it possible for someone else in our organisation, whithout any rights, to run this job and browse to his data (user parameter) and the job continues .

 

In FME server there are url`s to share the job, but the user must have rights to use/access FME server.

Which version of FME Server are you running? FME Server 2019+ has introduced the concept of "apps" which makes it much simpler to configure FME Server to allow users to run jobs without requiring them to login. Access to apps is controlled via tokens. More information on apps can be found here:

If you're running an older version of FME Server then it's still possible to configure for anonymous job running. You do this by granting the "fmeguest" role to the repository.

A very similar question has been asked previously and the answers can be found here:
