FeatureReader: Attributes are not exposed

Hello,

I am using a path and directory reader followed by an attribute filter on the file extension and a FeatureReader and, finally a Writer. I want to use the path_rootname as the basename for the file to be written, but the path_rootname is not available anymore after the FeatureReader (I can see it after the Attribute filter). I have exposed path_rootname in the FeatureReader Reader Parameters and under Output-Attributes to expose but if I add an Inspector after the FeatureReader, the values of path_rootname are <missing>.

Would be happy about any hints!

Hi @ludhil, have you set "Merge Initiator and Result" to the Accumulation Mode parameter in the FeatureReader?

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?
