Hi,

 

I'm really new to FME, and am a little confused about how to do something.

 

I have an existing automation built by an integrator that parses some emails for specific text. those are then bundled up various ways and sent out to various entities via email.

 

I want to also send an API request with some of that data in it - the vendor i'm sending it to doesn't support a login auth, just tokens, though so i ended up making a workspace to send the call.

 

However, i'm kind of confused as to how i get the outputs from the previous workspace into this one?

 

I see the output keys from the writer, but, I don't understand how to get those keys into the next "run a workspace"

My schema for the API looks like:

{

    "version": "v1",

    "alert_text": "route.Email**#.RAWMESSAGE",

    "title": "route.Email**#.AlarmName",

    "IsTicker": false,

    "lifetime": "1d",

    "computers": Â"MACHINENAME","MACHINENAME"]

}

 

where route. ______ is a previous output key from the upstream workspace.

 

this doesn't seem to work, though.

 

I'm assuming i need to somehow read the output keys into features in the workspace, but i'm not really sure how?

 

 

 

Forgot to add, when i add the "run a workspace" to the automation, i don't see the dropdown for parameters and maybe that is the issue, but i'm also not sure how to get that dropdown?

it looks like the part i was missing was defining those features are user attributes in the new workspace. Once I did that, i was able to map the upstream output keys to the downstream workspace action.
