Hi,

I have a FME workbench that uses a HTTP caller to download 350 URLs. I then have a CSV file of 67 URLs that I need to download from this 350. I'm wondering is there a way to use a AttributeFilter or Tester etc. to only download these 67 and not the total number. I hope this makes sense. Thanks.

Hi @dunuts, in your current workspace, where are the 350 URLs from? If the 350 URLs were being retrieved from an external table by a reader, I think you can use a CSV reader to read the 67 URLs instead of the 350 URLs and then pass the 67 URLs one by one to the HTTPCaller with the same manner as your current workspace.

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

Thank you, that worked perfectly.
