My long time transformer friend FMEFlowLogFileRetriever is not avaliable in FME 2025. The error asked me to use HTTPCaller to retrieve the job log file. So I used this rest point in the HTTPCaller’s Request URL with GET - https://my-fme-flow-hostname/fmerest/v3/transformations/jobs/@Value(jobid)/log. I tried the Basic and Web Connection authentications, but both gives the error “HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): An error occurred while accessing the URL 'https://my-fme-flow-hostname/fmerest/v3/transformations/jobs/98/log'”. I have no problem publishing using the same Web Connection for the authentication, so don’t understand what the issue is. The jobid = 98 was run successfully on the FME Flow.
