Sorry, not sure how to word this correctly. For example, I have 2 published parameters. First parameter is StateName and second parameter is Cities. If I pick a certain state in the first parameter, could the second parameter (cities) only display cities in that state from the first parameter?

Hi adandeleon0915,
as far as I know, FME reads all the published parameters at the same time before starting any data processing, so I don't think you can get what you are looking for in that way.

Well that's unfortunate... haha thank you very much though for your time!
+2You could use a concatenated value. For example;
Oklahoma City = "OK - Oklahoma City"
Then you can use the filter to find the one you want. Then you only need the 1 parameter.

Would using a choice parameter with a tree option work for you? So you click on a state to expand and then get the cities

I'd have to look into that... Interesting concept. I'd have to see if that works out. Thanks for the feedback!

Just looked into this and it seems to display nicely how you can drill down even further BUT.... the way it displays in FME Server app is just single line options. It doesn't display the way it looks in workbench...
