Solved

I want to create an FME app where a user can upload a dataset, and it will tell them what the coordinate system of the dataset is. I can build the workbench to find out what the coord sys is, but how can I present this information to the user?

I don't really want the user to have to download a text file containing the information, then have to open it to find out the answer. I'm hoping to be able to present this to them via the apps webpage but I can't find out how to do this. Is it possible? Do I need to do something with the HTML writers?

 

Thanks,

Dave

Yes, you can use a HTMLReportGenerator, writing out to HTML and then register the workspace with the Data Streaming service, that'll send the HTML output directly back to the web browser, which then handles it.

Thanks @Hans van der Maarel​. This is just what I needed.
