Hello, I am relatively new to FME and try to extract a certain file from a downloaded ZIP file. From this particular file, all I know is that it contains a particular string. I realize that you could do all this by hand, but I would like to automate the workflow because it is quite common. One possibility would be to unzip this file with a system caller, but then I am overwhelmed how to proceed without adding a new reader to the Workbench.
Solved
unzipping a specific file of a zip and working with these file

Hi @alfons,
You could add a FeatureReader after the SystemCaller or....
Just use the regular reader and let FME unzip the file.
