FME Flow Parameters

FME Flow parameters reference FME Flow system settings when a workspace is run from FME Flow. These parameters may be useful when testing or debugging a workspace that is going to be run from FME Flow.

If the workspace that is currently open uses any FME Flow parameters, they are listed first in the Navigator. Any other FME Flow parameters that are not referenced in the workspace are listed under Unreferenced.
