Which statement is true about email attachments in FME Server?

• A. FME Server cannot make use of email attachments.
• B. FME Server can make use of email attachments.
• C. FME Server supports only image attachments.
• D. FME Server never processes attachments.

Answer: (B)

Email attachments can be used by FME Server as part of automated workflows. When you configure an email-triggered task, the incoming message and its attachments become available to the workspace, so you can read, transform, and write them just like any other input file. Attachments aren’t limited to images; they can be many formats that FME supports (CSV, Excel, shapefiles, PDFs, CAD, etc.), depending on the readers you have in your workspace. This enables practical ingestion of data sent via email, which is why this statement is true.
