Adding data to the FME Flow Resources Data folder is the same as using a temporary upload when you publish a workspace.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Partially
• D. Unknown

Answer: (B)

The distinction being tested is between a persistent Flow resource and a temporary publish-time upload. Adding data to the FME Flow Resources Data folder creates a lasting resource inside Flow that can be reused by multiple workspaces and across sessions. It stays stored in Flow and is referenced by any workspace that needs it, making it ideal for datasets you access repeatedly.

A temporary upload during publishing, by contrast, is just data packaged with that particular publish. It isn’t stored as a reusable resource in Flow and isn’t automatically available to other workspaces. It serves to include data for that specific publish, but it doesn’t provide the long‑term, reusable accessibility that the Resources Data folder offers.

So they are not the same: the Resources Data folder is for persistent, reusable data assets, while a temporary upload is for one-off inclusion at publish time.
