Sharing a repository with a user means they will only have access to the workspaces, but not the data.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not sure
• D. Sometimes

Answer: (B)

In FME, a repository is a container for the resources that a workspace uses, including the workspaces themselves and the data connections or data resources those workspaces reference. Sharing a repository with a user grants access to all resources stored there, so data connections and any data included in the repository can be accessed if the user has permissions to those data sources. The ability to work with the data depends on the underlying data permissions and the location of the data, not solely on the act of sharing the repository. So, the idea that a shared repository gives access only to workspaces and excludes data isn’t accurate.
