Which of the following is not a valid Resource location that can be used within workspaces?

• A. Amazon S3 filesystems
• B. Network-based filesystems
• C. A local file system
• D. FME Flow Data folder

Answer: (A)

Resource locations in FME Workspaces define where the workspace looks for files and assets it needs at design and run time. Local file systems and network-based file systems are common resource locations because they point to actual paths accessible from the machine or network. The FME Flow Data folder is also a valid resource location within the Flow environment, used to store and share flow-related assets. Amazon S3 file systems are not used as a Resource location type for workspaces; while you can access S3 data through dedicated readers/writers or connectors, that access is configured directly in the data source path rather than as a workspace resource location.
