Which parameters give the end-user control over how a workspace runs?

• A. Published Parameters
• B. Private Parameters
• C. FME Server Parameters
• D. Transformer Parameters

Answer: (A)

The ability for an end user to influence how a workspace runs comes from Published Parameters. These are the parameters you expose from a workspace so that someone running it (for example, via FME Server or FME Cloud) can provide values at runtime. The user-facing form lets them set things like input choices, output locations, thresholds, or toggles, and those values override the defaults when the workspace executes. This makes the run flexible without editing the workspace itself.

Private Parameters are not shown to end users, so they cannot control a run directly. Transformer Parameters control specific transformers inside the workflow, but they’re internal unless you explicitly publish them as Published Parameters. FME Server Parameters isn’t a separate standard concept here; the practical mechanism for end-user runtime control is publishing parameters.
