Which statement describes the purpose of a linked custom transformer?

• A. To define an organization-wide process that should be conducted the same way in all workspaces
• B. To be reused within a single workspace
• C. To increase performance of data flow
• D. To store in an FMX local to the workspace

Answer: (A)

A linked custom transformer is used to standardize and reuse a transformer definition across multiple workspaces by linking to a single shared version stored in a central location. This lets you define an organization-wide process that should be performed the same way in all workspaces, ensuring consistency and easier maintenance. When the shared transformer is updated in its central repository, every workspace that links to it automatically adopts the change, keeping behavior uniform across the organization.

In contrast, reuse limited to a single workspace doesn’t leverage the cross-workspace sharing, and a linked transformer isn’t primarily a means to boost performance. Storing the transformer locally to an FMX inside a single workspace would prevent the intended central sharing and cross-workspace consistency.
