To reflect a newer author version in your workspace, which action is required?

• A. Automatic upgrade on open
• B. Use the Upgrade Transformer option manually
• C. It cannot be upgraded
• D. It depends on FME version

Answer: (B)

Upgrading the transformer manually is the way to reflect a newer author version in your workspace. In FME, transformers have authoring versions tied to the release you installed. To adopt the improvements or new parameters from a newer author version, you explicitly upgrade the transformer within the workspace. In Workbench, you select the transformer and use the Upgrade Transformer command to replace it with the newer author version available in your FME installation. This keeps you in control of when changes happen and ensures compatibility, since upgrades aren’t performed automatically just by opening a workspace. If your installation doesn’t include the newer author version, upgrading won’t reflect those changes.
