Which option can you not choose for 'Download as' when using the FMEServerResourceConnector?

• A. Folder
• B. Compressed folder
• C. File
• D. Attribute

Answer: (B)

The option you can’t choose reflects how the FMEServerResourceConnector retrieves resources from FME Server. The download formats exposed by the connector are designed around directly delivering the resource as a single file, as a whole folder, or as a specific attribute value. A compressed folder would require the server to package multiple items into a ZIP archive before sending it, which isn’t supported by this download workflow. So, you can download as a single file, download the containing folder, or download an attribute, but you cannot download a pre-packaged compressed (ZIP) folder. If you need a ZIP, you’d have to create it outside the connector after download.
