Which statement about versioning availability for embedded versus linked transformers is correct?

• A. Embedded supports versions; Linked does not
• B. Linked supports versions; Embedded does not
• C. Both support versions
• D. Neither supports versions

Answer: (B)

Versioning in FME means keeping a history of changes to a transformer so you can track, revert, or swap different iterations. Linked transformers are external, reusable components saved outside a single workspace. Because they’re separate artifacts, they can be versioned in a library or repository, giving you independent version history and easy updates across workspaces. Embedded transformers live inside one workspace, so their history is tied to that workspace and they don’t have their own independent versioning. That’s why linked transformers support versions while embedded ones do not.
