I really recommend using the Inspection point functionality in FME for this one. It will allow you to pause your workspace at a given point or feature to inspect the values present at run-time:

http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Workbench/Default.htm#about_feature_inspection.htm

Green arrows on the writer at design-time are unfortunately not always fool-proof, there a a few scenarious where the attribute might not be available at run-time even though it appears to be the case at design-time.

Comment by siggi https://knowledge.safe.com/comments/14826/view.html Hey there,

thanks for the response. I am still very new to FME. I actually read in a whole bunch of tables from PostGIS. Or should every table be in one seperate reader? I tried but it didn't change anything.

@David R.: I chose the text-attribute and set up an test clause with a string that appears in the table. Didn't give any results back.

@Itay: Yes, I see the attributes, right below the writer as well as the reader. Every attribute has also a green arrow. That means each writer or reader attribute has a matching attribute on the "opposite" site, right? I also find all attributes in the properties in the writer respectively the reader (user and format attributes).

Cheers,
Siggi

if the igds attributes are set when the features enter the writer, they should be written regardless of whether they are exposed or not.

Try to set an inspection point (or insert an Inspector) just before the writer to see if the features have the igds_text_string etc. applied to them.

Are those igds attributes exposed/available in the writer?
