Known Issue: Unable to download transformers and web services from FME Hub in FME Desktop

Symptom 

In FME Desktop 2019.x - FME Desktop 2021.0, you will be unable to download Hub Transformers after they have been deprecated or have been updated to use a new version.

Since web services do not have versions, if they have been removed from FME Hub, you will not see them in any version of FME. 
 

Resolution/Workaround 

This has been fixed for Transformers in FME Desktop 2021.1. Users using older versions can manually download the transformer needed from FME Hub and then install the transformer by double-clicking it or copying it to one of the standard locations for the transformer.
