Write Text File Node

The Write Text File Node is responsible for writing the contents of a Variable to a text file. Write File Nodes always write to a local or network file location. If you want to then transfer the file to a remote location this must be performed as a separate action.

To create a Write Text File Node, drag the "Write Text File" item from the Actions Task Elements List into your Task. You will then be presented with the Write Text File options dialog:

Variable To Write

This is the Variable that contains the information you want to write.

Enter File Location

This is the location of the file that should be created. It can be dynamic, meaning it can contain other Variables or column references.

Append existing File

If the filename already exists, the contents of the Variable will be appended to the end.

File is temporary

When the Task completes the file will be deleted.
