Listers,

I would like to create a simple text file from workflow - use the contents of a field and save it to a .txt. I thought this would be simple, but I must be missing something.
Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
John.

Hi,

In order to create a file from the workflow, you can make use of the action called "log to file", so this will track all the update.

Regards,
Jimmy

Hi,

You can use the Run Process action with the OS command to create text files.

Hi,

yes, Vincent you are right. In our project we have solaris and we use run process action with the below values

echo "Values in the text file" >> /home/arsystem/ars/Sample.txt

Cheers,
Mazhar
