Create action

The Create action in the File package enables you to create a new file.

Note: You can use the Create action to create only human readable files that contains raw data or text that is not formatted, and needs no specific software to read or open. For example, files with extensions such as .txt, .log, .csv, .json, .xml, .html and so on.

However, files that are system generated and require specific software for opening or reading the contents are not supported by Create action. For example, files with extensions such as .png, .jpeg, .excel, ..exe, .dll, .jar and so on.

Settings

  • In the File field, enter filepath where you to store the file or click Browse to select it.
  • In the Overwrite an existing file option, select an existing file with the same name to overwrite it. If existing files are not overwritten, the Control Room appends the name of the new file with a numeric value.
