Hello, does anyone know the path to stored files? I assumed it was/tmp/file name but doesnt seem to be the case
/tmp can be finicky, since workflows are automatically spun up and down to meet demand, and their filesystems wiped.
The File Store is a better option so you can have your files hosted outside of your workflow, but still accessible by code in your workflows
Thank you. I did upgrade to be able to use file store, how can we access it in a workflow?
I don’t believe you need to upgrade in order to use File Stores but I could be wrong
But you can use them in Node.js and Python
/tmp seems to work a lot better in production/deployed workflows (we use it without any problem).
In the builder, the files get erased half the time before we can even use them (workaround: just try again…).
Got it, thanks. My workflow is in python, so I think I need to create a JS step, store in tmp and then call from tmp
