Set File Variable

Set an identifier for a file on the file system so it can be used as input in subsequent Steps.
The Working Directory created in step 1 needs to be entered into the input fields for both the ‘Run Bash’ action in step 2 and the ‘Set File Variable’ action in step 3. This ensures that both actions operate within the same directory, maintaining consistency across the workflow.
Step 1: Create Working Directory
  1. Add a “Create Working Directory” action to the workflow.
  2. Set the Name parameter to "WorkingDirectory".
Step 2: Run Bash Script
  1. Add a “Run Bash Script” action.
  2. Create a bash script For example: echo $(getent passwd) > users
    • This command retrieves a list of system users and writes it to a file named users.
  3. Under the Advanced section, set Working Directory to {{ WorkingDirectory.Identifier }} using the variable picker to ensure the script executes within the created directory.
Step 3: Set File Variable
  1. Add a “Set File Variable” action.
  2. Configure the following parameters:
    • File Identifier: "MyFile"
    • Path: "users"
  3. Under the Advanced section, set Working Directory to {{ WorkingDirectory.Identifier }} using the variable picker .
  4. Execute the step. The output confirms the file’s location and size:
{
  "path": "/home/blink_15699/MyFile",
  "size": 1703
}
