Using Configuration as a label in reports

Hi,
I wonder if I can use a string configuration as a text label in a report. In my example, I’m setting the country code for the workflow in a String Configuration node and I want to use the value as a text in the report later. Is this possible? Or is there a smarter way to handle country codes (drop down in the report?)

Hi @pfmd86 and welcome to the KNIME community forum,

May I ask for further explanation? What report are you working on? Is it a BIRT report? Where and how exactly are you going to use the country codes? How are you catching these codes?

Please describe your case a bit more. Thanks.

Hi armingrudd,

right now, I am uising a String Configuration Node where I put the string in (1).
Another thing I think about is pulling the values from the table and group them (2) to feed the Value Selection Configuration Node (3).

And yes, it’s a BIRT. I’m very new to Knime, so thank you for the patience.

If I’m getting you right, you could convert the variable to a data table row and pass it to the Data to Report node and use it in BIRT. To do that you can use the Variable to Table Row node.

That works! Perfect, thank you! I didn’t know this node!
