check for new file in directory

[mlauber71]

Maybe other ideas in the thread can help. Like this component:

Start a Workflow, e. g. a database query, after a certain time

You could absolutely combine the approaches, I would think. Thank you @kienerj for pointing to this feature. Another interesting function could be this component by @gab1one that would wait for a file to change. In order to bring this into a ‘looping system’ - some changes might be necessary. In my example I tried to do a small such system with generic KNIME nodes.

In the end such a thing could be a task for the KNIME server.
