Download files on server

Hi,

I setup a workflow which is shared via KNIME server. In this workflow I setup a comment function. The users can enter name and a text and these comments will be saved into an Excel file on the server.

I uploaded the Excel via drag&drop to the server. However, I cannot download the file via the KNIME software. Is there any possibility to download the file from the server? I want to be able to download the file, as it´s regularly updated by the users

Hello @Alkaline,
you can download a file via Server/Webportal.

There are some example workflows on the KNIME Hub. Link to the Download Widget

Hi @Alkaline

what you can do as well, in case you just need the xlsx is that you drag and drop it back on the your KNIME AP and than open it by right-clicking → Copy Location → Local Path and paste this into a Windows Explorer.

Or you just take the file and drag and drop it in any KNIME Workflow and it will be read.

Hi,

thanks for the help. Drag&drop of the file to a work-space is the easiest solution for me, so I will use this option :).
