I made additional investigations. For some files the file meta node is not obtaining the correct creation/modified dates, for reasons I do not understand. If I use the node locally, i.e. not via the folder share option, the correct date is given.
I tried to obtain the information via an alternative way, using a “get reqest node” as was described earlier here https://forum.knime.com/t/how-to-get-file-created-date-for-the-files-downloaded-onm-knime-server/30112, however I struggled with the syntax of the files on the shared network folder so that I can access it via get request. I tried the following syntax:
https://///share_name/share_folder_name/folder/3_experiment_02-03-2023/Sequence%20002/AF-BF%2003%2003_002/AF-BF%2003%2003_002–L01.tif
With an URL starting with file:///// I could access the file using a browser, but “file:///” does not seem to be allowed for get request nodes.
Thanks in advance.
