Saving or Exporting workflow and related data/files

A need a clarification about saving/exporting a workflow e related file/data. I wold like to move in a different partition\folder the whole workflow including the file with data that I developd in my “Local space”, in order to re-elaborate and continuously updating the original data-file (I’m speaking of excel files) in a different folder. Which is the right procedure?

To be extremely clear, i would like move a folder like those in the picture “***Claim”, which contain several workflow and all related excel files in a different partition\folder mantaining the structure of the folder in orde to make able a colleagues to operate, when and if necessary, directly on the excel file to update them.
Thanks for suggestions.

@Guglielmo you might want to take a look at the (lengthy but very useful) “KNIME File Handling Guide”

https://docs.knime.com/latest/analytics_platform_file_handling_guide/index.html

You can move and zip every structure of knime workflows and data. Question will be how to handle the paths you have provided in the workflows.

If you move to a OneDrive or cloud system be sure to be aware of their limitations.

Many thanks for linked documentation: it is not esasy for me … by the way I’ll try to study it! :slight_smile:
I make a test moving a whole folder with the workflow and the related excel file in onther directory and after I swhitched the Local space to the new directory, KNIME see the workflow in the new Local Space (obviously with the old path but it is a minor issue, I just changed the Input Location in the excel reades and the workflow still works) the only difference is that KNIME doesn’t see the whole folder. On the contrary on the original Local Space KNIME see a folder with inside the excel file and the workflow.
I’ll try to make some further test.
