WRITE DATASET TO FILE¶
Serialises an in-memory dataset to a CSV file on disk. Writes the column headers followed by all rows in comma-separated format and returns the resulting file. Use this worker whenever a downstream step requires a dataset to be persisted as a flat file.
Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Response To Extract From | responsetoextractfrom | dataset | — | The dataset (tabular, in-memory) to be written to disk; each row becomes a CSV line with column headers derived from the dataset keys. | |
| File Name | file_name | scalar | Unknown | Desired output filename (including extension, e.g. ‘results.csv’); defaults to ‘Unknown’ if left blank — always provide a meaningful name so the file is identifiable downstream. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| dataset_write_to_file_output_1 | dataset_write_to_file_output_1 | file | The generated CSV file written to the platform’s temporary directory; contains a header row followed by all dataset rows in comma-separated format, ready for download or further processing. |
