RETRIEVES AN ATTACHMENT BY NAME FROM A SIMULATION¶
Looks up a named file attachment that belongs to a given simulation record and returns its identifier and resolved file-system path. Use this worker whenever a downstream step needs to locate a specific simulation artifact by filename without knowing its attachment ID in advance.
When to use¶

Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Simulation | simulation_id | remote_lookup | — | ✓ | The simulation record to search; resolved via the remote simulation lookup — select the target simulation from the dropdown. |
| File name | file_name | text | — | ✓ | Exact filename (including extension) of the attachment to retrieve, e.g. ‘result.binout’ or ‘model.k’; must match the stored attachment name exactly. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Simulation Id | simulation_id | integer | Integer primary key of the simulation record that owns the attachment; passed through from the input for use by downstream workers. |
| Att Id | att_id | integer | Integer primary key of the matched attachment record; use this ID when referencing the attachment in subsequent platform API calls. |
| Attachment Path | att_path | textarea | Absolute or relative file-system path to the attachment file on the server, e.g. ‘/data/simulations/42/result.binout’; pass this to file-read or solver workers that require a path. |
