elviscai Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I want to start a workflow with a hotkey, then check if the specified filename exists, and create the file if it doesn't exist, and append the content if it does. After reading the help, I feel the "File Utility" is what I want - but I don't know how to pass the filename to it? I hope I can get an example or an answer, thanks! Link to comment
vitor Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Welcome @elviscai, Seems like the Write File Output is what you want instead. Have you considered that one? Link to comment

Which you can accomplish with multiple Write File Output. It has a builtin conditional to Skip, Overwrite, or Append depending on if the file exists. What you’re trying to do is an extra step. Either way, for the File Utility you give it the file’s path from the preceding node. If you’re using a Hotkey, set Argument to Text and paste the full file path there. elviscai 1 Link to comment
