Access binary data from a node not directly preceding the current node

[Gregor_Amon]

I try to access binary data of a node that is not direclty preceding my current node. However no tutorial or documentation is showing how. Is it even possible? Or do i need to store the data as file either locally or on a temporary server if I need it down the workflow?

In the node right after i fetch the binary data, I can access it simply with “data”. But what if I want to access it in the node after next? Is is gone from memory?

For what I know binary data is only available on the immediate previous node but have you tried to run both nodes [Send to Transcribe] and [Google Drive] after [Download Audio] by draging another arrow from the [Download Audio] ?
