Hi, I am new to n8n and I can’t figure out how to save data to files. What specifically am I missing? Running via Docker.

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

@slyfoxgh , am I reading it right that you use semi-column in the name of the file, /data/test;txt?

Apart from that (it should be data/test.txt instead), the missing node is the one that converts your string to binary. Once you have created a binary file you can write it to the container.
