Describe the problem/error/question
I have a workflow that goes like this: fetch text from website, process text and extract title, text and the url to the next page. Then I try to convert this data to a text file and save it to my local disk. I’m running n8n in docker on a local machine. The problem I have is that when I try to write the file to disk I get an error that the binary data isn’t there. When I inspect the data coming from the previous node, everything appears to be there except the field that’s supposed to be labeled “binary” is called “data”.
What is the error message (if any)?
If I check the input expression/data there’s a binary parent field but where the actual data is stored, is in the ‘data’ field.
Please share your workflow
Share the output returned by the last node
It looks to be the correct binary data. If I open the file from the GUI it all looks correct.
