Creates a temporary folder upon execute and exposes its path
as flow variable. This can be useful in (a) demo applications where
the actual path of the output is not all that relevant, e.g. the
KNIME public workflow server and (b) KNIME WebPortal and quickform
flows, where some data is written, which is later downloaded by means
of, e.g. a web link. The folder is deleted upon closing the
workflow. The node can be also configured in a way that the created
temporary folder is deleted upon reset.
Note: By default the temporary folder is created directly in the workflow data area,
as defined by “.“ in the Folder field
This node can access a variety of different file systems. More information about file handling in KNIME can be found in the official File Handling Guide.
