Read Files and append columns

There has been no title set for this workflow's metadata.

This is a KNIME Workflow example for a user's question based on a YouTube video. You can find the video (and the users comment / question) in the links below.

This workflow basically loops through a list of files, reads them and appends the new columns to the right by using the Loop End (Column Append) node.

The Table Row to Variable node is used to turn the file location into a dynamic Flow Variable so the workflow would also work, no matter if it is 1, 10 or 100 files to be read.
