Description

The Export Image to File node allows you to save images from a data flow to a file system location.

Images are retrieved from a column in the input data and written to the selected destination folder. A file name can be provided directly or retrieved from a column in the input data.

The node processes each row individually and creates a separate file for each image.

The process works as follows:

1. Select a valid File Source connection.

2. Select the destination Folder.

3. Select the Image Column that contains the image data.

4. Specify the File Name or select a column containing the file name.

5. Select the output format.

6. Execute the node.

7. The images are saved to the selected destination.

Tips & Best Practices

• Ensure that the Image Column contains valid image data.

• Use dynamic file names to prevent files from overwriting each other.

• Use PNG when image quality should be preserved.

• Use JPG when smaller file sizes are preferred.

• Verify that the selected destination folder is writable by the configured connection.
