Pick out input file name to rename the output file

Hi,

 

I'm trying to rename my output file automatically with the name of the input file. In my real case, the input file is dynamic.

Thanks for your help

In the input data tool, change option 4 Output filename as field to fullpath, then in the Output data tool on the bottom left, use the option to take file name from field, change entire path and pick the fullpath field, uncheck keep field in output.

 

If you need to change the filename in fullpath along the way, you can do so with a formula tool.
