Rename Workflow generated file

SDeora
7 - Meteor

Hello,

 

I generated an output file with multiple worksheets through a workflow. I now need to rename this file to include the timestamp.

 

Note:

I've used Render tool to add a timestamp to a file but unable to add worksheets to it through the workflow. Additionally if add the timestamp to it I would not be able to enter the file path to add worksheets to it through other processes - same with the output data tool

Hello @SDeora,

 

You could change the names and add the timestamps using an interface tool and the formulas to modify the sheetnames:

This is just an example but you get the idea about how to modify filenames and sheetnames at the same time. Is this what you were looking for?
