This command creates a file, (CSV, TSV, or SSV), of the data that is stored in the Workflow Table. This file contains a header row that lists the names of the Workflow Table columns.
Note |
---|
|
wfexport and the right-click command Export Table are different. If the workflow configuration consists of several workflows, and wf_disk_collection.csv contains a single workflow configuration data, only one workflow is included in the Workflow Table after wfexport . To avoid losing your configurations when importing, use the right-click command Export Table in the Workflow Table.
For further information see Export Table in the Desktop User's Guide. |
<workflow configuration>
| Specify the workflow configuration that you want to export. |
<export file>
| Specify the name of the export file |
[-csv|-tsv|-ssv] | Specify one of the wfexport supported formats according to which the export file should be created: CSV (Comma Separated Value) - Default format SSV (Semicolon Separated Value) TSV (Tab Separated Value)
|
title | Note!Text strings within each value are delimited by a quotation mark ("). In the export file, External References are enclosed in braces ({}) preceded by a dollar symbol ($). For example: ${mywf_abcd} . For further information see External References in the Desktop User's Guide. Similarly, Execution Settings in the export file, are enclosed in braces ({}), but are preceded by a pound symbol (#). For example: #{mywf_exsettings} . For further information see Execution Settings below. To prevent a workflow table column from being updated by the export file data when importing, delete that same column from the export file.
