The Append Line of Text to File and Append Text to File steps both append a line to a file, similar to the File Writer steps.

However, these steps are designed only to add a single string and create a new file if a matching file does not exist.

Append Line of Text to File

The Append Line of Text to File step adds a new line of text to a file. The full file path must be specified in the File Name input. If no matching file is found, or if only the file name is added, a new file will be created in the Decisions Server directory.

Inputs

Property	Description	Data Type
File Name	The name or full file path to the file. If only the name is specified, a new file will be created under C:\Program Files\Decisions Server directory for a standard install.	String
Text	The new line of text being appended to the file.	String

Outputs

Property	Description	Data Type
None	---	---

Append Text to File

The Append Text to File step functions similarly to the Append Line of Text to File step; however, the text will be added onto the last line of the file instead of creating a new line with the text.

Inputs

Property	Description	Data Type
File Name	The name or full file path to the file. If only the name is specified, a new file will be created under C:\Program Files\Decisions Server directory for a standard install.	String
Text	The new line of text being appended to the file.	String

Outputs
