In the file name input of the Create Text File step include the file path with the actual file name at the end. For example, inputting "C:/newfile.txt" as the file name will save the text file directly on the C: Drive.[b]Globally change the file storage location:[/b]
File Storage is defined in Settings.xml. To find Settings.xml, in File Explorer navigate to the Decisions directory > Decisions Services Manager > Settings. Open Settings.xml in a Notepad Editor as admin and make changes to the file path on the following XML tag:
