Is there any node or method inside KNIME to automatically retrieve the current workflow (.knwf) n...

Hi everyone,

I’m working with KNIME (version 5.4.x) and I have a question regarding workflow metadata access.

Inside a KNIME workflow, I want to automatically obtain the name of the current workflow file.

For example:

• Workflow file name: `Child01`

• I want to automatically get `"Child01"` inside the workflow

Use cases include:

• Automatically naming log files

• Adding workflow name into run history

• Auto-naming output files

• Let each sub-workflow identify itself dynamically

*

What I have already tried

1. Java Snippet / Java Edit Variable (failed)

I attempted to access workflow manager APIs, e.g.:

getWorkflowManager().getProject().getName();

However, in KNIME 5.x these methods do not seem to be exposed to Java Snippet anymore, resulting in:

The method getWorkflowManager() is undefined for the type JSnippet

So reading the workflow name directly from Java Snippet is not possible.

2. Flow Variables (manual setup, not suitable)

I can manually define a variable like

workflow_name

,

but what I need is:

Automatically retrieving the workflow name, without manually typing it.

My Question

👉 Is there any built-in node or official method in KNIME that allows retrieving the current workflow name automatically?

Thanks.
