it seems that the result.json is not read as result of the step. is there a working sample?

Did you write it at ./result.json ? Or maybe somewhere else Could you print the full path where you wrote

here a code snippet: $jsonData = @{ "name" = "John Doe" "age" = 30 "city" = "New York" } | ConvertTo-Json '# the last line of the stdout is the return value $jsonData | Out-File -FilePath "./Result.json" lowercase is not running also: $jsonData | Out-File -FilePath "./result.json" any news here? I have no idea what i can test here.

yeah, it run's 🙂 can you gibe me a hint, how should the follow task? i have multiple powershell scripts that getting information from different api's, each script returns a json. should i create one workflow and put each of the script there or is it better to use multiple schedules with multiple workflows? oh each workflow is only a powershell scipt and an "store to elasticsearch" python-script.
