Utilities
A deprecated utility that downloaded Trickest workflow outputs by node id.
overview
get-trickest-output is a deprecated command-line tool that downloaded the results of a Trickest workflow node to local disk. You pointed it at a workflow and a node id, gave it an API token, and it pulled that node's most recent output into a folder you could grep, diff, or feed into another script.
Because it predates the current Trickest CLI, it does not track newer export paths, and new workflows should not wire it in. Reach for it only when you are reading or maintaining an older workflow that still calls it.
Its inputs map a download back to a specific place: -wf and -wf_version pick the workflow and version, -node selects the producing node, and -all widens the pull from the latest run to every matching one.
use cases
Download the output files a specific node produced so you can grep, diff, or hand them to a local script. This is the core job the node did before the maintained CLI took it over.
With -all, download the output of every matching run of a node rather than the single most recent one, which helps when comparing results across executions or auditing a pipeline's history.
If an older workflow still wires in get-trickest-output, this page explains what the node did and what each input meant so you can follow the graph.
Find where a workflow fetched outputs by node id, then swap that step for the maintained Trickest CLI or an export node before you re-run.

| node_id | STRING | -node | Id of the workflow node whose output you want to download. |
| token | STRING | -token | Trickest API token, taken from your dashboard account settings. |
| config-file | FILE | -config | YAML config file that holds the API token, so you do not pass it on the command line. |
| workflow_id | STRING | -wf | Id of the workflow the target node belongs to. |
| workflow_version | STRING | -wf_version | Name of the workflow version to read the node from. |
| all-outputs | BOOLEAN | -all | Download the output of every matching run, not only the most recent. |

Do not reach for get-trickest-output in new work. It is deprecated, and downloading workflow outputs is handled by the maintained Trickest CLI and platform export paths. Use this page only to understand legacy workflows that still call it.
The maintained command-line interface. Use it to run workflows and pull outputs instead of this deprecated node.
Fetches stored data from a bucket. A current option when you need results out of the platform.
