Can I download one file?

Yes. Use --nodes to pick the node and --files to name the specific files, so you fetch only the data you need instead of the whole run.

Which runs can it pull?

A specific run with --run, the latest N with --runs, or every run with --all, so you can grab one result or assemble a history.

How do I authenticate the download?

Pass --token or --token-file with a Trickest authentication token, the same credentials you use for other CLI platform commands.

Can a config file drive what gets downloaded?

Yes. Point --config at a YAML file that lists which node outputs to fetch, so repeatable pulls stay consistent across automation.

How is this different from trickest-execute --output?

Execute starts a new run and can download when that run finishes. trickest-output reaches into existing runs, including older ones, without launching anything new.

overview

What trickest-output does

trickest-output is the Trickest CLI's download command, packaged as a node. It pulls the results of a workflow run from the platform onto disk, scoped exactly the way you want. Reference a workflow by URL or by space, project, and name, then narrow to a single run, a set of recent runs, specific nodes, or named files. This is how you get a finished run's data into a downstream system without re-executing anything.

It is built for retrieving results, not launching jobs. Where the execute command starts a run, this one reaches into runs that already happened: grab the latest output, the last few runs, or every run, and filter to the nodes and filenames that matter so you do not download a whole workflow's worth of data to read one file. A config file can encode which nodes to fetch for repeatable pulls.

Use it to feed a completed run's findings into reporting, alerting, or another pipeline. Scope with --nodes and --files to keep the download small, and pair it with trickest-execute when you need a fresh run first.

use cases

Where trickest-output fits

Pull results from a finished run

Reference a workflow and download the output of its latest run, so a completed execution's findings reach disk without launching a new one.

Scope the download to specific nodes

Name the nodes and files you care about so a large workflow's output collapses to the data the next system consumes.

Fetch a batch of recent runs

Set the number of recent runs, or download all of them, to assemble a history of outputs for trend reporting or diffing.

Feed results into reporting

Download named files from a scanning node and hand them to a reporting or alerting stage downstream, all inside one pipeline.

guidance

Choosing trickest-output

Use trickest-output when a workflow has already run and you only need its results, not a fresh execution. Pair it with trickest-execute, which starts the run; this node fetches what that run produced. Scope to nodes and files to keep the download small.

trickest-execute

Starts a new run. Use it when you need to execute, then trickest-output to fetch results from runs that already finished.

trickest-cli

The full CLI this node wraps. Use it directly for managing workflows and runs beyond downloading output.

faq

trickest-output questions

No. It downloads output from runs that already happened. To launch a run, use trickest-execute; this node retrieves the results afterward.

Run trickest-output yourself

A workflow reference feeds trickest-output, which downloads the selected run's data and writes it as a folder for downstream use.
