Zip to payload

Zip to payload

This workflow component will close a zip archive and move it to the payload. You can then do further processing on it, such as saving it to a file.

Note that if you use the "append to zip archive" component after the "zip to payload" component, with the same zip id, then it will initialize a new zip file. 

The component looks like this:

  1. Zip ID
    Specify the id of the previously initialized zip archive.
