Output

The Output node delivers whatever reaches it to a destination you choose: your device, your Media Library, a connected Google Drive or Dropbox account, or the Video Editor as an editable project.

Inputs and outputs

  • Input: a single, unnamed input. Connect one node into it.
  • No output, Output is the last stop in a workflow branch.

If nothing is connected, Output finishes with a warning asking you to wire a node into it, or turn on Collect Upstream Flow, no file is exported, but the rest of the workflow still completes. If something is connected but produced nothing to export, you get a warning explaining that no downloadable image, video, or audio was found.

Settings

Open the "Settings" button on the card for the full panel.

Destination, pick one:

  • Download: downloads to your device when the run finishes.
  • Media Library: stores the result in your project library. This is the default.
  • Google Drive: uploads to your connected Drive.
  • Dropbox: uploads to your connected Dropbox.
  • Video Editor: opens the result as an editable project in the Editor tab. After a Compose node, the project has the stitched clips in order, B-roll cutaways where the render placed them, and the voiceover and music on their own tracks, so you can keep editing. A voiceover or music made of several audio files sits on its track one file after another, the way you hear it in the video. Anything else is laid end to end. Your clips are also saved to your Media Library so the editor can open them, and the rendered video is saved next to them. When the run finishes, the Output card shows an "Open in editor" link. If a clip's length could not be read, it is still saved to your library but left off the timeline, and the run tells you so. If the length of the voiceover or music could not be read, that track is left out of the project, and the run tells you so. If a clip could not be saved at all, the run tells you it was left off.

Collect Upstream Flow: off by default. When off, Output exports only the final, directly-wired result. When on, it exports every asset generated anywhere upstream in the workflow, not just the final one.

Folder Organization (when Media Library or Video Editor is the destination):

  • "Save to Workflow Folder": on by default. Turning it off leaves exported files in your library's "All" view instead of a folder for this workflow.
  • "Custom Folder": an optional folder name (letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, and periods only).
  • "Per-Execution Folders": on by default. Each run's outputs land in their own sub-folder.
  • "Include Timestamps": on by default, adds a timestamp to the folder path.
  • A live preview at the bottom of this section shows exactly how your files and folders will be named.

File Naming:

  • "Custom Name": an optional name. If left blank, it falls back to "{workflow name}_result".
  • "Include Execution ID": on by default, adds a short version of the run's ID to the file name.
  • "Include Timestamp": on by default, adds a timestamp to the file name.
  • Every exported file also gets a number and its real file extension added at the end.

Platform Optimization, off by default:

  • "Strip AI Metadata": removes source metadata tags from your files before export. If the cleanup step is temporarily unavailable, the export still completes and the affected file is delivered unchanged.

Keep in mind that if you publish realistic AI-generated content, you are responsible for disclosing that it is AI-generated, as described in our Terms of Service.

Tips

  • Cloud destinations need that provider actually connected in your account. If it isn't, the run will fail and tell you which one to connect.
  • The Download destination only works for files 60 Minute Creator generated or stored itself.
  • To keep cutting after the run, see The Editor.
