# Create File

## Overview

![The Create File Node.](https://2561100106-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Ff6JZovzOqBctA4C1o76u%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6600cc43c5f09912a3ecfe3f73aa6f84d2bda8ad%2Fcreatefile_2.png?alt=media)

The **Create File Node** creates a file in a location given by the user.

The file *path*, including the name of the file to be created and its extension, has to be given as **Input** and the **Output** is a **Boolean** indicating whether the operation was successful. Thus, a valid *path* to be given as **Input** is of the form:

`C:\Users\User\MyIncariProjects\MyProject\Assets\MyFiles\file.txt`.

Note that files can only be created within the **Project Asset** folder.

[**Scope**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.2/overview#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**, **Function**, **Prefab**.
