Can I use the comp name as a parameter in the json job? #1028

Hi,

is it possible to use the comp name in the postrender modules? I would like to automatically name the encode output and copy output with the comp name.

Also side question regarding the comp name, what happens if I have 2 comps in the project with the same name but in different folder?

thanks Andrea

Since you are generating the json on your side, you could also pre-generate the output name in-beforehand as well. That way all the values would be already defined when you output your json for the job from whatever method of generation you've created.

I'm creating the json manually in the editor, is there a way to ise the "composition" value in the actions as a parsmeter or is there another way to just pass a parameter to the cli to be used in the composition and actions?
