Cannot save image by running the saved API format workflow

[jiaxinchen666]

Your question

Images can be saved to the output directory by running the workflow on the ComfyUI frontend. When I click 'Save (API Format)' and execute the API format, only temporary images are saved; the generated images are not saved to the output directory.

Only tagger's output and the temp images in 'outputs'. No output images. And in output directory, there is also no images.

I took a quick look at your prompt, and the flow being passed to save image and preview image is completely different. Simplify it to use the flow that goes to save image, and test it again.

even with save images facing the same issue

what is your original workflow?

The workflow you initially posted and the JSON you attached are completely different workflows. It seems you are looking at a file in the wrong directory or wrong name.

I am not the one who posted this issue, but I had the same issue too

[hackkhai]

i had the issue with this specific workflow, but it works at times, and doesn't work at times, super weird
