I’m getting some permissions errors in my task pods when I try to create files in the working directory, e.g.

with open("local_file.txt", "w") as f…

, because the working directory is

root

it looks like. Its fixed if I run

os.chdir("/tmp")

for example. Is there a way to change the working directory to avoid this?

can you try appending

flytekit.current_context().working_dir

to the directory or file you want to create? this shouldn't result in permission issues.
