Inject data into file variable

In Workflow Cloud I'm able to get some JSON content from a web service call.  This allows me to iterate over the JSON and pull out data.  I can actually get the data into a text variable formatted as CSV.  Next, I'd like to save this CSV data to OneDrive, Box, etc... but first I need to get the data into a file variable.

 

Is there a way to save the contents of a text variable into a file variable? 

 

Thanks for your help.

@ShaunInIdaho currently NWC does not support converting a 'basic' variable (such as a string, int, boolean) into 'complex' variables (such as objects or files). The team is working on this as part of the introduction of object support into NWC (which started with the launch of RPA gateway), however I do not have a hard date on when variable conversion will be available within the designer.
