On first execution this stores the current workflow's name into a file inside the workflow's folder: workflow-internal-id.csv

On subsequent executions it collects the name stored in this folder and returns it.

This means that even if the workflow is subsequently renamed, it still collects the original id.

To reset the id for the workflow you must manually delete/edit the .\workflow-internal-id.csv file in the workflow folder.
