Alerting

Where can I store alert action temp files within the app structure?

I am writing a custom webhook alert action and want to include a retry function which will last more than a few retrys.

To do this, I want to store the file that I am sending within the alert action app structure, however after reviewing the Splunk App Structure website, I am none the wiser.

Should it go here:

myApp
    appserver
        static
            file.csv

Or should I create my own directory for temp files under the bin directory:

myApp
    bin
        temp
            file.csv
