Get experimenter job name at end of scenario

When completing a scenario, I would like to export the run data for that scenario into a folder with the scenario title, which is then contained in a folder with the job title.

In "On End of Replication" from the Experimenter, the scenario index and replication number are directly provided, and I can retrieve the scenario title from the task Map. But I cannot figure out any way to get the job title.

I can access the jobs node within the experimenter, but I don't have any direct way to know which job corresponds to my current scenario.

Is there any way to retrieve the job title during "On End of Replication"?

I don't know of any way to directly access the experiment name.

My suggestion would be to add the experiment title to the scenario name and then split the string up in the trigger. Editing the scenario names can be done automatically with the following code.

// Add experiment name to the front of scenario, separated by "|".
treenode jobs = Model.find("Tools/Experimenter>variables/jobs");
for(int i = 1; i <= jobs.subnodes.length; i++)
{
    treenode experiment = jobs.subnodes[i];
    treenode scenarioTable = experiment.subnodes["scenarios"].subnodes["valueTable"];
    for(int sce = 1; sce <= scenarioTable.subnodes.length; sce++)
    {
        treenode scenario = scenarioTable.subnodes[sce];
        if(!(scenario.name.startsWith(experiment.name)))
        {
            scenario.name = experiment.name + "|" + scenario.name;
        }
    }
}

// Retrieve names in trigger
string scenarioName = task["scenarioName"];
Array splitString = scenarioName.split("|");
string experimentName = splitString[1];
scenarioName = splitString[2];
