• Alteryx Server
  • Version 2022.3.1.486 (Patch 3)
• Server Curator role
• Server API Access Key and Secret
• The same error can be observed with the following Server API endpoints that target specific workflows or Analytic Apps:
  • GET /v3/workflows/{workflowId}/questions
  • POST /user/v2/workflows/{appId}/jobs
  • GET /v1/workflows/{appId}/questions
  • POST /v1/workflows/{appId}/jobs

Cause

 

Certain Server workflow API endpoints require that the user making the API call be in the same Studio/Subscription as the target workflow.

Resolution

 

Solution A - Move the Curator into the same Subscription as the target workflow

 

1. Go to the Server Admin web page > Subscriptions
2. Click on the target workflow's Subscription
3. Click on the Users tab and add the Curator to the Subscription

Solution B - Use the API Access Key and Secret of a user that is already in the target workflow's Subscription
