Hi there, I have a use-case that I would like some guidance and assistance on. Consider that we have a workflow that: * takes a CSV as an input from a user, service, or API (note that the user here is external to the organization and interacts with us through a web front-end or an API) * runs a workflow using standardized data in the input CSV and other internal databases * outputs data in any format that allows the overall functionality to work * the output data is then passed on to another API or service to return it to the calling user Looking for some guidance, best-practices, and demos as to how to make the above requirement a possibility. Note that we have both the Designer and Server licenses. Thanks

@asadmasad1 - It sounds like you could leverage Alteryx Gallery API for pieces of your use-case. Here are some links that can be helpful: * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCCy6a_dbXc * https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Engine-Works/Using-the-Alteryx-Gallery-API/ba-p/449007

Hi there,

I have a use-case that I would like some guidance and assistance on. Consider that we have a workflow that:

takes a CSV as an input from a user, service, or API (note that the user here is external to the organization and interacts with us through a web front-end or an API)
runs a workflow using standardized data in the input CSV and other internal databases
outputs data in any format that allows the overall functionality to work
the output data is then passed on to another API or service to return it to the calling user

Looking for some guidance, best-practices, and demos as to how to make the above requirement a possibility.

Note that we have both the Designer and Server licenses.

Thanks

If you are looking to trigger a worfklow via api you wlil need the server product. Not saying that you 100% can't do this via some wizardry. But you can't LEGALLY do it under the terms of your license agreement without Server.

Yeah, as I mentioned we have the Server license as well.
