Can you use relative file paths in the Output tool? For example, I usually have a workflow folder and an outputs folder in my projects; could I use "../Outputs/output.file" instead of "FullPathToProject/Outputs/output.file?"
Thanks in advance!
@wdula - the relative path you used in you example would work. This Knowledge Base article discusses Alteryx file paths in depth and is a great resource to refer to.
File Paths and Alteryx
Yes you can use relative paths on outputs. It will output to the location of the workflow as the basepath or to a temporary folder if you are on the server.
@wdula
I also use the constant "Engine.WorkflowDirectory".
@wdula ,
You can also manage the file paths between Absolute and Relative by Options > Advanced Options > Workflow Dependencies menu.
Please check the manual;

I hope this helps.
This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!
