Macros Interactive Lessons Issue

Question

I was going through the interactive lessons for the Macros to prep for the advanced certification exam, and I noticed quite a few of the videos seemed to end abruptly, sometimes not continuing on to the next segment of the lesson. Is anyone else having this problem?

It’s a common glitch in the Alteryx interactive player where the video loses sync with the progress triggers, often solved by switching to an Incognito window or using Microsoft Edge. If it keeps happening, check if there's a tiny "pulsing" orange box on the screen, as the lesson might be waiting for you to click a tool before it proceeds.

I hit this lesson and thought I broke something at first. The macro itself runs fine, but the interactive steps feel out of sync with what the tutorial expects. I noticed it right after an update, so that might be part of it. Restarting helped once, but honestly it feels like the lesson is slightly outdated rather than user error.

Update: nevermind, I figured out that it requires me to click and drag on some of the lessons.
