Chained App in alteryx gallery

kimia

Hello everyone,

Recently, I’ve been struggling with a chained Alteryx app that consists of two apps. Each app contains 11 tests where users enter inputs to perform specific checks.

For 2 out of the 11 tests, users need to provide more than one input. Due to an Alteryx limitation, I used a Python tool to read a ZIP file in TXT format.

Everything works correctly when running locally, and both apps also work fine individually in the Gallery. However, the problem occurs when I chain the two apps together.

In the chained setup, the second workflow cannot read the input I provided, even though I inserted the inputs in both steps as required. This is the error I receive:

• Can't find the file: "F:\GlobalWorkspace\Service\Staging\3252_d81a8444178940b3b848dff8e91f3bc9\_externals\In_69452babe80b0000250077dd\listautenti_scu3 (1).prova.txt". Make sure the file path is correct. (ToolId: 2815)

tool id: input tool
thanks for helping, i tried with controlling work dependencies - .... all i know but still this !

Hi @kimia ,

The error is saying it's looking for a defined file in a defined path, which you're probably going to have to change in the server version as that filepath doesn't exist. You've checked the dependencies you said, does this include any where that would define an output specifically, for example, to the F drive which does not exist on the server?

Can you show us the config of your dependencies in both apps?
