Error in output to a TDE file

Hi all

I am quite new to Alteryx.

I want to output data to a tde file. To test it, I have created a simple text input and output directly to a tde on my local machine. But I encounter a "network error". I have Tableau 2018.1 installed on my machine but is there is any prerequisite before I can output a tde file. I also create output to .hyper and no error is reported.

I have searched the forum for an answer but I can't find one. So hope the experts here can shed some lights.

Thanks Thabeaus

I figure the reason. It's a permission settings.. I need to run the program as administrator in order to generate the tde file.

Hi @yikl

Having Tableau installed or not is kinda irrelevant in this situation, because the .TDE is just a data file as any other.

I ran the workflow in my machine with the relative paths applied and it worked fine.

One question: where are you actually outputting this .TDE file? Is it a network path? Or is it local?

Cheers,

Hi Thableaus

I run the flow locally
