Pop up messages after a wortkflow

Hi Community,

Crrently I am working in a Macro in Alteryx.

I wonder if there is a way to show some information once the worklow is done. For instance a pop up window to show number of records or amounts, etc.

I see there is an icon named "Message" under the "Developer" menu, but I have not figured out how to use it for this purpose.

Thank you.

Hi @JorgeVazquez

If I understand correctly when the workflow finishes you would like you would like to have a pop out window to the user, rather than seeing the data within the results. If so, you will have to use a run command tool to create this. I have attached a workflow which shows you how this could wok within an app.

All you will need is to attach the run command tool at the end of the workflow so it pops out when the workflow finishes.

***Disclaimer: This workflow does have a run command tool in it, so depending upon your Machine setup it may prevent this workflow from running.

Hi @JorgeVazquez

I would recommend ticking the 'show all macro messages' within the runtime window of the workflow properties window (click on the white canvas to see this).

This should show you more information from within the macro itself.

To insert dummy values into the macro you can also run it in 'debug' mode within the interface designer (View>>interface designer).

Hi @JordanB,

Thank you for your answer.

I am looking to show customized messages using the outcome of my workflow. Is that possible?

Thank you!
