We recently updated Alteryx to v2019.2.5.62427 and have had a lot of problems since.
The most recent issue is a predictable crashing of Alteryx altogether after running a workflow that contains an embedded macro. Neither the workflow nor the macro are at all complex as they only deal with formatting the input dataset (no analytics or even output yet).
Even a super basic workflow like this is problematic:
Here is the embedded macro (which is just meant to parse a name field into first/last name fields and return the results):
I have attached the embedded macro and sample workflow here.
When the macro is included, the workflow completes successfully and I can browse the datastream until I click on the macro (so as to check its output). At that point, Alteryx freezes and crashes:
This is a consistent crash whenever this macro is included in any workflow. Running the macro itself with a text input for the Macro Input works just fine as well.
I was not able to find any logs regarding the errors in the C:\ProgramData\Alteryx folder.
