New to Alteryx, and not exactly sure where to post this. I have a workflow that gives me a report in Excel, as well as a Powerpoint file. I was wondering if there was a way to rename the files as they are output.
Thanks,
Aaron
Yes indeed. In the Config Panel for the output tool, towards the bottom, you will see options for supplying the name of your output using a column. Thus, just before the output tool, you could place a Formula tool where you create a new column called "OutputFileName" (or whatever you want to call it)... then supply whatever you want right there... (you could even base it off of the values of other variables in your data set, should you so desire).
That should work for powerpoint.
For Excel, won't that rename the "sheet" name, but not the actual file name?
