Hi BK02,

I am trying to consume gallery/api/user/v2/inputfiles/ API endpoint using .Net C# to upload the csv file as input to analytic App.

Can you please give me more reference for how to achieve it.

Hi @BK02 the endpoint you are talking about uses a filebrowse Interface tool and a PDF file is not standed file it can accept. Alteryx is expecting data in a tabular format hence why the PDF is not accepted.
