No fields selected Error

Hi Folks

I encountered an error "no fields selected in a select tool error", while debugging we could see the file has data and select tool also marked for necessary columns but it still throwing error in gallery. While running the same in our local machine no issues.At last identified the issue because of header fond of the excel once we change that it ran successfully. Any one has any idea why this cause error in gallery .

Hi @sreejithmp ,

Interesting! Seems to me it's a bug in metadata (Alteryx is kind of known for these kind of weird errors haha ;-)).

Is it possible for you to share the workflow or a dummy? 

If you have notepad++ (or a different tool), try opening the workflow in it and search for the select tool in the .xml code, like:

I wonder if it helps to explicitly state the fields within the code (it should automatically do that but sometimes it will forget). After you put them explicitly in the code, save the workflow to the gallery and try it again, this is my best bet. 

Good luck!
