Allowing user to provide input and the output filters data accodingly

Question

Hello All,

I want to create such a workflow that will allow the user to provide an input, and after running the workflow the output should filter data as per the user input. In short, is dynamic user input possible in Alteryx?

I will be sharing this workflow with my team members and they should be able to filter the data as per their requirement instead of extracting the entire data and then filtering.

Thanks,

Madhura

Hi @MadhuraBuchake - You configured the action tool to replace a specific string: "2000-01-01". However, there is no such string in the tool. I believe that one action tool needs to replace "2022-06-01" and the other one needs to replace "2022-07-08". Therefore, you need to do just that.

Thank you all @Kurohits @ArtApa @DataNath for replying to my question.

I created below workflow to allow the user to set start and end date using Action tools. However the logic didnt work. Can anyone help me figure out what could be wrong in this workflow?

Hi @MadhuraBuchake

Yes it is possible in alteryx. Basically you have to create Alteryx Analytics App. There are several interface tools available in alteryx like "Text Box", "Drop Down", "Check Box" "Action" which can be used to make workflow dynamic. It would be better if you can share any sample data so that I can provide you the workflow.

Moreover you can also go through links shared by @DataNath and @ArtApa .
