Alteryx Designer Workflow Automation without Alteryx server

Question

Hi Everyone,

I'm currently using Alteryx designer workflow locally (don't have a server yet) - the workflow needs to be run monthly/quarterly, I was thinking if there's a way to automate the "Execution/Run" of the workflow by any python script/RSConnect?

What Exactly do I want to achieve? - Without clicking/opening the yxmd file, if by running a script, the workflow gets executed.

Any idea is appreciated! Thanks again.

Thanks much Christina for this workaround. Something that I would be implementing with nested workflows. Much appreciated :)

I have several Alteryx workflows that need to be run on a weekly basis.  As a workaround without a scheduler licence, I use the CReW ListRunner macro.  I still need to open and run one workflow every week, but it then runs 23 separate workflows for me.

This might not help in your situation, but it's worth knowing about!

Alteryx is not selling automation/scheduler outside alteryx server products anymore
