Call Macro with other Macro inside

mathias_schnoor — Thu, 24 May 2018 01:26:39 GMT

Hey!

I bulid a Macro(A) with other Marcos(B, C) inside Macro (A).

Each Macro need user input to work together and calculate the right output.

Than I generate a new Workflow to test the Marco(A).

But the input option for the Marco(B, C) is never display on my test workflow. Only the input option, that is develop for Macro(A) is displaying on the workflow.

Are my requirements possible in Alteryx?

Or is the an other solution?

Best regards

Mathias

Hey!

There's no way to pull them in automatically, you just need to create new questions in A and connect the actions of those to the questions of the macros B and C.

You're updating the name of the question - it's a little confusing, you need to use the action to update the Value - highlighted in red below.
