Data Connection

Desmond — Wed, 26 Apr 2023 16:02:03 GMT

I am attempting to setup a Gallery connection to Snowflake. I have shared the connection with myself and I can see the connection from Designer on my machine. However, I am unable to see the connection through Designer on Alteryx Server. I have tried to sync the data connections on Server but the connection does not appear. I have another Gallery connection to Snowflake I set up a couple years ago and I can see it just fine in Designer on my machine and on the Server. Any suggestions?

If you create a DCM or Data Connection on the Server you’ll be able to see them in Designer. The other way around is not possible.

I have 20 other data connections I have created the same way and can see them through Designer on the Server.
