Installing connectors on server

craigja — Thu, 05 Dec 2024 13:51:07 GMT

Just getting up to speed with Server Admin on Alteryx - Ive installed a few connectors, SharePoint, SalesForce, Tableau and PowerBI. I ran the Designer Desktop as Admin and when I opened the tools installers I clicked the option to install for all users - I got successful install messages for them all. What I find strange is that according to a google, I should see all the connectors in the C:\ProgramData\Alteryx\Tools folder, but that does not even exist on the server, so where are these being installed to?

Hi @craigja ,

The ProgramData folder is usually hidden but you can access it by adding the path in the address bar or select to show all hidden folders.

I`m not entirely sure of this one (maybe the folder is always on C), but if your server is installed on the D drive, the connectors might be on D:\ProgramData\Alteryx\Tools

Best,
