Need To Know
Your Community pit crew has been working to improve the Weekly Challenge experience, making it easier for users to filter challenges based on difficulty, subject, and certification level. You’ll even able to see which challenges you’ve already solved! Below is a preview, but this design is subject to change.

Read and Listen
We had a few blogs this month with calls to action for our Community members:
- Join Alteryx Talent Alliance: The SparkED team shared about the new LinkedIn group they started to replace the Community job board. This group is for SparkED job seekers (Alteryx Core Certified) and Alteryx customers/employers. Join here!
- It’s Time to Upgrade to Python 3.10: The Alteryx IO team informed us that in order to stay secure and compliant, we are upgrading Designer and Server to Python 3.10 for the 2024.1 release in early May. Find step-by-step instructions for upgrading here.
We also had two great podcast episodes featuring Community members:
- 155: Growing Your Network with the Maveryx Community: Hear from ACE @caltang about how he finds joy in helping people reach their full potential in the Maveryx Community.
- 154: Building an Analytics Center of Excellence: @carolloj joined us to talk about his experience of building an analytics CoE and his tips for others looking to do the same.
Closing
We are excited to see what these next few months bring on the Maveryx Community. Thanks for being along for the ride, and we hope to see you in person at Inspire!
