Alteryx Analytics Cloud Product Ideas

We would like to have a means to capture

which workflow was run,
the user who ran it,
if errors were encountered (like using the Events function in Desktop),
Row count of each output generated (in our case it is Excel files. I'd like a way to show which output files were created, which tabs were created/written to the individual output file)
Beginning and ending timestamps after workflow executes successfully. There is no performance profiling in Cloud, so this would be the only health check that the workflow is withstanding more data and tools being thrown at it.

For controls and audit purposes, we need the above items. For now, the tedious work-around recommended was to write all records that were written to Excel users to a database table. This is not ideal.

Hi Alteryx,

Most of our clients, particularly those from the government and financial sectors, have strict restrictions on cloud-based data storage. While they are open to using cloud products, they are concerned about the possibility of users uploading sensitive data to the cloud.

Given this, could you consider implementing a control that prevents data uploads to the cloud, while still allowing access to cloud-based features where necessary?
