At the moment the only edit history visible to Trifacta users is within each recipe. Some actions are done within flows rather than recipes, e.g. recipe creation/deletion/taking union/etc. Such actions are not covered within the edit history, but for compliance purposes/troubleshooting it is important for users to know when these actions were taken/who by. Please would it be possible to add the functionality to Trifacta to have an edit history on flows as well as within recipes?

Users onboarded to Trifacta cannot be deleted from the GUI, only using API. In the GUI users can only be disabled but they still count toward the licensed users. Please allow users to be deleted from the GUI.

Users to be able to create multiple connections to data lake. Currently user needs to add new data lake path and browse it in order to import data

In our organization we would like to export path to data lake to be enforced and thus user not able to export to any location but a location desired by the application admins.

When creating a destination to and SQL table on an SQL server, allow you to set the field length and not use the Trifacta output standard of varchar (1024). This would help keep the maintenance on the table easier.

When output a Trifacta formated date, like a derived year (year(mydate) ) or formatted to mmddyyyy that when it is published to a SQL table that it maintains that format or transformation. Currently putting out a formatted or transformed date is put out to the SQL Table in the input format and all transformation and formatting is lost.

I would like the ability to specify a billing project for BigQuery as part of run options. Currently, data queried from BigQuery is associated to the project from which a Dataprep flow is run with no way to change it. For customers we work with in a multi-project environment, they need the flexibility to align queries to specific projects for purposes of cost and usage attribution.

Additionally, for customers on flat-rate BigQuery pricing, a selectable billing project will allow users to move queries to projects under different reservations for workload balancing and/or performance tuning.

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?

Being able to output data to Microsoft Dataverse tables via Alteryx Designer Cloud would be super helpful and a wonderful addition to this great tool. I need to be able to schedule a daily flow to output data to Dataverse tables. While my organization has Alteryx One, we have elected not to enable Cloud Execution for Desktop (for security or maintenance reasons) and we do not have Alteryx Server. So, I need a solution that works from Alteryx Cloud Designer.

When I rename a field in Alteryx - it would be valuable for Alteryx to look at all tools downstream from the select tool and say "Hey - you are using that field - do you want me to clean up the formulas etc".

 

A field is not just letters in a formula - a field is a logical concept / an object - so it should be relatively easy to inspect everywhere there's a dependance on this object downstream and just clean this up automatically.

 

This would get rid of all the painful toil of having to reconfigure tools, change formulae, change select tools etc - that can just all go away in a puff of Aidan Magic.

Hey all,

 

There is already an option to clean up data in the results section - but it's limited to only the cleanups that the Cleanse tool used to do in the on-prem version.

 

Please could you use an inspection of the field to see what cleanup may be relevant?

For example:

A_B - there's no need to offer to clean up numbers - or perhaps just visually decrease that option

    A_B - here the obvious cleanup is leading spaces

"A_B" - the obvious cleanup here is remove quotes

 

It seems that we can bring some smarts to this, since Alteryx AIDAN is AI enabled, to eliminate the toil of data cleansing.

When people ask what's so great about designer desktop, one of the simple things I mention is the record count. I think this would be a great addition to designer cloud. As an example, here's a pointless workflow in designer cloud:

Seems ok, but here's the same thing in desktop:

By just looking at the picture, you can see that I messed up my join and my 780 records have ballooned to 608,400. I can also see that I didn't have any unjoined records pretty easily. Designer cloud has this record count information when you click on each tool, but I think they should display the counts on the canvas like desktop.

Hi all,

When using the Sharepoint connector, using the Sites.Read.All permission on Service Principal does violate customer corporate security measures. The customer is requesting to implement certificate-based authentication for SharePoint Files. See ticket 00683632 for more information.

Thanks
