Alteryx Analytics Cloud Product Ideas

Users have asked for the ability to create new versions of recipes so that they can collaborate safely. Also there is a need to keep an audit history of changes. Trifacta has recipe level history but that does not fulfil the whole use case of version control. 

I want to create a dynamic output file name in both the Trifacta UI and New Designer Cloud UI. I know that I can create a timestamp or a parameter, but it seems like the parameterization in Trifacta is static. Instead of having to manually override the parameter every run, I am wanting to grab the desired filename from a field in the dataset. This is a functionality commonly used in Desktop Designer, so I'm hoping for it to be added to the Cloud soon!

When migrating flows from one environment to another, currently one must click on each flow to export it, and then import it into another environment. It would be great to do so in bulk by ticking a bunch of flows to export. Or do it by exporting an entire folder. Or do it by exporting a plan.

Hello all,

Sometimes, you find some messy worklow and you want to make it clean

You can align manually the tools but it would be better to have the exact same function than on Alteryx Designer on-premise :

At the moment, long formulas are very difficult to read because they cannot be "beautified". Instead of allowing for multi-line text and indentation, our formulas are in a single-line, wrapped textbox. It would be very helpful if Trifacta supported "beautification-enabled" textboxes for formulas so that we can write formulas that are easy to read and understand.

Hello,

I need to store many variable RegEx in column to use it in MATCHES function (for example).

But Dataprep doesn't currently support a column as an input in a way that the pattern inside it is read as an actual regular expression.

I think this feature could be a great feature !

Thanks.

When i use Dataprep full day, i would prefer to have a dark theme to preserve my eyes ! If we could swith between a dark or a light theme, it would be the best solution !

Hello,

I have noticed the AACP is upgraded at a fast pace... however, I don't know when and now I discover the upgrade when I go sometimes on the Release Notes https://help.alteryx.com/AAC/en/release-notes.html

So an email notifications with the changes would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Simon

Hello,

On Alteryx Designer on-premise, we can set background and text color (and other settings...). It's very useful because it allows to have a color palette by functional or technical feature of the container.

And as an example of the popularity of this color feature, this post on linkedin :

Currently, when a recipe is copied, any data qualities within the original recipe are not duplicated in the copied version. In order to implement a systematic data quality program, the rules must be manually created for every single recipe, which obviously takes a lot of time. It would be great if the data quality rules could persist when the recipe is copied.

We would like to be able to split users into different user groups within the same workspace. Permissions to view and edit outputs, job runs and flows (including for administrators) would be allocated on a user group level (e.g. so one user group can edit flows, the associated job runs and outputs while other groups can only view them). Administrators would be allocated to a particular user group and their admin rights would apply to their own group only.

Please add features to your current "Folder" feature by allowing us to share them with other users, move a flow that has been "shared" with us from the root folder to a sub-folder, etc.

Someone has already submitted an idea for multiple levels of sub-folders which was another request that we had. Thanks.

Standardize is an amazing function! ... if you know that you won't have any more values added to a column later. With standardize, it's impossible to account for future source values.

It would be super helpful if there were a way to add additional Source Values (and, accordingly, New Values for those source values) to account for values that might appear in the future (but aren't in your data right now).

I realize there are already a number of ways to account for "future" values. Some examples include if...then...else, condition column > case on single column, condition column > case on custom column. However, these transforms are not friendly for those unfamiliar with coding in low-code tools, and this no-code upgrade to Standardize could help these users.

When I'm on the Flow workspace, if I do a click on a recipe, the steps displays on the float right box.

Unfortunately, i'can't select and copy steps :-/

I'm forced to load the recipe to copy steps before past it in another recipe. I think that everyone would gain some time to copy steps directly from the Flow view !

:-)

There is no explicit sharing functionality for user macros between users or groups of users. Currently, the closest thing is users gain access to an owner’s macros within a flow once the flow is shared with them. It would be good to be able to share macros in the same way that users can share flows.

Hello,

Right now, there are a few filters available on the top of the window

Among the one Iwould like :
-status like status supported that would hide the "(Early Preview)".
-features (Import and Publish versus Import only)

We use heavily Tibco Data Virtualization server views and web services in our organization.

We need to have official connector supported by Trifacta to connect and fetch data from those.

Parquet has been more performant than publishing to csv and love to have this feature implemented

Currently is scheduling allowed only on Instance level.

The request is to be able to allow scheduling for particular user, instead for all instance users.

Please create the functionality to be able to find Tool ID numbers within the frame of the canvas. When doing so now, I am only able to find tool names like Summarize, Data Cleansing, etc. For example, I want to be able to CTRL+F "152" and be taken to tool ID #152 directly on the canvas.

 

An added bonus would be to find by tool type like you can on Desktop.
