Alteryx Community Ideas

It would be great if there were a way to see the all the product ideas I've starred. Right now, if I want to review those ideas I'm going to need to scroll through all of them looking for gold stars. Perhaps some kind of activity log in the user profile could provide us with this information?

When I surf around the community, a quick survey pops up

It does so simultaneously in multiple open pages and even though you complete one the others start popping again...

And I receive the survey nearly everytime I log on... It gets a little annoying...

It may be nice to be able have quicker access to social media for shareing questions, solutions, challenges...

On facebook, twitter with shortcut links to community, instagram with workflow and tool pictures etc...

 

By the way;

I'd like to have the "Mark All as Read" option in the Knowledge Base like it is in other sections. Not that I could ever read them all, but this is my system for identifying new posts.

Why is there no Label in the Community specific to "Reporting"?

The knowledge base site is a great resource for finding help, but it lacks the ability to favorite or bookmark articles for easy access in the future, similar to how community blogs/posts can be saved.

 

That is all. 🙂

Hello Maveryx Community,

 

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to save your open source projects directly to the community page, as you would when saving a workflow to a gallery? This way we could upload and download our workflows from the community page, and treat it as a repository/portfolio page with Alteryx specific projects. It could be even tailored so that you can preview it, in a form of a html page without download, to see how the workflow looks, without having to download it. Option to mark projects as private or public would be nice too, to filter out who can and who can't see the given project. What do you think about this idea, not needed, or a cool addition?

Hello all,

I don't think AACP acronym is obvious for everyone... maybe calling the idea section to it  "AACP (Cloud)" would help ?

It would be great to add a way for users to mark questions as solved if another user has posted a valid solution for a topic. I often find myself opening posts to try and help answer their questions only to find that a solution has already been provided but the topic was left unresolved. Maybe some logic can be added to only allow this option if the post is over a month old. That way, the original author still has a chance to mark the question as resolved. Otherwise, active users can help clean up the posts by marking questions as resolved by selecting the provided solution. 

Alteryx Team, When someone attempts for certification exams, results should be sent to registered email ID immediately after completion of exam. Currently the PDF's are not sent automatically and candidate needs to follow up for the same. In case of Pass - A PDF copy of certificate can be sent. In case of failed - Along with the result, areas of improvements can be shared where the candidate need to put more effort when appearing for next time. How many attempts are remaining for current month? This feature will be a useful feature for the candidates appearing for certifications.

I know I'm not the only one who has noticed this small but annoying bug. Whenever you search for a workflow in the Gallery window, the search results do not appear as expected. For example, if you know that the workflow JMB_WORKFLOW exists in the Gallery and you search, "JMB" it doesn't show up but if you search "WORKFLOW" it shows up as a search result.

 

There are countless examples of various complexities with this but the short of it is: I can type the exact name of a workflow that exists in the Gallery and the search function/algorithm will not return it as a result. This might be the search algorithm or something else, but as a newer user I was shocked to see that such a simple function was not working in a way that I would consider proper for 2023.

As of now, if a community member has to access the community, there are 2 ways:

 

1. Log in to the website from Desktop

2. Log in to the website from Mobile

 

When we are working on Alteryx workflows, it makes sense that accessing from Desktop is the best.

 

But when we are away from Desktop and having a conversation on a thread, it get's really bad from a user experience perspective that we have to go to browser, login and then access the community.

 

I think Alteryx should develop iOS and Android App for the community. It will increase the engagement of community members considerably.

 

Thanks!

Not sure it happens in every browser but here is how it looks on me;

 

 

 

Hello,

I don't think the "Revisit" status is useful. What we want to know is the probability/delay of the idea to be released and "revisit" doesn't offer any information about that.

Problem: I am seeing that sometimes to solve a single topic, a thread of messages start between the OP and some specific user, and in the end, some OP`s can give 5 to 10 (yes, 10) marked as solved answers for this specific user for just one topic/problem. 

 

I understand this situation as a problem for 2 reasons:

 

1-It can harm the Community Hygiene. If users start to crack the game and flood topics just to try to get more marked as solved answer point`s per topic, the topics will start to get messy and confusing.

 

2-This is unfair from the points perspective. Some users that are trying to give concise and correct answers are and will get far less points than the ones that are possibly cracking the game.

 

Real example of a topic with 10 marked as solved answers for just one user

 

Solution:  I undestand that if only 1 marked as solved point was accounted for each user that had the answer selected as a correct answer per topic, the incentive for this behaviour would decrease.

 

Hi,

Can a User's Community Identity and their level of certification be added as columns here (see picture)?  My thought is that my company wants Designer users to be Core Certified as a best practice and this would give us a way to monitor that.  

 

 

 

Thanks,
