A new idea to suggest a new community feature or improvement
I think the New Posts feed could be improved by filtering the Challenge question answers out of it. They push out people's actual new comments and questions.
I wonder if it would be helpful to show/discuss the legal and/or compliance benefits related to alteryx.
It would be great to have a forum for users/partners to submit their solutions to each of the weekly challenges (moreso the advanced ones).
Would be a good way to see how others have approached problems, and create a bit of competition as to who can get the 'slickest' answer!
Nice podcast on Accessibility! I recently passed my Core Certification and I am a frequent user of the interactive videos which are great, so thank you. I love that there are transcripts on these, as I learn best by reading.
Have you considered making the playback speed adjustable on these resources? On audiobooks I usually slow it down to .75 or .8 speed and it's a big help, especially when I don't want to miss an important word or concept. I believe Netflix is also adding speed adjustment options. I know that there are people with auditory processing disorders that could probably benefit from a feature like that as well.
Thanks!

When me or my clients try to compare alteryx to other vendors,
we all end up seeing graphs like the one below. These are showing how very few tags alteryx has on stackoverflow...
Clients often consider how it's easy to find answers to common analytics or software related questions. Alteryx seems to have a lag in there.
I wish, me and all of Alteryx community friends could be able to link their Alteryx accounts to the stackoverflow accounts and once we write down a question it's going to be automatically posted on stackoverflow and when an answer is received it'll update us as well...
I sincerely believe that this will greately increse the word of mouth effect on Alteryx products.

Kaggle competitions are widely known in academia but not so much in the industry, at least in MENA region...
Mostly college grads, ML practicioners and analytics consultants are attending who frequently code... Instead Community can provide
To name a few tutorials;
Some recent interesting competitions are;
It may even be a nicer idea if someone publishes a top %1 solution in competitions using Alteryx,
discounts to inspire events or personal licenses may be provided or automatically becoming an ACE for 6 months/a year etc.
I needed to mention Alteryx Support team,
in order to inform them about an issue I came across...
But couldn't find any users called
we need to mention them in our community post I belive to make sure the issues clients and potential cliens hwho are trying the demo are answered on time etc...
Best
Could we add the capability to quickly get to the list of ideas that I have posted so that I can check on them and / or add to them?
The use case here is that often I'll say to someone "Yip - we suggested this as an idea, please add comments here...", but with hundreds of ideas in the system, it's not easy to see the ideas that are mine so that I can quickly refer someone to the right link. This can be done via the advanced search, but this is somewhat awkward to use (you have to search for something, then hit advanced search, then filter for yourself as author and Ideas as category, and then go through this page at a time)
A nice way of doing this may be to embed a tableau dash in each users's profile page, so that you can see your own ideas, grouped by popularity or grouped by tag, or by date posted etc.
Can we have a dedicated section on the community for just Tips and Tricks where people can post tips and tricks that they would have discovered ? This could be a short video or a screenshot with some description.
Idea for @PatrickN
Really love the certification - it's a tremendous tool for both the community at large, and for Alteryx to grow their trained user base.
How would you feel about bringing a page into the "Academy" section of the community site so that people can easily find this (that seems like a logical place to keep this)?
thank you again for the work on the certification program - @patrick_digan mentioned to me that there are now over 50 people certified already (56 this morning) - not bad at all for a 6 day old certification program!
Lumping Connect in with Gallery makes it difficult to find things specific to Connect. There is already one thread tagged as "Connect," which has nothing to do with Connect. I know it is new, and there is little activity, but with the issues I am experiencing, I expect the space to explode very quickly.
Hey there,
Please forgive me if I'm the only one who works like this - but one of my standard processes with the alteryx community is to frequently scan new posts, and then make a note to come back to the ones that either I want to respond to; or spend learning time on etc.
The way I currently do this is to take the URL, and pop it into Google Keep - I have 3 google Keep lists:
- One for Learning
- One for community stuff (general responses)
- one for my immediate priorities (generally stuff that I owe someone a personal response on).
Not sure if anyone else would find this useful, but i'd really value the ability to do this within the alteryx community site itself. What I'm thinking of is:
a) mark a topic as "Add to list" and then like on the Amazon Wishlist I can select which list
b) I can then print out a digest of the posts that are in a particular list for reading on the train / car / flight etc
c) this list becomes my 3rd notfication list then - currently we have notifications for alerts; personal messages - we can then add this as a 3rd item.
Essentially this could work like youtube "Save for later".
Anyone else find this useful - if so, give it ia star :=_
Happy Wednesday

I'd really like to see a data release schedule posted right where data download page is. I have searched for "data release schedule" on Alteryx site, but nothing pop up. I think it is somewhere as I have seen it before, but it is not easily found. And I'd like this to be a regular production post so we don't have to look or ask for it every year/quarter/month. That way, I don't have to keep emailing if there will be any data refresh to fulfillment or client services. The schedule should be posted right where we are looking for data.
Given the certification exams are accessed through the community, I would like the option to have 2 step authentication on my profile by registered email address/phone SMS. Is it possible to add this as a feature within the profile settings so that those who would like to add more security to their profile are able to do so?
This is probably just the neat-freak inside of me but I've been noticing more an more Community posts that don't really belong where they are. Examples:
To help the moderators out, I think adding a "Suggest Move" option to the Options Menu on a post (pictured below) would be valuable.
When selecting this option a little window could pop up with a list of the different areas of the Community. The user would then select the one that they feel the post should be moved too. Moderators would then see all the suggested moves on a special screen and perform the move if they agree. Ideally, any hyperlinks to the moved post that exist within other posts on the community would be redirected.
The positive benefits of this would be:
Pinned discussions appear at the top of the Discussions page. The current 3 pinned posts haven't had a reply in 2,3,15 months. Would it be possible to move pinned posts to the right side of the screen, along with Top Solution Authors and Top Starred Posts? This would provide more space at the top of the page for active discussions.
The weekly challenges provide such a rich resource for strengthening your Alteryx abilities but for new uses a lot of time is spent merely collecting the older challenges to work on them. I would suggest creating a page with all of the start files, and a page with all of the solution files so that all of the challenges can be downloaded from a single location. This would also provide an opportunity for a new weekly challenge to build a workflow that downloads challenges within a specified range, create windows folders for each week, and cleanse the pesky underscores from the front and end of many of the files.
I love using "Reply" in email notifications but I've noticed that the reply in community has breaks, e.g.
Is this a feature, a bug or something I'm doing? If it could be fixed that would be great as it detracts from my reply.
It would be great if we could attached multiple files in a single post/reply. Thank you!
