Submission GuidelinesHello Alteryx Team,
Would you consider creating a metadata loader for SharePoint? A lot of companies that we are working with have a lot of data stored in SharePoint and they would like to catalog their metadata.
I am aware that it is possible to use the Files Loader when the SharePoint drive is mapped as a mapped drive in Windows Explorer, but the mapping and subsequent scheduling is very problematic, also because of security policies in large enterprises.
Having a SharePoint dedicated loader would be a great benefit.
Thank you very much for considering this idea.

Hi Alteryx,
currently, when running loaders from the Administration Console - Connections pane, there is no information about the status of the load. Would it be possible to include information such as success/fail message, run length, completion time or next scheduled run time?
This would much simplify monitoring of the scheduled loads and managing the schedule.
Thank you very much.

Jan
Hi Alteryx,
we have noticed that when drilling up/down in the "all mode" in Nexus, it is not possible to see all subsequent relations for assets related to the object, where Nexus was opened.
For example, when opening the Nexus view on a business term:
We are unable to drill into the outgoing relationships for the highlighted Tableau dashboard, the only relation we see is its parent.
Would it be possible to show all relations when drilling up/down in the Nexus view?
Thank you very much.

We are moving our measure specifications that are in a PDF format to the Connect glossary. We would like to keep the formatting that exists in the PDF when copying the spec. However, the format doesn't always copy over. It would be nice to have the 'Format Painter' option similar to what is in MS Word where you can copy the format from one line to another line.
Hi Alteryx Team,
Can you please add PDF or Word Download Option for Glossary Definition Term in Alteryx Connect.
Thanks

Hi Alteryx Team,
We are very glad that the custom field functionality is available in Alteryx Connect. We were wondering, if it would be possible to enhance this functionality and enable additional features like the following:
Thank you very much for considering these ideas.

We found out that we are able to setup Nexus modes in global config settings.
We can distinguish modes by relationship types and object types. It is nice.
We would like to distinguish Nexus setting by object’s location as well (to show/hide objects in diagram by their location).
For example to show terms from one folder and to hide terms from another.
We ask you to make possibility to setup Nexus to filter out objects by their location.
Hello,
Could you make saving filter settings inside folders for each user individually?
We a have a lot of terms and other assets, and when user works with his own assets he would like to return to folder with last filter settings.
Otherwise user has to set up filters again.
Virtual folders are not convenient because if each of thousand users will create his own virtual folder(s) it will be hard to navigate inside thousands of virtual folders.
When I add descriptions to tables or columns in Connect then use that asset in a workflow, I would like to see the same table and column descriptions within the metadata in Designer. To illustrate, I've shared some screenshots...
