To create the desired workflow in Alteryx, you can follow these steps:

Use an "Input Data" tool to accept the file name from the user as an input parameter.
Utilize the "Azure Blob Input" tool to connect to the Azure file share and search for the Excel file based on the input provided.
Process the Excel file using various Alteryx tools like "Filter", "Formula", or "Join" based on your specific requirements.
Finally, use an "Output" tool to generate the result in PDF format.

 

Remember to configure the necessary settings and connections in Alteryx for connecting to Azure and specifying the desired output format.
