Alteryx Cheat Sheet

[mike_psaris]

Hi, 

Has anyone created an Alteryx Cheat Sheet? We have new users in our organization and it would be great to have a quick reference of commonly used and perhaps some less well known, but very useful tools.

Thanks!

Hi ! Good question. I suggest checking the 2015 Tips and Tricks booklet we put together for Inspire which covers our latest tips & tricks as well as those we can't do without. A Cheat Sheet for all the tools is in the last pages. Enjoy.

Find the below Alteryx links:

1.For excel users- Alteryx & Excel

2.For SQL users -Alteryx & SQL

You can ask them to go through the resources available in this link - https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Academy/ct-p/alteryx-academy.

And also taking up the basic level certification which is free of cost would help them to get started with Alteryx.
