Alteryx Compatability with Makefile

[tcroberts]

Hi,

In my previous work I used Makefiles (info here) quite a bit to run groups of scripts or build parts of a project with ease. I was wondering if anyone had experience in running Alteryx workflows using Make. I've created a workflow that does all of the preprocessing of my data for a project, and would like it to run whenever this data updates. I can set up a cron job to run this Makefile every so often, which will only actually execute the code if something in the dependencies has changed (i.e. the file had been uploaded). I'm just a little unsure how to get the workflow to run from the command line.

I appreciate any help you can give,

Thanks
