Alteryx Designer doesn't read/process part of the workflow (Text Input/Input Data)

Hi.

I'm creating a macro that, at some point, needs to read external data (here created via the Text Input tool). It happens, however, that the stream does not read this chunk.

 

See the prints below: in the first one it is clear that the flow was not run in that part; the second shows that the Text Input tool specifically was not read.

Previously, in this same flow, I also use this tool. At that time it runs normally.

 

I thought it might be something related to the Text Input tool. But, even when I put an external .CSV file to read, there is no change: nothing is read.

 

I tried copying and pasting into a new workflow because I suspected it might be something macro related. But even so, this passage was not read.

 

How can I solve this problem?

 

Thanks.

Hi @gabe_tony 

 

How many rows/columns do you have on this text input? Very strange behavior.

Hi @gabe_tony 

Could you take a look at the metadata of the text input file if anything has been copied into it may have created really large sized columns unecessarily.

Also maybe try adjusting the AMp engine on/off.

Hi!

It's a table with 25 columns and 3 rows

I checked the XML and didn't see anything strange. AMP on/off didn't work either, unfortunately

Hi @gabe_tony 

 

Maybe copying all components from the canvas and placing it into a new canvas could help. Some bugs can be solved doing this.

Hi, @Felipe_Ribeir0

 

At first: thanks for your help!

I tried this at same time as I noticed that some bug was occurring, and tried again as soon as I saw your suggestion: unfortunately, it didn/t work neither..
