Hi,

 

Im getting an error when trying to read in files in my server workflow:

How can I fix this? It seemingly is not an access issue, as ive tried importing the files through my desktop:

my action tool is update value -> replace specific string

I only update up until my Sheet is .. so I deleted the |||SheetName.

change this from file|||sheet to file|sheet and see if that helps. Server only has one pipe.

 

You can also attach the file input location to a text input tool and have that connected to a .csv (or any other output tool for easy access) - you can then see the exact filepath which is being passed to Alteryx and see if that works with your action tool replace/input tool logic.
