Chained App not picking up fields

[wonka1234]

Hi,

I have a chained app, part 1 and part 2. 

The idea of this app is to pickup inputted files (excel) and take the fields as a drop down where one can choose what to join on..

Part 1 -

part 2 of chained app -

Columns in standard recon : First Name , Lat Name, City.

Column in standard recon 2 : First Name, Last Name  

I can run it fine like this.

However if i add the column "CITY" to my recon 2 file, this does not show up in the drop down for analytic app.

How can I properly get all my fields for the join drop down in an analytic app?

example of name and value - 

workflow 2 - 

but getting error 

Join (71): The field "1" is missing. Compare the tool configuration with the input stream.

@wonka1234 ,

No, the Name field is what you are selecting.

You can't have multiple fields on one tool.

Check the example file

@wonka1234 ,

if you read the previous posts you have all the information.

In the last one, the file input you were using did not match the format I provided.

I have provided the link to learn how to use the Dropdown tool, please read that.

Without seeing your workflow, I don't need the data, I can't help any more. You have all the information.

The problem is how you are using the Dropdown tool.

@wonka1234  might be worth a visit to: Chaining Analytic Apps - Alteryx Community this should reinforce @mceleavey points pay special attention to the second app drop down.
