Connect SharePoint files and run it in Alteryx

[saachitalwar]

Hi, I have a multiple files in different folders in sharepoint and I want to access them in alteryx.

I tried the sharepoint input tool but it's giving this error - 'SharePoint Input (2) User must be logged in.'

Any guidance with this is appreciated

Have you logged into the account in the tool? Can you show us it is connected to a folder?

Also what version Designer and what version of the tool are you using?

This is how I've configured it

Please try the suggestion it says - you should be able to pop open a web browser and log in from there based on the way you've tried to set it up

When I click on Connect it takes me to a page where I select my account but when it is selected then 'Failed to connect to sharepoint' pops up on alteryx. 404 errors keeps on coming

Can you try to do Files instead of Lists and see if that works? Otherwise it may be something that your IT is preventing

Can you show us the error as well?

Ah yes, if I select files options then it's asking for admin permission.

Is there any workaround for this and open the SP files in alteryx?

The best avenue is to get admin permission - you can try to use the other sign in methods if you have that information but you'll likely need an admin for that too
