Copy Allocate Input variables to Allocate Append

[dtokarz312]

Hello Alteryx friends, 

I created an automated demographic report at the MSA level. Now the client wants to switch to drive-time. I have over 200 variables selected in the Allocated Input list, most them have been re-named as well. Is there a way to copy that variable list to the Allocated Append tool? Thank you in advance.

Best, 

Derek

Derek, where does the variable renaming happen - with a Select tool?  I might tackle adding your fields by editing the .yxmd in a text editor, copying the 200 variables from the Allocate Input (from the original.yxmd) and pasting into the Variables section in the Allocate Append tool.  Add the Select tool after the Append where the field names options can be saved and reloaded.
