Desktop Automation | Unable to access files on a network folder

Product name: Alteryx Admin Designer 

Version: 2019.3.5.17947

 

Hello there,

I would like to schedule a workflow, importing a file on a network folder and output on another network folder. But it doesn't work.

The results show below.

Is it possible to schedule a workflow based on files on network folders?

 

I tried following.

Add workflow to schedule button ->  My Computer -> select "Run a copy of the workflow stored in the Scheduler DB" -> set frequency.

 

Any idea?

Thanks,

NT

Hi, @SETD 

 

Maybe you need r/w access permission for the path, and can't include Multi-byte character in UNC ?

Hello @flying008,

Thanks for responding.

I actually have r/w access permission for the path, and I tried to copy resource files to another location that does not include Multi-bite characters in UNC, but received same result.
