Dynamic Output Data Tool

ThankForYourHelp

Hi guys,

 

I have 20 Output Data tool, each with a different tab name in excel. is there a better way to do it instead drag and drop 20 Output Data tool on the canvas?

 

for example 

 

First Output Data tool will do thisexcel.xlsx|||test 1

second Output Data tool will do thisexcel.xlsx|||test 2

and so on.

 

right now I have 20 Output Data tool in my workflow. is there a way to simplify this?

 

Thank you all.

We can use the Dynamic Input tool or Directory Tool, but Are your Excel file data having the same schema?

No, Its for output data not input data

create a full path in a formula tool (filename|sheetname) - you the replace entire path toggle on your output data tool to create a dynamic output data tool. Note - you should have a logic to map the rows you want ot the sheet you want (ie sheetname should tie into another value).
