Dynamic input tool retrieves populates data but not bring the file name

[isokando]

hello,

there are multiple excel files in supfolders. I am able to consolidate the data of the files I want in Alteryx using the Dynamic Input tool. So this works, but I also like to get the full path of the each source file data is retrieved from.

Any suggestions to do this within the dynamic tool? 

fyi... when I chose any of the Actions on the dynamic tool to append; it gives an error...

In Dinamyc Imput tooll you will set the fiel at yellow to FULL PATH.

You will have a last field with the fullpath!

Hi @isokando,

You can certainly do this! If you go to "edit"

You'll be able to change additional your additional options to generate the full file path

If this solves your issue please mark the answer as correct, if not let me know!

Regards,

Jonathan
