Error Running a Flow I downloaded from Alteryx Server in Alteryx Desktop

[nicolasbustamante]

Hello,

I am new to Alteryx and this is my first time editing flows. I am currently trying to make changes to a coworkers flow that has moved on to a new role. I have downloaded their file and reuploaded it to my company server under a different name. I am working within designer to make changes to the flow and I try to run the flow inside of the designer and I get this error. This is why I'm assuming whenever I add a new tool to the flow such as DateTime from Parse, there is no items in the dropdown field for me to pick from.

Input Data (1714) Error SQLDriverConnect: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Note that when I run this flow within the server it runs fine and only breaks when I run it from my computer. Any insights or help is appreciated!

Look for an Input Data tool, tool id 1714.  After you open the workflow in Designer, you can search (CTRL F) for 1714.

It looks like the Input Data tool may be using a DSN (data source name) that is not configured on your machine, and you may not have the required ODBC driver on your machine.

Post a screenshot of tool id 1714

When you download WF from the Gallery, paths might change, so you will need to ensure that you have the correct path.

Now you mentioned that someone else built the WF, do you have access to that drive, or the same rights as the other user had?
