Error in Find and Replace Tool -

Hello Reader,

 

While opening my designer file, I see issue with Find & Replace Tool every time I open it.

 

Can you please help? I have attached screenshot for reference.

 

Each time I have to reconfigure and save it. Yet the same issue.

 

Please note, I recently changed my laptop and installed alteryx on it. I am facing this issue since then. Is there any connection?

@ankush-agrawal, in the screenshot for the first part of the workflow you are using a static file with the columns to be replaced but for the second workflow you are using a dynamic tool to replace the or append the field which you are calling using dynamic input tool try passing a static table there and the issue will be resolved.

I understand your point. But I think I found the solution, it was error from my end. In the dynamic input tool, I had incorrect file as sample, which was creating the issue. When I referred to correct file, I can see the issue is resolved, I am not getting any error when I reopen the file.

Appreciate your time and sharing the understanding.

@ankush-agrawal , yes that is one of the cases as well as you put a file in the dynamic input tool it will read the columns on that basis, if you just have a specific file then you can use that to input default columns.

 

Glad we could help!

 

Thanks!
