Export Output as Zip file in Alteryx

Navyasree123

I have an Alteryx Analytic App which outputs 40 excel files which can be downloaded on server one by one. I want to change it so that just a zip file containing those 40 files can be downloaded on server/gallery. I have seen multiple threads about it, but haven't been able to find a solution.


In my file overall 4000 KB data , while running that I'm getting an error i have attached the image for error.


I'd be really grateful if someone is able to help with this.


Thanks
