Hi,

 

I want to have a user specify the sheet by choosing from a dropdown of sheets within selected file.

 

Currently I browse to select the xlsx file.

Can this be done? What is the typical practice for this?

Alteryx should automatically load a dropdown of sheets for excel file entered into the file browse tool.

can you share a screen grab of the configuration of your action tool? can you confirm that input data is set up for an excel file?

 

also - try running as workflow first - and then run as app. could be a general update issue.
