@Kinetic_analytics I think the Blob tool would be useful for your use case. The below post will give you an idea of the Blob tool

Hello,

 

another workaround I use is to do it directly in excel, let's say I have a sheet where I have the template formatted as I want directly in excel, which is then linked through whatever formula (sumif, sumifs, vlookups or even pivots) to a second data sheet written by Alteryx.

 

So when I run Alteryx I select in the output tool overwrite sheet and that refreshes the data base and ultimately my template sheet.

 

Not super clean but kind of effective.
