Input file from Network Shared Drive

Hello:

Good afternoon Analytics folks. How can the workflow always pick specific .xlsx input files from a network-shared drive every time it runes in the Alteryx Gallery? Do I need to configure anything else in the input tool other than selecting file? I mean How my Alteryx workflow will remember the input file/s from Network shared drive?

Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Hi @Kinetic_analytics 

 

1) The network folder must be shared with the Alteryx Server Machine.

 

2)Go to Options -> Advanced Options -> Workflow dependencies and set all inputs/outputs to UNC

3)When saving your workflow to the gallery, go to Workflow Options -> Manage workflow assets and be sure that every resource is unselected and that you can see the fullpath of them.
