hi @udayan 

The interface is dynamic and actually there are many freely available resources:

1) Check out the Example workflows for the tools under the Interface category. (Right-click on the Tool, then click on the "Open example" hyperlilnk.

2) Check out the Interactive Lessons. The section on Analytics App in particular covers a bit of interface element (https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Interactive-Lessons/tkb-p/interactive-lessons/label-name/Creating%2...)

3) Check out the Tool Mastery as well. https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Knowledge-Base/Tool-Mastery-Index/ta-p/84593

Hope this helps.

Dawn.

Hi @udayan 

It depends on what you mean by "Dynamic".  

1.  "You can display different values on the UI at the start of the workflow".  In this case the answer is yes.  You can set up the UI tools to read from files or databases to show dynamic data.  @DawnDuong's links will help you in this case 

2.  "Changes made in one interface tool at run time will affect the values displayed in another" Here, the answer is no.  The UI is completely configured before the workflow is run.  The UI tools are independent and do not affect each other, with exception that check boxes can collapse groups and hide other UI tools.  To build this type of UI you'll need to look into chained apps.

Hi. Your second point give a clear idea about the mechanism of the interface. Resources related to Chained app is really helpful. Really appreciate your answer.🙂
