I'm fairly new to Alteryx and I receive a file with a date and timestamp daily which I need to split. The file name is going to be different every day and stored in a different folder. Is it possible to use Alteryx to create a process that will require the user to browse for the correct file and can the original name and path be used to create multiple output files (name obviously has to be a derivative)? At this stage I'm exploring the possibilities.
Regards
Mark

It is possible! I would suggest checking out creating Apps in Alteryx - specifically the Folder Browse tool (and all the other interface tools).

Regarding the file output - you can append values/use values from fields as the file name for an output.
Here's a help doc on that. https://help.alteryx.com/2018.3/DbFileOutput.htm Check out the section under Configure the tool.
Thanks I'll check them out
