Is it possible to backup/migrate Scheduling from Alteryx Desktop Automation?

I have a scenario case that I need to change machine from Alteryx Desktop with automation to another. Since there are many scheduling workflow set up on previous machine. Is possible to create a backup and migrate scheduling workflows to another?

Hello,

 

When it comes to transferring schedules, usually your schedules are stored in a specified folder structure when you configured Desktop Automation. You can see which folder it saves in under Options->Advanced->Settings. It should look something like this if you didn't change it: C:\ProgramData\Alteryx\Service\Persistence\

 

You can move that folder to the new machine and point the settings to this folder on the new machine when setting up.
