Excited to see where Copilot goes! Will there be examples or templates showing how it can speed up workflow building for beginners?

[EKasminsky]

I personally don't use it. It always tells me there are too many tools in the Alteryx workflow for it to work properly. When it does work, it likes telling me what tools can be changed by their number and not necessarily their location. I can find quicker solutions with Google or using the community forums. 

I wish Alteryx would focus more on making outputs look nicer and be easier to edit. It seems like everything is so AI focused in every industry ever, and this is just another example of it.

Thanks @WirkKarl! Copilot will not exactly have templates or examples, I'm curious about how you envision this?

However, Copilot will be able to speed up workflow building for beginners by helping suggest the right next tool (or tools!) and even put them on canvas, configured with an explanation of what tools it added and why.

I'd like to see more use cases about how to work with Alteryx Copilot

[mcardenas]

Hi @EKasminsky - thanks for your input! We've made a ton of updates to Copilot, including removing the limitation of tools on canvas. I would love for you to download the latest version and let us know what you think!

Also, what  do you mean when you say, "I wish Alteryx would focus more on making outputs look nicer and be easier to edit"? What types of outputs are you referring to?

[mcardenas]

Thanks @dreldrel. When you say more use cases, do you mean industry specific? Prompting suggestions? 

[EKasminsky]

I tried the new version of Copilot and got a lot of errors due to a rate limit having been reached. I only got it to answer one question and it added two tools, one of which was helpful but logical (auto field tool) and a random sampling tool, which was not.

I can't get it to work now.

Also, I would love to make it easier to format what a final .xlsx output looks like without having to make a template and using blob tools.
