List Box Tool Dynamic Input

list Hello,

Running Alteryx 2018.3.7.

 

Sometimes workflow examples open.

However, with newer workflows I occasionally receive the "more recent version of Alteryx" warning and the workflow will not open.

 

Struggling with the List Box Interface Tool.

 

Question: Can someone assist me with using the list box tool and being able to bring data into the workflow based on date?

Been playing around with the List Box Tool and had the ability to select columns. Do I have to convert the columns to rows?

 

Want the ability to be select the particular dates in Column 1 and import associated data.
Dummy data below.

Appreciate any assistance.

Hi @kgordish one way to bring in data into the list box interface is to create an external source with columns as Name and Value referencing your data. See the example belowListBox.JPG

Thank you for the Lesson. Just leveled.

 

The Name Value Pathway was key and really helpful!
