Macro configuration error

Hi I am new to macro in Alteryx and have recently noticed this pop out error in the standard macro workflow created: 

 

"Macro Contains Configuration Error: Tabs are only valid at the top level" 

 

I am not able to open the workflow as well as inserting the the macro into the canvas. 

 

Appreciate input from you guys on this matter!

 

Thank you

Hey @GahMan94

 

Had a quick search for your issue but can't find a lot..

 

Can you share screenshots or files of the macro and the workflow?

Hi @GahMan94,

 

I am not familiar with this issue but I found a topic about it on the forum:

Hope this helps.

Are you able to upload a copy of the macro, as well as some sample data to test with? This will allow us to better help you troubleshoot.

 

It looks like you may have incorrectly connected/configured some of the tools within the macro.

I have exactly the same issue.

 

Everything runs fine, just when I click in the macro (single click) it shows this error message...
