Hi,

 

I am a newbie to Alteryx and learning Alteryx.

Need help to design a workflow with following connection(s) / requirements:

 

a) Need to pull values from a specific column ( filter values ) in an excel sheet ( preferably in NAS location )

b) Use that particular set of column values ( filter values ) in loop and generate pdf version of tableau dashboard using tabcmd command.

I have working tabcmd command with me but in the tabcmd export command I need to do pass the values in step a) in an iteration.

 

Here is the tabcmd command I am trying to use:

export -t <SiteName> "<DashboardName>/<SheetName>?<FilterName>=<FilterValue>" --fullpdf -f "C:\Users\sriram28\Desktop\Test\exporttopdf.pdf"

 

Filter Values are present in the excel sheet  as mentioned in a)

Need to automate export2pdf using Alteryx.

Thanks for your time, do we need any license for the same?

Is this a paid service?
