Orchestrating nested standard macros in Analytic App

dzhukov

Hi all

 

I have an Analytic App. It has 4 containers (screenshot). Container 219 checks at startup whether today is the 10th working day or the container was started manually (checkbox 7), otherwise it fails. There are 3 containers that should be run one after another: 220, 221, 222.

Everything works fine on the Alteryx Desktop, the containers run one after another. But when I run it on the server, the containers run simultaneously. I cannot use the 'Control Containers Tool' because the Alteryx version is 2022.3. I couldn't use 'Block Until Done' as connections to nested macros are not established. I cannot use the CREW macro.

Can you please suggest any other ways to make nested macros run sequentially on the server, rather than all at once?

Thanks!

@dzhukov could control containers do the trick?

@aatalai they said Control Containers are not an option due to their version

 

@dzhukov here's one option that may work:Dynamically enabling / disabling workflow sections

@alexnajm, thanks for the idea, I converted the Standard Macro to Batch Macro and was able to use "Block Until Done":
