Python Tool - Dynamic File Path Input and Output Destination

[Anna92]

Hi there,

My python code currently works in this workflow as is, but I'm hoping to change the following code blocks (3, 6 and 10) to pull the template PDF file (f3921.pdf) and output the filled PDF forms to my workflow directory. I attempted data = Alteryx.read("#1") and filepath = data["PDFPath"], but no luck. :( 

I also have these in a formula tool (I attempted making this into an analytic app with a file browse and action tool, but this also did not work). Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thank you! :)

Related code blocks currently hard coded that I would like to make dynamic:

perhaps try managing the filepaths as a separate input independent from your data?

Hi Matthew,

I've tested that but could be doing something wrong. Can you post a workflow where this works? Thank you.
