Question for importing multiple tabs in one Excel

Hi,

 

I have 69 tabs in one excel and they are in the same format. I used Input tool and choose to import list of sheet names. And then I used dynamic input tool and also chose sheet names. However, after I ran the workflow, it showed No data available. Does anyone know how to fix it?

 

Thank you!

Its then strange, since I ran a test and its just working.

I do notice that there is a message saying "ended by downstream tool"?

Do you have any tools placed after the Dynamic input?

Yes... It is very wired. I only have input and dynamic tool... I did not have anything after.

I found this post that might help.

Please try to add a Browse Tool after the Dynamic Tool?

@gongyunqian622 
The error indicates that your data format (schema) is different among tabs, so your statement "they are in the same format. " may not be valid.

If that is the case, you might want to use this macro I downloaded from here.

I cannot open the file you gave me. It said I am not using the most updated version of alteryx. I am using 2019.3.1 version
