we are using Alteryx desktop version and looking to save Read-Only output file (csv). Is it possible to generate read-only file without any requriment for password etc:
Hi @Harishaha
Whenever you try to output via output tool in csv format it will by default will generate the output without password only.
Hope this helps!!!!
Many thanks

Hello Shanker, many thanks but the output should be read-only file contrary to read/write able.
Hi @Harishaha
To answer your specific question, if it is read only file, then alteryx will not be able to write the output.
You need to copy the output file in another location and make that copy of .csv file as read only.
Many thanks

Hi @Harishaha
Yes it's possible using the Run Command tool and some scripting. There is a community post here with a workflow you can download that shows an example of this - https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/Output-CSV-file-as-Read-Only/td-p/6110...
I've just downloaded and tested it, and it works!
