Hi,as we've installed a new version of Alteryx, we would like to keep the same structure and variables in terms of macros paths/path names and odbc connections.Is there any file in the previous installation which keeps these intact? Thank you,
@jcardoso
The macro folder setting is stored under
%PROGRAMDATA%\Alteryx\DataProducts\AddOnData\Macros\User_xxxx.ini
This is a text file and mine looks like the below
[Settings] DefaultFolder=Macros Path=C:\Macros MinimumAlteryxVersion=2019.2
The ODBC entries are defined on Windows side and are stored within your registry. The registry can be exported from your old system and imported into your new system - see here for more details.
Installing a new version of Alteryx should keep these intact. Are you saying that after updating Alteryx your ODBC connections and path to your macro folder from the User Settings disappeared?
@MichalM
no, this is a new installation with a different version in another hard drive.
Wondering if somehow there's a way to keep them intact.
Regards,
