Temporary Storage Iterative Macro

Jishnu_K

Hi AlteryxMates,

I was building a workflow and my temporary storage gets completely filled.

Now I am planning to run the data as batches using a batch macro.

How does the batch macro consume temp storage space? Will it remove cache(temp memory) used by the previous iteration while running ?

Any thoughts

(## Similar scenarios can be solved in python-> del and gc.collect() are the two different methods to delete the memory in python. The clear memory method is helpful to prevent the overflow of memory. )

Thanks

Hi @Jishnu_K ,

 

can you please provide some more information?

Without seeing what you're doing it's going to be difficult to ascertain the problem.

 

Are you outputting into a temp location at the end of each iteration? Are you outputting at all?

 

Thanks,

 

M.

I am planning to run data as batches. Outputs are generated inside the batch macro during each iteration. 

 

So the temp storage space consumed for first batch/iteration will be removed or will remain there , when the second batch executes through the batch macro?
