Hello, I am trying to build an alteryx model building out reconciliations that has many containers (each container is a different reconciliation that is slightly different). I built the reconciliation and it is working, but I am trying to utilize the interface tools to
1) Enable and Disable Containers
2) Change Input/Output files
I currently have it set up so the there is one checkbox tool and action tool per reconciliation on the outside of the container to enable/disable (with the "collapse group when deselected" checked). Each container has one output file, and I have the file browse/action interface tools on the outside of the container to prevent the "interface tools in a disabled container" error from populating.
In the interface designer, I have the outputs embedded into the check boxes, so when the workflow is run as an app, the user can only fill out the output file if the container is enabled. However, if a container is not checked, I am running into an error that the "File name is empty". The question I am struggling with is if there is a way to enable & disable containers while having the user pick the output/input files via the interface tools, but not have it be mandatory if the container is disabled.
Let me know if you need any more details, thank you so much for the help!

Sorry, I may have miscommunicated my issue. Whether or not the container is enabled, the issue with the action box populates saying the file name is empty

Even when the container is disabled, the same issue arises
