Workflow Automation

Is there a way to automate workflows to run while you are out of office and laptop is off? 

I have a workflow connected to SQL Server and I would like Alteryx to write out an excel file to local drive when I am not in the office.

 

I saw this documentation: Schedule Workflows | Alteryx Help but it says the computer cannot be off or asleep

Alteryx Server has scheduling and it would run workflows even if your laptop is off!

Is Desktop Automation (Scheduler) even still around?

I think technically yes: Schedule Workflows | Alteryx Help

Ask around at Aimpoint and see if anyone has sold one in the last 18 months... That's just documentation... I don't think it's been a product for sale for a year plus...

I agree it's no longer sold (which is why I suggested Server), but my understanding is that it's still around as some people are grandfathered in (which is also why documentation is still around)
