I have built a workflow, that I cannot share, that contains a batch macro. I packaged the workflow and sent to a colleague. When they run it, they get an error and it's because the files the macro should be aggregating are not being pulled in.
The macro is fed by a directory tool and the source files are coming from subdirectories. When they run it, the macro is simply duplicating the file used inside the macro for the number of files being pulled from the subdirectory. For example there are 12 files that should be aggregated, it is replicating the template file 12 times.
It works fine on my computer but not for them. They have all of the files and folders/subfolders set up correctly. Is it the way I am packaging the workflow?

Hi @Cbennett022,
When you go to Export the workflow, do the referenced files show up as assets? If so, Alteryx will package the file as part of the package that you send...so the other user opens the workflow and it referenced the "packaged" version of the file.
If you un-check that box before Exporting, when the other user opens it, it will try to reference the drive....as long as everything is the same, it should work.
