Hi All,
I am unable to add a new Microsoft SQL connection through
Options > Advanced options > Manage Data Connections > Add Connection
i am using Alteryx 2021.
when I click Add connection, pop up window where I can mention database name is not appearing.
Please help
@Rakesh_Jasuja are you using the Admin installation or the Non-Admin installation?
Hi @patrick_mcauliffe ,
Thanks for the reply, it is non Admin installation, however there is no installation required.
all I am doing is that - trying to add SQL server connection for which I already have access.
usually when you try to add any new connection, a new pop up appears where you have to enter DB name /server name.
that pop up is not showing when I click add connection.
Hope this helps.
Hi @Rakesh_Jasuja , please try closing Alteryx and then reopen with Run As Administrator. Sometimes Alteryx acts weird and closing and restarting fixes it. Let me know if this works.
Hi @drew9 ,
Thanks for your response, however I don't have Admin access on my company provided Laptop, I will take IT team's help to see if this can be fixed, will let you know the results.
@Rakesh_Jasuja it sounds like your IT security department is blocking something (like a script that renders the button). Let us know what you hear from them.
