[urgent] Dynamic Rename based on the condition

IDnullPRODUCTnull
nullnullnulldata
nullnullnullnull

 

 

I'd like to rename the column name with the value based on certain conditions in some cases below:

 

F1: to get data of the first row then concat with the current field name.

F2. don't change anything because the value of the first row = null. (really need help for this case)

F3: to get the first row value then replace the current field name

F4: to get first value of any rows of the column

 

Can alteryx 2020 help me in one of the scenarios above?

 

Thanks! 

 

Output expected:

 

F1_IDF2PRODUCTdata
 null

Hi hungdm,

 

You may need to edit the IF statement in the formula to get exactly what you need, but the structure of the solution might look like the attached.

 

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure I understand your rationale for why the first column should keep the F1 portion. There is not a difference that I can see between F1 and F3. 

 

The attached workflow takes the first filled in value for each column and uses it as the field name. This could be a good starting place for you.
