Opening Files: Put Download folder in quick access task bar

Hello,

 

I do not want to go to quick access and then to the downloads folder. Mostly we search on the community and download workflows as well as companying files. to reopen the files which are placed in the downloads folder i have to go there. 

to speed this up, please put a downloads folder quick link to the left bar:

hi @Robinpi, that makes a lot of sense. Our product team is constantly striving to make our products (and their UX!) better, and the user feedback we received is critical in that mission. Make sure to also check out other users’ ideas, and "Like" the ones you'd like to see in the product.

thank you,

 

I think it would also be comfortable to be able to paste pathlinks from the clipboard to this field here:

Sometimes I want to select a file in a specific folder without dragging and dropping it since for draggin and droping I have to open the folder with the file and put the folder next to the alteryx interface and then drop it. This is somehow time consuming if the folder is not already open and not on the same desktop as the alteryx app/canvas.

 

Best regards
