Submission GuidelinesHello,
After used the new "Image Recognition Tool" a few days, I think you could improve it :
> by adding the dimensional constraints in front of each of the pre-trained models,
> by adding a true tool to divide the training data correctly (in order to have an equivalent number of images for each of the labels)
> at least, allow the tool to use black & white images (I wanted to test it on the MNIST, but the tool tells me that it necessarily needs RGB images) ?
Question : do you in the future allow the user to choose between CPU or GPU usage ?
In any case, thank you again for this new tool, it is certainly perfectible, but very simple to use, and I sincerely think that it will allow a greater number of people to understand the many use cases made possible thanks to image recognition.
Thank you again

Hello, I believe this feature will be useful for many people.
The idea is to select multiple instances of the same tool and the configuration that we set will be applied to all the selected tools. Furthermore, it will be useful to be an easy way to select all instances of the same tool across a workflow with a shortcut in order to edit them more easily.
I am suggesting an addition to the Auto Field Tool. Create an option that allows only auto sizing of the fields and does not change the field type. A check box that says Auto Size Only. The tool would recognize any fields that can be resized based on their incoming data field type and will not change the data type. The resizing function is very helpful to maximize workflow performance, but I currently do not use it much because it guesses wrong on the data types. This causes problems also when data inputs change. Whereas setting to auto size only, it can streamline the data but let the user be confident the data types would not change.
Thank You
As of version 2023.1 once a workflow is locked, it cannot be unlocked. If Alteryx can unlock it, can it be made into a user option?
My idea has two parts. See the images for examples.
1. Add an option on the lock screen so the user can get an unlock passkey.
Passkey is either generated by Alteryx or set by user
2. Change the behavior when trying to open a locked file by giving the user an option to enter the unlock passkey.
Same behavior if there is no passkey
Dialog box with passkey input and cancel button if a passkey exists
This would be useful as a way to revise or edit a workflow or update the expiration date on the existing workflow without having to reload or resave a new file.
After closing the Table or Query option on an Input Data tool, the table layout in the Visual Query Builder view gets reset to stacking the tables/views on top of each other. It would be great if the layout stayed the way I left it the last time I closed it.

Currently
Using File Browse on Excel files first of all is inconsistent between running the Analytical App in the Designer and in the Gallery:
Depending on the use case, both behaviours can be the right one:
Thus, my idea is as follows:
This is a general request for uniform methods of connecting to data sources. The management of data connections is currently varied, and configurations/updates are completely different across connections.
Enhancement request for the option to Encrypt ODBC credentials instead of just hashing them
Why we don't add the search feature in the Multi-row formula same as the formula tool?
I have been very excited about Dark Mode. Its arrival in 2023.1, whilst only in Beta and with plenty of work to do, means it's party time at my house.
It made me think we need a switch on the main Alteryx page to make it easy to flip between light and dark modes.
it would be beneficial to add the same action available in the message result window to be added in the brows tool for the distinct value.
like the copy options.
Hi!
Under User Settings, if you could add options to change what Alteryx shows in the tool configuration window. Currently, it shows Field, Type, Size, Rename, Description. I've been using Alteryx for almost 20 years, I've never used the Description field for anything. If Alteryx provided the option to remove it from the view for users who never use it, then the Rename field would no longer get truncated, which is a field I think is more widely utilized.
When a macro that is not "installed" is inserted to a workflow (from a folder), its dependency can also be modified (including the macro inputs, if there are any) from the Workflow Dependencies settings.
I would like to suggest that the macro tools and the relevant files have separate buttons for dependency configurations.
One use case for this would be when a user saves a workflow in a specific location after configuring the paths as All Relative and moving the workflow to an entirely different folder afterwards, making it difficult to find the original location of the macro used in the workflow, also introducing the chance of breaking the workflow when opened and saved with the undefined (question mark sign) macro tool if the underlying workflow XML is not examined by a text editor.
Currently, Dynamic Select and Multi-Field Formula tools both have the option to select fields by type (like Numeric, String).
It is however not currently possible to select which fields will be selected by using a formula in the Multi-Field Formula tool.
Due to having to use at least two tools to select which fields I need and apply formula (optionally changing the data type),
- I first Dynamic Select the fields by the suffixes I have in the field name which specify the data type (like Name_String, Spends_Double)
- I then apply the Multi-Field Formula (at least trim the whitespaces from the fields due to working with CSV files containing fixed whitespace in fields) and change the data type if necessary,
- Finally, I Join Multiple the fields back using the RecordID field I previously added as a key.
This also changes the order of the data and there might be some scenarios where the user does not want the field order changed.
By embedding the Dynamic Select via Formula option to the Multi-Field Formula tool, it will become possible to select which fields will be subject to formula and (optionally) data type change in one tool as opposed to having to use many tools.
Hi Team,
With Sharepoint Tool 2.3.0 , We are unable to connect Sharepoint Lists with service Principal Authentication as it requires SharePoint - Application permission - Sites.Read.All and Sites.ReadWrite.All in Microsoft Azure App. However, as those permissions will gets access to all sites in respective Organization community, it is impossible for any company to provide as it leaks data security. Kindly provide any alternative or change in permsiions for Sharepoint Connectivity with thumbprint in Alteryx.
Regerence Case with Alteryx Support : Case #00619824

The Table tool does not allow renaming a field so that it breaks at a specific point.
Fields like "H.S. Dropouts Non-Hispanic" and "H.S. Dropouts Whites" need a forced break after Dropouts.
Now we get random breaks like
H.S. Dropouts
Non-Hispanic
H.S. Dropouts White
The Rename Field function in the Basic Table tool would be a great place to allow forced breaks.
Thanks!
Alteryx can add more advanced machine learning capabilities, such as deep learning and neural networks, to its existing set of predictive modeling tools. This will allow users to perform more complex and accurate analyses, and enable them to tackle more sophisticated machine learning problems. For example, Alteryx can add support for deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow and Keras, which will allow users to use pre-trained models or create their own models for image and natural language processing.
Alteryx can improve the data connectivity options by adding more built-in connectors to various data sources such as big data platforms, cloud-based services, and IoT devices. This will enable users to easily access and import data from a wider range of sources, without the need for complex coding or manual data preparation. For example, Alteryx can add connectors to popular big data platforms like Hadoop and Spark, or cloud-based services like AWS and Azure, which will allow users to easily import data from these platforms into Alteryx for analysis.
In Alteryx Designer I like to use Containers with very specific color, transparency and border settings something I've asked can be built into defaults somehow in another Product suggestion which I cannot find. What's very useful to me is defining processes into the Tool categories, i.e. ingestion = In/Out = Green, Preparation tools = Prep Category = Blue, this standardised across all workflows is good practice when managing an estate of workflows.
In Tableau when editing 'Colors' there is a box you can enter the #0065a8 code for a color you wish to use, perhaps from Brand guidelines or in my case the same # as the Tool Category Colors themselves. I have to go into Tableau, pick screen color, create a custom colour then regenerate on Alteryx side.
Can we add "pick a screen color' and / or 'HTML: #0065a8' like you can do in Tableau?
Overview might be enhanced for example by adding to the side of the panel displaying a list of tools in the highlighted area or summarize how many tools are in the selected area.
Instead of 'Show Dprecated Tools' functionality more helpful and intuitive would be always display deprecated tools inside new tool category.
