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

When working in the Designer, I sometimes have to undo changes. And this experience is quite often very confusing and annoying.
For every change in the workflow, you have to press undo once. However, quite often, one user interaction results in other actions such as automatic move of the donwstream tool, change of size of a tool container etc. In such cases, you have inserted a single tool but need to press undo a couple of times to get back to the original situation. It is, however, often not clear how often. In most cases, I fail using undo at the end and revert my changes by hand.
Please change undo towards undoing one user-action in one undo step.
In case there might be users who like the current behaviour, you might make this a user setting how to deal with the undo history.
One of the most frequent issues I have with my workflow is when the Join Tool reorders columns for no reason. There is an option in the configuration to have the columns revert to the incoming order. It would be nice if the workflow automatically had this set as a default, or provide a toggle option in the settings for this to happen. In many of my flows I've had to create macros to keep the integrity of the column order or remember to go into the settings of this tool and re order the columns before a workflow run.
I think we can all agree that Workflow Summary Tool is immensely powerful in summarizing large and/or complicated workflows. However, some companies have begun to bar the use of certain GenAI applications, like ChatGPT. Unfortunately this makes the use of the Workflow Summary Tool impossible. At the same time those companies are allowing the use of other forms of GenAI, like AzureAI.
In the Workflow Summary tool, it would be nice to have the capability to select which GenAI engine you want to use (ChatGPT, AzureAI, etc) so that you don't break corporate policy by using barred applications. This could simply be a dropdown in the GUI configuration for the Workflow Summary Tool with a list of the most common engines. The user would then supply their API key for that engine, and you're off to the races.
If you cancel a workflow while its writing into a file, the file creation will not be rollbacked and hence a partial file would have been created.
This is problematic when working with incremental load relying on file from the past.
Containers are a great feature. They allow us to create larger workflows in smaller canvases, and manage the flow and appearance of our work. However the design whether intentional or flawed that allows the container window to interact with the layers behind it is annoying. Connection wires should not redirect within a container because of things on the canvas behind the container. Likewise if I have a container open, I should not be able to grab a tool or container behind the open container through the container canvas. Please fix this flaw.

Currently, the "SQL editor" window only contain a box for typing text in, we could not see the schema and table on it's side as a reference, we need to jump back and force between "Visual Query Builder" and "SQL Editor" search for table and column names. If we could see the database schema and table in the SQL Editor interface, it will save us a lot of time.
Hello all,
As of today, if you have admin and non-admin version of Alteryx Designer installed on your computer, and install Business Intelligence Suite, you are able to run either version. It will not run both versions. This means whatever reason you installed admin and non-admin version, Business Intelligence Suite will run with only one Designer.
I installed my computer Alteryx Designer 22.3 non-admin and 23.1 admin versions, both Predictive Analytics. I also installed BI Suite admin version, and BI suite non-admin version. Alteryx will uninstalled admin version, and kept non-admin version of the BI Suite. So, I can use BI Suite only with non-admin version now.
I'm bringing this idea for your vote to make available for both profiles/versions within Designer.
Thanks for voting
Hi
I think its super frustrating not beeing able to search for dates, or date ranges in the result window.
Lets say I have a dataset with 2 dates, date picked up and date delivered.
Then I need to search broad in the result window, for a given date. With search in both coloumns.
Could we please have a simple specific date search, and maybe a from-to date? Like in the filter?
Or go all the way and look at excel date filter?
Kind regards
The Interactive Chart configure window cannot be resized. I'm using a single, large monitor, and this window occupies the entire monitor so that I am forced to switch between windows to see other applications. Most of the space used by the configure window is wasted white space. Please update this to allow this window to be resized.
I'm using a 32:9 monitor running at 5120x1440, and the attached screenshot shows the size of the configure window on this monitor - 4986x1286.
Hello!
I had found this quirk whilst working on a fairly large workflow, where i had multiple tools cached to keep things quick. I had moved one of the tools on the canvas to a pre-existing container, and it removed the caching on my whole workflow.
Steps to reproduce:
1) setup a super basic workflow (or any workflow):
2) Cache part of the workflow:
3) drag one of the tools (in this case the formula) into the container:
As you can see, the workflow is no longer cached and i have to re-cache it.
This would be a welcome change as that is an unexpected behaviour to me, and so I would imagine others too. A workflow no longer being cached can cost the developer a lot of time (and potential resource, if hitting a Snowflake instance, for example).
Thanks,
TheOC
All the other file types have different coloured icons and it works well to differentiate them in a directory. Its impossible to differentiate workflows and database icons currently.
It would be awesome if we could edit annotations while the workflow is running.
I love annotating all my tools, and I'm often sitting there looking at my canvas right after hitting run and thinking, "I should annotate that!" and then moving on and forgetting after it's run. I'm not sure if that's feasible or not, but I think it would be neat.
It would be easy if there is an alteryx tool or in the input tool a configuration to put an excel password and it opens the file to use it on a workflow.
Building a custom tool is nice, but the best way to show someone how to use it is to have an example. It would be great if we could package example workflows into a yxi file so our custom tools have samples to start from.
Hi,
I am not sure if it is only me, but quite often, I am getting distracted. I believe I am not the only person bombarded by the amount of notification/ping on chat etc. That is the reason why quite often, I forgot what I am doing.
Let's imagine a scenario like this. I want to use the date-time parse function. First, I look at the data. I want to figure out what the format is, and I want to start writing a formula.
I know what format it is, and I am writing a formula in a formula tool. I remember the date was the first position but what was next? I got distracted. I don't know the original formula was structured.
Wouldn't it be cool to see the results from the previous tool still when working on the new one?
My workaround is to copy-paste pics into one note when I am working on something but I am not a big fan of a workaround like this 😀
For the Image Input Tool please add:
1) A wildcard input for filename.
2) A check-box to choose sub-folders.
When Alteryx Designer detects an existing 32-bit Oracle driver on a user's machine, it displays an error message saying that it requires a 64-bit driver. If there is no driver at all installed, it will go ahead and install one.
Can we get Alteryx to simply prompt the user to install the 64-bit driver instead of the 32-bit driver present error message?
(I know they can co-exist since removing the 32-bit driver will cause Alteryx to install its own 64-bit driver after which one can re-install the 32-bit driver.)
Thanks!
