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

In SQL, obtaining partial sums in a grouped aggregation is as simple as adding "WITH ROLLUP" to the GROUP BY clause.
Could we get a "WITH ROLLUP" checkbox in the Summary Tool's confg panel in order to produce partial sums?
(This was initiated as a question here.)
Here is an example of without rollup vs. with rollup, in SSMS:
(Replacing "NULL" with the phrase "(any)" or some such, and we have a very useful set of partial sums.
I'm curently creating an app using interface tools to control multiple worklflows. It would be nice if I didnt have to physically drag the interface tool to the recceiving node. For example, right now I can click on the Left node of a join tool and it gives me the option to make connections to that tool or out of that tool wireless. It would be nice if I could right click and have an option to select from a list of interface tool incoming connections.
Need to allow Aliases to work with the Google Sheets Input / Output tools, so that I can input API keys in one place to service multiple tools. I know I can do this via Macros, but I also know it's best practice to avoid nesting macros.
We are enjoying the new functionality of pointing to a .zip file in the input data tool and reading in .csv files without having to manually unzip the file. We process a lot of SQlite files so having that as an option would be great. We also have several clients that supply .zip flat fixed lenght files with 100+ fields that we have mapped and having the functionality to use the Flat File Layout tool and Import the mapping file that has already been completed would be very helpful also. The current workaround is to read in as a csv with \0 as the delimiter but we then have to substring to parse each field and rename.
I find that when I'm using Alteryx, I'm constantly renaming the tool connectors. Here's my logic, most of the time:
I have something like a Join and 3 browses.
MY VISION:
Have a setting where I could select the following options:
THE GUTS/REQUEST:
If I rename a tool, and "Automatically annotate based on tool rename" is enacted, it will insert that renaming at the top of the annotation field. If there is already data in that field, it will be shifted down. If I rename a tool and "Automatically rename incoming connector..." is on, then the connection coming into it gets [name string]+' connection' put into its name field. I included a picture of the end game of my request.
Thanks for your ear!
It would be nice if when Alteryx crashes there is an autosave capability that when you re-open Alteryx it shows you the list of workflows that were autosaved and give you the immediate option to select which ones you want to save. SImilar to what Excel does.
I know about the current autosave feature, but I would still like to have it pop up or the option to have it pop up for me to select which to keep and which to discard.
As I'm sure many users do, we schedule our workflows to run during non-business hours -- overnight and over the weekend. Our primary datasource (input tool) is a remotely hosted database that our organization doesn't maintain (and hence cannot monitor the status of). If the database were to timeout or if our query were to overload it's resources, our scheduled Alteryx workflow would (attempt to) continue to run for an unknown amout of time. We would like the ability to cancel a scheduled workflow if it has been running for a certain amount of time in order to prevent this.
I was trying to check the correctness of multiple URLs with the help of download tool connected to parsing tool that way I check the download status and filter the records to good and bad based on the HTTP status codes. To my suprise it allows 2 errors at the maximum ans stops checking next records which is not at all useful for me. I wondered if someone can help me. As @JordanB say it is the default behavior of the tool and can't be handled as of now. Hope you guys have the error handling feature in your next release.
When testing I often need to check single (or a handful of numbers) throughout the workflow. I have to click on each browse to check the numbers. A tool that rendered the output of multiple fields throughout the workflow would allow me to check if I was dropping any rows or miscalculating at a glance.
For instance if at the beginning of a workflow the row count was 15,951 and the cohort size was 328. Also the sum of profit for the cohort was £1,934,402 and the count of sales was 1,584. Remember those? Not if you have to click on the browse tool multiple times all the way through a large workflow to make sure you keep these figures intact. Copying out into excel or popping out the data from browse are the only options, each fiddly when trying to alter things quickly.
A resizable output window such as the explorer window would uber-useful.
Thanks
Running into an issue when typing from keyboard to make a selection in some dropdown lists found in tool configurations. I've replicated it in the Join, Join Multiple, and Filter tools. (Sort tool worked as expected.) Running version 10.6.
This small mis-step can have SIGNIFICANT impact if a developer assumes their join field selection was set correctly, but in fact it changed without them noticing and is resulting in incorrect joins.
See attached video for quick walkthrough.
Please give the ability to use formulas when using the "Manually set values" option in the Drop down tool.
Screenshot below shows an example:
When users who have no idea what the Field API Name is try to pull data from Salesforce it can be problematic. A simple solution would be to add the Field Label to the Query Window to allow users to pick the fields based on API NAME or FIELD LABEL.
When pulling data from Oracle and pushing to Salesforce, there are many times where we have an ID field in Oracle and a field containing this ID in Salesforce in what is called an external ID field. Allowing us to match against those external ID fields would save us a lot of time and prevent us from having to do a query on the entire object in Salesforce to pull out the ID of the records we need.
It would be handy if it were possible to order (i.e. right-click to drag, as in the Select Tool) ALL constants created by the user, including Question constants etc.
I'm not doing a report but extracting data from a report 30 times to assign where the data goes.
It would be nice if in the "Output Data" tool if there was a check box to remove all field names so there is only data
Thanks!
Improve the productivity of creating a canvas workflow by bringing up the 'Search All Tools' when I click on the canvas or create connections. Currently, you must either search on the top toolbar then drag the tool down or right click in the canvas and navigate the menu. It would be great to have a similiar functionality of the 'Search All Tools' box anywhere I click on the canvas to quickly add new tools to the workflow by typing rather than dragging from the toolbar.
Case 1: When I create a connection from a current tool by clicking on the output and dragging to an open are, rbing up the 'search all tools' bar where I click and allow me to search the tools on the canvas. Once I select enter, the tool selected will be brought into the canvas.
Case 2: when I click on an empty space in the canvas, bring up the 'search all tools' bar where I click and insert the selected tool into the canvas.
Currently numeric values displayed in the browse window are left justified and the number of digits showing to the right of the decimal point cannot be controlled.
The current limitations on display formats make it more challenging to scan output values.
In Excel, by comparison, users can control output to be displayed so that the following would be automatic:
For a business user having data in this conventional format is easier to consume. I was able to achieve the above with this formula:
PadLeft(ToString([Sum_Sales],2,1),20," ")
BUT - should this extra step be necessary?
This same comment applies to data formats. More control over display formats in browse would be welcome.
Issue: Even though the Send Email event is configured for the After Run Without Errors setting in the Workflow Configuration it still sends an email when the execution of workflow is cancelled. I think only the Before Run event should be allowed to trigger in this case.

I know for - the most part - the Alteryx core data bundle is the only one part of allocate. It would be great if you could open up allocate to the user so we can add our own third party data sources. Just tell us what the requirements are to make our datasets ready for allocate and then we can load it ourselves. Then we can use the allocate workspace to query data in a similar way.
for example:
Geography(DMA,*)
Variable(CYADULT18P,CYADULT18P,False)
There is no way to search the S3 object list for a specific object which can make it impossible to find an object in a list of >1000. It would be great if there was some way of searching the object names similar to the SalesForce Input Connecter (10.5) which allows a user to start typing the name of a table to find it.
