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

The BigQuery Input Tool utilizes the TableData.List JSON API method to pull data from Google Big Query. Per Google here:
This is not a current supported functionality of the tool. You can post this on our product ideas page to see if it can be implemented in future product. For now, I would recommend pulling the data from the original table itself in BigQuery.
I need to be able query tables and views. Not sure I know how to use tableDataList JSON API.
The look of the canvas is important. Being able to toggle between viewing classic icons (as seen throughout this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJwgYYP_xlA), to the extent available, and current icons would provide users with more variety. As a secondary benefit (when toggled to show the classic icons), users would be able to differentiate between the tools that are not classic (i.e., the newer tools that don't have an older design) and the classic tools.
Thank you very much.
Hi Alteryx,
I tried importing a file into my text input tool and I ran across this error.
Why is there a limit? Can we get rid of it since we're not living in DOS anymore.
Hi,
The imputation tool allows exchange of numbers. It would be great if we are given the option to impute string values and NULL value too
I am trying to use the Dynamic Replace to selectively update records in a set of variables from survey data. That is, I do not have all potential values in the “R” input of Dynamic Replace. Instead, I have a list of values that I would like altered from their current values by respondent (RespondentID) and question # (Q#). Currently, when I run the workflow, any Q#/ResponseID combos that are not in my “R” input are replaced with blanks. However, I would like an option that maintains the original data if there is nothing to replace the data with. Without this option, there are few (I'm still working on some ways) workarounds to ensure the integrity of the data.

Recently, I posted one problem regarding on merging a column with same value using the table tool. I do have a hard time to make a solution until @HenrietteH helped on how to do it. What she showed was helped me a lot to do what I want in my module, however it would be more easier if we are going to add this feature on the table tool itself.
Thank you
A user may need to perform regression test on their workflows when there is a version upgrade of Alteryx. To save users time and effort, users can be encouraged to submit a few workflows in a secure area of the Alteryx Gallery. Prior to a version release, the Alteryx product testing team can perform a regression test of these workflows using automation. Thus when users receive an upgraded version of Aleryx it is more robust and with the added assurance that the workflows they had submitted will continue to work without errors.
The Input Data and Text Input Tools are visually distinct, so it's easy to see when a workflow is inputting live (File) or static (Text) data.
The Macro Input tool has the same appearance whether it's inputting a File or Text data, so you have to open the tool configuration to see whether it's inputting live (File) or static (Text) data. It would be great if there was a way to visually distinguish these two cases, perhaps even separating the macro tool into two tools, one for Files and one for Text.
The current Export Workflow user experience is extremely frustrating and it sometimes takes me several attempts to export the workflow with all of the correct assets. Some ideas for improving the UX:
Have a display option for "Group asset by Type" (e.g., Input, Output, Macro). I typically only package up my workflows with the embedded macros, not the Inputs or Outputs. (This is especially important during development and testing, when interim yxdb's are saved to facilitate QC and trouble-shooting.) I would like an easy way to "Check all Macros" without having to go through the list one-by-one. I may have over 100 assets; with the current UX, it's really hard to get all the right assets checked.
On the SELECT object - add a column "Value if Null". This would work like a COALESCE in SQL. For string fields, an empty string or "" would need to be an available option.
Debugging could be dramatically simplified if each canvas object had the ability to be disabled/enabled. If disabled, the workflow would still pass through the object, but the object itself would be ignored.
The find and replace tool currently does not run row by row, and finds anything in the find column, and replaces it with anything in the replace column. I was under the impression and designed my workflow to use this as a row by row find and replace, not entire columns.
A simple fix would be to allow users to group by RecordID, which should also speed up the find / replace tool for larger data sets I would imagine.
What I am going to do in the meantime is use Regex to replace the word out.
Thanks!
It would be nice if the fields which are selected for the Unique tool can be easily visible. (by way of grouping selected fields etc)
The issue is that if a few out of many fields are selected to be considered for Unique, it is hard to review/check which are the fields that have been selected in the Unique Tool configuration.
Here's an example. It is difficult to see all the fields which have been selected. (There are 7 fields selected in this example.)
I the current Output Data Tool, choosing a bulk Loader option, say for Teradata, the tool automatically requests the first column to be the primary index. That is absolutely incorrect, especially on Teradata because of how it might be configured. My Teradata Management team notifies me that the created table, whether in a temp space or not, becomes very lopsided and doesn't distribute the "amps" appropriately.
They recommend that instead of that, I should specify "NO PRIMARY INDEX" but that is not an option in the Output Tool.
The Output tool does not allow any database specific tweaks that might actually make things more efficient.
Additionally, when using the Bulk Loader, if the POST SQL uses the table created by the bulk loading, I get an error message that the data load is not yet complete.
It would be very useful if the POST SQL is executed only and only after the bulk data is actually loaded and complete, not probably just cached by Teradata or any database engine to be committed.
Furthermore, if I wanted either the POST SQL or some such way to return data or status or output, I cannot do so in the current Output Tool.
It would be very helpful if there was a way to allow that.
Many tab files lately (I am finding when they are created in mapinfo 16) Alteryx cannot read. I have posted about this in other forums but wanted to bring it up on the product ideas section as well.
All the other data types get basic filters but time doesn't get any besides a NULL check:
If i draw a line that crosses the pacific ocean, the path is split in half, and connected by a line that goes over the Atlantic..
This isn't just cosmetic.. if i intersect this object with another polygon, it will show that the two objects interact even though they should not.. The only way i can fix this is to manually divide my polyline into two objects where they cross the pacific ocean.
Please fix this.
Hello all,
EDIT : stupid me : it's an excel limitation in output, not an alteryx limitation :( Can you please delete this idea ?
I had to convert some string into dates and I get this error message (both with select tool and DateTime tool) :
ConvError: Output Data (10): Invalid date value encountered - earliest date supported is 12/31/1899 error in field: DateMatch record number: 37399
This is way too early. Just think to birthdate or geological/archeological data !
Also : other products such as Tableau supports earlier dates!
Hope to see that changed that soon.
Best regards,
Simon
Would be great if you could support Snowflake window functions within the In-DB Summarize tool
The Find/Replace Tool in the Join tools is set to "Find Any Part of Field".
However, 99% of time, I select the "Entire Field", hence would like there to be a way to have the Entire Field checked as my standard box filled in.
It would be nice if Alteryx knew which field is most likely what I will use, based on always checking that box, or for none of them to be selected, to make sure I will select the correct one.
Most of the times when I have a mistake its because of this tool and it being set to "Any Part of Field" and I missed to change it.
Would imagine most people use this tool to find an exact match?
