You need to have Alteryx Server or Scheduler to have this automated working process, and they require seperated licenses other than Designer.

If you are ok with pushing Run button every morning, we can do something about it.

Hey @mehbpar,

Depending on the schema of the datasets you are working with (I am assuming they are going to be the same) I can suggest having a look at the following community article: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Knowledge-Base/The-Ultimate-Input-Data-Flowchart/t...

I also echo @Qiu's comment above from a true automation front.
