FBProphet in Python Tool

Has anyone gotten the fbprophet package to work in the Alteryx Python Tool?

 

I tried using Alteryx.installPackages("fbprophet"), but the designer just starts using all CPU for a few minutes, and then I get no response or error code, and then the package is still not available.

Hi @ahal,

 

Thank you for posting!

 

Are you able to install PyStan, fbprophet main dependency ?

 

Note that there are known issues with Windows 10 / Python 3.6.0: https://github.com/facebook/prophet/issues/2

 

Kind regards,

Hi @ahal ,

 

Recently, we have developed a Prophet Tool in R for more drag & drop features. See if it's helpful to you:
