Hi Team,

I would appreciate your help how to input more .xlsx files where the name of worksheet is different. The structure of the data included in all the files is same. I have more than 100 files.

Example how the files look like:

There is an article in the Alteryx Designer Knowledge Base for this topic.

Basically we can use dynamic input or Directory tool as a start.
