Hello,
I'm building a chained app (the attached mock-up is step 2, where the breakdown is occurring).
When I run as an analytic app in the designer, my list box consists of column headers. I need it to be the user IDs.
I tried transposing it, but that doesn't seem to work for what I need the end result to be.
I THINK the action tool and the filter are set up correctly, but since the available fields aren't options, the filter doesn't yield any positive results.
Thanks in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @MCDR929
Since you already have a chained app, you're half way there. Just get the first app to write out an .yxdb file that the second one reads from. The .yxdb needs to be in a specific format with a series of unique name value pairs.
Then change the config of your list box to read the values from there
See attached

Thanks for the response, Dan. I wasn't able to open your workflow; looks like you have a newer version than I do (I'll check to see if my company has made the update available).
I have my actual workflow set up to feed off a temp file from the first step in the chain. However, when I try to run this as an analytic app, I get this error message when moving from step 1 to step 2:
So maybe that's where my issue is.
I'm working off apps my boss made a while back, so maybe I'm creating the temp file incorrectly?
I have the data output in step one set to: %temp%..\Scarlet DC.yxdb
Then, the input in step two is: %temp%..\Scarlet DC.yxdb
Thoughts? Thank you again.
Hi @MCDR929
The workflow is just an xml file. If you open it with notepad you should be able to change the version(2nd line) to match yours
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<AlteryxDocument yxmdVer="2019.1">
<Nodes>
<Node ToolID="1">
<GuiSettings Plugin="AlteryxGuiToolkit.Questions.Tab.Tab">
<Position x="0" y="0" width="59" height="59" />
</GuiSettings>
<Properties>
<Configuration />
As far as the file path goes, it looks it should work.
