Output Data in Unsupported Formats

Would like to check if there was a way to output data via the Render tool to file extensions that are not supported by Alteryx (eg. txt)?

Use FLAT format for txt. You can also use csv with \0 as delimiter.

Hi Mark, 

 

Thanks for your solution, however I'm thinking of saving it as another non conventional extension specific for other use. It's basically a text file but saved as a extension (example: text.efg) supported for a specific app. Is there a way to do so? 

 

With thanks.

Hi @NgYingXue 

 

In your output config, just put whatever extension you'd like on the file. It will get saved in the format you specify with the extension that you want
