It's a format proprietary to Alteryx called Composer with a file extension of .PCXML. In the past I've described it as "HTML content wrapped in XML for use by Alteryx", but that's not exactly accurate. 

 

Is there something we can help you with?

Do we have whitebook on this language?

 

can we edit the layout by change something in the coding like formatting html page via any tool if possible.

There is some opportunity to edit the text in the layout/Composer PCXML fields to achieve a different output. Here's an example from last week where I add line breaks where they are normally not supported.
