Alteryx Community-

 

I am attempting to scrape and consequently parse a XML file (data source: https://data.treasury.gov/feed.svc/DailyTreasuryYieldCurveRateData?$filter=month(NEW_DATE)%20eq%204%...) into Alteryx but the download tool is giving me the "400 Bad Request" error message.

 

Any inside on how to potential overcome this issue would be greatly appreciated.

 

Here is how I would like the data to look like in designer-

Hi @felixcaspari1, I was able to take the 2nd link you provided and downloaded the treasury data into Alteryx. It has some areas of improvement, so not my best Alteryx work, but it'll get you 90% close to what you need. Should serve as a good starting point for now.

Attaching an updated version. I was able to bring in FY2020 yields which should make life easier if you are looking for historicals.

Thank you for the provided solution- this did get the job done. With the help of Alteryx I was also able to develop an alternative that works as well (please see attached). Again, thank you for the time work on this problem!
