This is especially helpful for organization who have heavy usage of Hadoop Platform where permissions are locked down and cannot see columns and or tables in the schema.  The workflow fails when Alteryx reads something that is never going to access.

Thank you for your feedback!

 

I've moved your idea over to the Designer idea board as it seems to be about data connection inside of a workflow, however let me know if that's incorrect. 

 

Be sure to like and check out our Submission Guidelines too, as they go over the process behind the boards in a bit greater detail.
