SAVE (With Default)

@NicoleJ recently asked a question about what default save options that we might want to apply to when we save to SERVER.  I'll answer for both SERVER and to DESIGNER here as ideas.

 

SERVER:  When I save a workflow to the server, I'd like to have Alteryx automagically do the following:

 

  1.  Respect my CANCEL RUNNING WORKFLOW on ERROR default setting.
  2. Respect my SHOW MACRO MESSAGES default setting.
  3. Respect my Enable Performace Profiling default setting (OFF should be recommended).
  4. Respect my AMP Engine Compatibility Mode setting (if AMP is turned on).
  5. Modify any non-relative path dependencies to UNC.
  6. Respect my DISABLE All TOOLS that WRITE Output default setting.
  7. USE GLOBAL Default for Temporary Files

 

If any settings or rules (e.g. dependencies) don't match default, please WARN me or give option to reset automagically.

 

For DESIGNER saves, please do the same as SERVER plus:

  1.  Respect my DISABLE ALL BROWSE TOOLS setting.

If anyone wants to chime in with more settings, please do so.

 

Cheers,

 

Mark

automagically?! Now that's what I'm talking about. 

 

Great idea!

I agree @MarqueeCrew  - there are several different params that we want to ensure that we control & default for every workflow saved to the server - and the ones that we check for are 

  • Disable all browse tools
  • Control of the "AMP Engine" setting
  • The workflow memory settings
