Image Recognition Tools

Status: Under Review Submitted 09-08-2021 Submitted by 09-08-2021

Hello,

 

  After used the new "Image Recognition Tool" a few days, I think you could improve it : 

  > by adding the dimensional constraints in front of each of the pre-trained models,

  > by adding a true tool to divide the training data correctly (in order to have an equivalent number of images for each of the labels)

  > at least, allow the tool to use black & white images (I wanted to test it on the MNIST, but the tool tells me that it necessarily needs RGB images) ?

 

  Question : do you in the future allow the user to choose between CPU or GPU usage ?

 

  In any case, thank you again for this new tool, it is certainly perfectible, but very simple to use, and I sincerely think that it will allow a greater number of people to understand the many use cases made possible thanks to image recognition.

 

  Thank you again

Text input tool - text format and size changed to v_string/v_wstring and max size

Hi Alteryx community,

 

It would be really nice to have v_string/v_wstring and max character size as a standard for text columns.

it is countless how many times I found that the error was related to a string truncation due to string size limit from the text input.

 

Thumbs-up those who lost their minds after discovering that the error was that! 😄

Add Parquet data format as input & output

Please add Parquet data format (https://parquet.apache.org/) as read-write option for Alteryx.

 

Apache Parquet is a columnar storage format available to any project in the Hadoop ecosystem, regardless of the choice of data processing framework, data model or programming language.

 

Thank you.

 

Regards,

Cristian.

Provide a PINNED function for frequently used files

Status: Accepted Submitted on ‎02-24-2018 01:45 PM Submitted by on ‎02-24-2018 01:45 PM

Microsoft Office provides a facility in all its apps to make the loading of frequently used files a breeze. In the FILE OPEN function the user can "PIN" a previously opened file so that it is always easy to find and load.  This would make it easier to manage and retrieve Designer files. 

 

This is what PINNING looks like in Excel

Support for Azure Active Directory (AAD) authentication for various Azure Services

Status: Accepted Submitted on ‎03-25-2019 02:31 PM Submitted by on ‎03-25-2019 02:31 PM

With more and more enterprises moving to cloud infrastructures and Azure being one of the most used one, there should be support for its authentication service Azure Active Directory (AAD).

 

Currently if you are using cloud services like Azure SQL Servers the only way to connect is with SQL login, which in a corporate environment is insecure and administrative overhead to manage.

 

The only work around I found so far is creating an ODBC 17 connection that supports AAD authentication and connect to it in Alteryx.

 

Please see the post below covering that topic:

Allow Publish to Power BI Connector the ability to connect to local Power BI Server

Status: Accepted Submitted on ‎08-08-2019 02:30 PM Submitted by on ‎08-08-2019 02:30 PM

The current Power BI Connector can only be used to publish to Power BI in the cloud but not to a local Power BI server. I would like to suggest the idea to improve this connector and configure it in a similar way to the Publish to Tableau Server Connector. The connector should allow to publish to a local url. See attachment.

Allow MapInfo16 tab files to be read in Alteryx

Status: Accepted Submitted on ‎12-05-2017 05:45 AM Submitted by on ‎12-05-2017 05:45 AM

Many tab files lately (I am finding when they are created in mapinfo 16) Alteryx cannot read.  I have posted about this in other forums but wanted to bring it up on the product ideas section as well.
