Directory Tool - Alteryx Designer 2019.3

[bsolove]

I just upgraded to Alteryx Designer 2019.3.  Previously there was an option on the left side of the configuration window for the Directory tool to attach files so that when a workflow was packaged and sent to someone else, the files would be in a folder when the next user unpackaged the workflow.  Does anyone know the replacement for that functionality?

I tried packaging the workflow and opening it again and the files were missing/received errors.  Thanks in advance!

Hi @bsolove !

I don't if I understand right, but you can attach files to your workflow doing this steps:

1. Select Option;

2.Select Edit User Settings;

3. In advanced tab, you need to check "display asset management in properties windows" and save;

4.Now will appear that box icon in the tool configuration where you can add files to go with your workflow.

Let me know if that helped you 🙂

This functionality still exists, you just need to export the workflow.

In Designer, go to Options > Export Workflow. Ensure each of the input files is checked. This will create a .yxzp file. When someone goes to open the file, it will ask to import the file and will create the folders containing the inputs.

Let me know if this helps!
