Azure Data Lake Store Connector

Our company is implementing an Azure Data Lake and we have no way of connecting to it efficiently with Alteryx.  We would like to push data into the Azure Data Lake store and also pull it out with the connector.  Currently, there is not an out-of-the-box solution in Alteryx and it requires a lot of effort to push data to Azure.

I second this.  The Azure data lake is going to be a big part of Analytics data storage in the future and we need an efficient way to read/write data to this In Alteryx.  Have tried the HDFS connector but cant get anything to work.  Please could you confirm if this is actually on the roadmap?

Hi All,

 

Based on popular demand, we've added this to our roadmap. In the meantime, please continue to star if you'd like to see this.

 

Best,

We're also implementing an Azure Data Lake Store and a built-in connector that could read/write would be a huge enhancement for Alteryx. Any updates on when in Q2 this will be released?

Did the ADLS connector make it into the 2018.2 release as i can't seem to find it or am i missing something obvious?  

 

Thanks

Hi RobWalker,

 

Here is the link to the help document.

 

The download for the various tools can been found here

 

Note: Installing this connector will update pip if you have that installed.

 

Thanks,
