Alteryx workflows imported

we have 100 workflows in each server.We have total 16 server 

 

No of server =16

Total 1600 workflows

 

Is it possible can we import 100 workflows in each cluster and produce the output as pdf. So that we can see how the workflows designed  or we need to do see each workflow manually and write documents by our own.

 

Kindly help me on this. As this is little bit urgent?

If you want to get a picture of each workflow, then yes you will have to perform manually.  While this will take time to do, imagine if the source was SQL or code and you had to create a flowchart for each workflow.  I do wonder about the PDF picture requirement.  If each workflow contains macros, you'd have to have pictures of that logic too. 

 

Workflow standards (if created) could be checked by peer review.  It would be quick to review the sign-off's of the workflows instead of the task of review of each of the 1600 PDFs.  I honestly couldn't imagine reviewing that quantity of PDF workflows.  While the pdf would be manual, you could retrieve the workflows and review them with Alteryx to inspect for higher risk tools.  Tools like the Run Command and Email could be flagged to check to see what they are doing (e.g. mailing out sensitive data).

 

In short, I think that you'll need to start manually creating your picture PDF files.
