We are starting to set up an Alteryx environment on Azure and we want to automate installation and configuration as much as possible. In other words we want to be able to stand up and shut down servers automatically including all the components like drivers, macro locations, data sets etc.
We are aiming to achieve this by:
- provisioning servers via ARM template
- install and configure Alteryx Server via a deployment script
We are however hitting some snags. These are mainly related to:
- data connections and associated passwords
- scheduling token key - how to automatically retrieve / insert
- macro locations stored in Alteryx Designer on the server
Does anyone here have any experience with this and if so could you please give some general advice or PM me if you prefer.
Thanks!
