Cached file via File Browse tool in Alteryx Gallery

Hi,

 

I have an application in Alteryx gallery, which process a file (the file is chosen via  File Browse tool) and if the file has mistakes I need to rerun manually corrected file not changing the name of the file. Alteryx cashes the file and when I try to rerun the modified file,  it takes the cached file ( which is not corrected  after the first run). Is there any solution to that? 

 

Thank you in advance!

Hi @OksanaBezpyata,

 

did you really reupload the file or did you use the option from the recently used files?

Hi @grossal 

 

Thank you for a prompt response. Yes, I have reuploaded the file, but the application showed the errors from the first not edited file. If I change the name of the file after manually editing it, then I will see the needed result after processing manually edited file.

 

Best regards,

Oksana

I think I know why this appears. I have just tested it with a very minimal workflow.

 

If the filesize is basically (or exactly) the same and the filename also agrees, Alteryx chooses the cached file.

 

Could you report this to support@alteryx.com or do you want me to do it?

I will report to support and will keep you updated.

 

Thanks,
