I'm setting up a workflow that will essentially allow users to upload an excel file via prompt on server and then push data into our planning system. One thing I can see being a problem is if two users run this workflow at the same time. Does anyone know if Server will "queue" the requests and run them one after another? Or am I likely to run into a deadlock error.
An additional note, the users would be uploading different files (with different names).
Do you have multiple worker nodes? Are they both accessing the same file in a network share drive? If you have multiple workers - and the file is uploaded by the user at run time - there should not be a deadlock issue - unless your planning system has an issue handling multiple requests.
There should be no issue with Alteryx server running the same workflow at the same time. We do it all the time.
Hi @cbickert ,
Ideally, you wont face any issue in triggering the same workflow by multiple users unless all the files are pointing out to the same input/output file. If this is the case probably you could see that file is locked by another process error occasionally.
