Hi I have a workflow that I have deployed to the server. The workflow is supposed to output 13 files and overwrite the existing files everytime it runs. When I run it from the designer it overwrites, however when run from server it gives me the option to download all 13 files. How can I fix my workflow to directly overwrite the existing files? See below screenshots of how the inputs and outputs have been set up. Thank you!

Input (Interface tools)
Hey @sg081994 ,
Before saving the workflow onto the server, select the option to Manage workflow assets.
When the output`s box is checked, it means the output will be presented to the user to be downloaded, By unchecking the box, your outputs now will be saved to the desired folder. Keep in mind that your server must have access to the folder, which probably means you will have to use a shared folder and work with UNC paths.
If you are not familiar with UNC paths, take a look at the bottom of this tutorial: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Desktop-Knowledge-Base/File-Paths-and-Alteryx/ta-p...

Hi @fmvizcaino Thanks so much for the detailed solution. I tried that and got the error below even though I am signed in. Any ideas what I am missing?
Hey @sg081994 ,
This seems like something related to the credentials. Are you using credentials when publishing workflows to the gallery?
This tutorial can give you more insights about the issue.
