File browse for output tool not working in Alteryx server

[Bren_Spill2]

Hi All,

I have an analytic app that is using file browse for both input and output files. When I run the app in designer, I see the following and I can successfully browse for an output location.

When I put the app in the server, I see the following, and cannot browse for an output location:

Any thoughts here? Is this an issue with server not having access to a network location to allow for file browsing?

Thanks!

It is not possible to specify where you want a file to be created using the Output Data from the Server. If you wish to save to a network folder, you need to replace the file browser interface tool that’s connected to the output with something else such as a Text Input. Then the user will have to paste the path there and the Server machine needs to be able to see that location.
