How to insert path to Alteryx gallery

[Kate13122]

Hi all,

May I kindly ask you for help? 

I need to figure it out how to upload more files at once to the gallery. 

My workflow includes a folder where I have stored all files ( format, columns, etc are the same and it is working)  Now I need to figure out how to get this workflow to Alteryx Gallery as when I click on "Browse" there is only option to select one file. 

Thank you very much all.

Hey Katarina,

Unfortunately, as you may already know, the browse tool doesn`t work on the gallery.

One of the reasons is that you are accessing your private folders when browsing and most of the time, the server doesn`t have access to your folders.

Another important part is that you must use a shared folder and UNC path, so both your computer and the server machine understand the path you are trying to reach. Here is more about UNC paths if needed: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Knowledge-Base/File-Paths-and-Alteryx/ta-p/847200

My suggestion is to use a drop-down tool and have all the UNC paths available for you to select from. OF course that would eliminate the dynamicity of a folder browse but that is the only solution I can envision.

Best regards,
