How to resolve those Alteryx workflow with inputs / outputs that has an *.csv files?
I'm getting an error "cannot find the file path" when I upload the workflow in the gallery.
Hi @JT0168
That error is most likely the result of your server not having access to or being able to recognize the path/location where the data lives. Try using a UNC path to the location of the file(s) in the Input/Output Tools and republish to your server.

Hope that helps,

1) Make sure the server has access to the file location of where the files are stored.
2) If Alteryx Server is using a run as user, make sure this user also has access to the location of the files.
3) As a best practice, I would recommend storing the files in a network location where the server can access these files.
Hope this helps, if it does please like this post and if it helps resolve your problem, mark it as a solution. If you have any other questions, please let us know.
How about the *.csv, how will it work in the gallery?
The .csv file will just be referenced when the workflow is executed in the gallery. a .csv will work the same as a .xlsx file.
The workflow references and validates the inputs/outputs when the workflow is executed in the gallery.
Hope this helps.
*.CSV It will work the same way that how it is working in Designer. The only problem why you are unable to access file path in server is i will think your server doesn't have access to the respected folder.
