Is it possible to execute Alteryx workflow from python script using Alteryx Engine API

[deepika_durvasula]

We are using Alteryx for data cleaning process. After the data is cleaned we want to transform data to RDF triple format and load to graph DB. And I found Alteryx doesn't support RDF triple format.

So, I want  to know is it possible to execute the Alteryx workflow from a python script using Alteryx engine API ?

And as soon as the execution is completed I can write the rdf triple transformation logic and dump the data to graphDB.

Any other approaches/ideas could also help for transforming data to RDF triples format in Alteryx.

Thanks in Advance,

Deepika Durvasula.

Hey @deepika_durvasula ,

I'm not familiar with RDF files but you can leverage the python tool inside of Alteryx to do it, and in my opinion, it is your best option.

You also have the option to call alteryx using the command line, but for that, you need a scheduler license or an alteryx server license.

With Alteryx Server, you also have the option to use the Alteryx Gallery APIs.

 @deepika_durvasula did you solve your problem? I am trying to do the exact same thing using Alteryx to parse RDF files. Any thoughts on a possible solution?
