Open multiple excel files as input in Alteryx Server

Question

Hi All,

I am trying to load multiple excel files as inputs in Alteryx Server, knowing the fact that directory tool+dynamic inputs might not work. Is there any other way to it like similar to using wildcards in desktop application?

If there is a solution, can someone please guide on this how to build it?

Thanks,

@cpet13 yes server has access to the folder, I can use the wildcard but strangely it does not allow me to edit the input filed in the server to use the wildcard.

@db89 if the server has access to that folder, it should do that, if you put the wildcard in the workflow's input data connection.

@cpet13 thanks for your response. so do you mean that in server it would allow me to put the wild card to load all files from that folder?
