Hi Alteryx Engineer,

We are asked to use gallery, My workflow is reading some config file and source data are all stored in local, and my output is to local file as well,  How can i implement those at gallery？

Hi @aeolus187 

To implement your flow in the gallery in this way, the ideal would be to have a network directory configured so that the running user if this is the scenario, has access to this folder and can read and write to this network directory.

This is usually how I implement it on clients.

Another way, not recommended, would be for the alteryx server to be able to access your folder directly on your machine. Obviously, this folder would have to be shared, and the gallery running user would have to have access to it.

Hope this helps
