Using a Service Account with Alteryx Gallery

Alteryx community, happy Friday :)

 

--------------------

 

Here is the situation I find myself in.  I work in a department that has very sensitive (HIPAA) data.  As it stands, we have Windows server installed on a virtual machine, and we access the Alteryx server through this same vm.  I have noticed that when I package and then add a workflow to the gallery, when a user goes to run it, if there are any output or input tools they do not work.  I had a co-worker from another department with less sensitive data tell me that it was because I don't have a service account.  I don't believe that we are ever going to get data security to allow us to have a service account.  Alteryx community, has anyone out there found themselves in the same scenario?  Is a service account the only answer for this situation?  Thank you.
