input file from cloud to refresh data in alteryx gallery flow

[chiraz_cheikha]

Hello,

For a business case, i need to run an alteryx flow in alteryx gallery, but with an input file uploaded in the cloud,  the user can replace the file in the cloud service so that if we rerun the workflow from gallery the data will refresh, 

Anybody please has tried the same thing or knows if that is possible ?

As long as the file has the same name, it should just work.

Hi @chiraz_cheikha , 

Yeah, it is possible. 🤗

This really depends upon how you are authenticating to "the cloud." the complexity is in the authentication and in what your IT will allow/provision - not in reading in the file per se.

Hi @Ariharan, how is it possible please ? can you provide more details please ? basically it's excel files that we upload on sharepoint, but not sharepoint lists..

i am also open to any other solution to upload excel files from cloud and read them on alteryx desktop and then publish the workflow on alteryx gallery ..

To refresh data in an Alteryx Gallery flow, you can seamlessly input a file from a cloud server. Simply configure the Alteryx Gallery flow to connect to the specific cloud storage service (e.g., AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage). Utilize the appropriate credentials and file paths within your Alteryx workflow to access and refresh the data stored in the cloud. This ensures your Alteryx Gallery flow stays updated with the latest information from the cloud server.
