Submission GuidelinesHello all,
This may be a little controversial. As of today, when you buy an Alteryx Server, the basic package covers up to 4 cores :
https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Server-Knowledge-Base/How-Alteryx-defines-cores-for-licensing-our-products/ta-p/158030
I have always known that. But these last years, the technology, the world has evolved. Especially the number of cores in a server. As an example, AMD Epyc CPU for server begin at 8 cores :
https://www.amd.com/en/processors/epyc-7002-series
So the idea is to update the number of cores in initial package for 8 or even 16 cores. It would :
-make Alteryx more competitive
-cost only very few money
-end some user frustration
Moreover, Alteryx Server Additional Capacity license should be 4 cores.
Best regards,
Simon
I wish Alteryx would allow more control over user access to scheduling workflows. Currently there is only a radio button that globally allows users to access the scheduler. I wish we had another layer where we could limit access by Permissions. For example, we would like all Artisans and Curators to have access to the scheduler, but not viewers.
The Admin Gallery api needs to have the ability to get questions,execute jobs, get outputs. Currently I can only get questions, execute jobs and get outputs of my private gallery flows, I need to be able to do this for other Artisan flows without having to have their key/secret.
Hello,
Currently, Alteryx server doesn't read multiple files compressed in the zip folder. Here is more information: How to open multiple xml files using Analytical App workflow saved in Alteryx Server
I think this feature is useful for many people.

After a job is run on Alteryx Server, Gallery lists Job Results with a Status column containing with one of 2 values:
If any WARNING messages are generated by the workflow, the operator/user is unaware unless they take the time to expand the message log details, then scroll through the long list of messages that typically appear in the log.
Because the Success Icon appears whether there are Warnings or not, the user must dutifully spend extra time scrolling through the list looking for Warnings even if there are none to be found.
My Idea: provide additional information under the Status column in one or more of these ways:
I think that the user would benefit from a filter where they could focus on errors, warnings, or other types of messages in the same spirit as the Designer interface, but I recognize that would be a lot of work and I am not asking for that now.
Hi all,
For a user to know if a schedule was successful or not, they need to go schedule by schedule to check each of them.
I suggest adding one additional column to show the status of the last run.
Something like this:
Thank you,

Hello Alteryx Developers,
It would be great if you develop a way to connect the Alteryx Designer to AWS Redshift by SSO. When i try to set this type of connection at the Simba ODBC Driver it opens the connection several times with AWS at the browser and that ruin the customer experience.

I would like to suggest the idea of being able to handle row-level security data sources in a more seamless way using Kerberos passthrough, where Alteryx Gallery will pass the information that User A is running the workflow to the underlying DB and will authenticate as User A.
We have many workflows that are built to handle different queries of a database that are reliant on knowing who is running the workflow in Gallery. We also have many regional workers, and we want to keep the administration of these connections to the data as simple as possible.
For more information, check out the Community thread on this subject.
I think it would be a great feature to include the performance tuning logs as an optional output in Alteryx Server.
- This would allow me the ability to leave performance logging turned on, so I could see what was happening during an automated scheduled run of the workflow.
Performance Log : <Link> (or attachment)
I would also like to see a tool (or tools) as optional outputs such as:
File(s) Generated:
<List of Files: <Link to Files> <Size of File>
These type of outputs would be greatly beneficial options instead of "This Workflow produced No Output"
Thanks for reading

At the moment when you give the "assign job" permission the user can choose any worker, it would be great if there was a way to assign workers to users or groups.
Example 1 (worker 3 is assigned to one group):
Worker1 - Assigned to ALL
Worker2 - Assigned to ALL
Worker3 - Assigned to ArtisansGroup1
In this scenario, all Gallery users have access to Worker 1 and Worker 2 and the ArtisansGroup1 has access to Worker1, Worker2 and Worker3.
Without a doubt, Schedule Forecast is a great feature. I feel Schedule Forecast feature should be enabled for Artisans as well who usually create new schedules on Alteryx Server. Artisans can look up the existing schedule details at a specific time and decide if it is best time for their workflow to run. It will be counter productive otherwise in my opinion as curators have to inform the artisan to move their schedule to some other time as there are several other workflows running at the exact time and impact execution time.
Hi Team,
Earlier when we are in 2020.2 version we used to have "Company field" option when we are creating New Private Studio in the Subscription tab . Now we have Upgraded to 2020.4 version and we no longer see that option .
We have used Company Field to Tag the Solutions with certain specifications that would help us with the cost recovery mechanism.
So we need to have Option in our Use Case again. If could you please include "Company Field" option in Subscription tab or if Subscription is deprecated then in Collection tab for coming versions it will help us a lot.
Be able to subscribe to a concrete App in the Gallery so you can receive an email or notification when an App is updated. Several times I have been using an App that suddenly stops working properly because there's a new version available, but actually there's no way to be aware of this unless you check the date of the last version updated.
It will be ideal if you could subscribe to the app to receive new updates notifications or if Alteryx Designer could give automatically notifications of updates in the Gallery of Apps you have installed.
Currently you can only view the workflow results / history for other users workflows that are scheduled and the schedule is shared in the collection.
A lot of our workflows are set up to run on-demand, some as analytical apps and some as standard workflows.
The first point of reference when a user experiences an issue should be to view the workflow results, but currently this is not possible and just gives an error "Access Denied" even when the tick box is selected within Workflow settings.
My suggestion is that you should be able to see the workflow results of any workflow that is shared with you (regardless of whether it is scheduled or run on-demand) as this would make fault finding and user support much easier.
Thanks
Rob
Hello,
When trying to move and order the districts, it gives the impression that you can organize them in a particular order..
But what comes out on the Gallery side remains in Alphabetical order..
Can this bug be fixed please
We would like Gallery admins to be able to add any workflow to a collection - not just the workflows they authored.
The purpose is to have one collection where we have a set of workflows that were reviewed and approved for audits.
Only the reviewer could add to this collection
My team utilizes the Gallery API extensively and have found that we have processes that the API has listed as actively running, but cannot be found via the Controller's GUI. As a gallery artisan, I can call flows via API, but cannot cancel these executions unless I reach out to the administrator group to kill them manually.
It would be extremely helpful to add an endpoint with the ability to submit a specific job GUID and have the server/controller kill the execution of that flow and clear up the server capacity. This could then be scheduled on a regular basis as a maintenance task to keep the server clean.
Thanks
When saving to our company's gallery, we must deselect dozens of assets for our numerous workflows every time they need to be resaved, which is very frequent.
I would like to suggest a select/deselect all button under manage workflow assets. This would save a considerable amount of time.
Thank you,
Daniel
I would like to be able to open a user from the gallery - and see which collection(s) that user is in
If my collection is broken - I cant see users at all
Hey Team,
With 2020.3, the new Groups feature came into light, which is great, but seems like it was only half-thought.
It would have been nicely complemented with some API endpoints that would allow managing the groups' members - add, remove, list members, etc.
Seems like the API on Alteryx is like 100 steps behind and seems like the new developments are not considering adding APIs for the new released features. I feel this is a product roadmap issue.
As an admin, I would like far more ways to automate managing the Server/Gallery than the ones currently provided by Alteryx.
Integration with AD would be nice as well, we use SAML, and would like to have the option to import AD groups that would sync automatically in Alteryx - same way Tableau has those groups that are imported directly from AD.
Thanks,
Alex
Hi all,
i hopped onto Azure tonight to see if I could create an Alteryx server to start learning Alteryx server as a skill. I was expecting the cost to be somewhere in the range of Microsoft SQL server on Azure, or Microsoft Power BI (a few dollars, but not more than $20 per month for limited usage). I was fairly shocked by the price on offer (8k - 10k per month), with no option to price this by usage.
Could we work together to create options for people to stand up their own small Alteryx server like this for the purposes of learning - right now there is no way to learn Alteryx server unless you are actually an admin of a live server, which makes it impossible for people to learn this at home to build their skills (and impedes Alteryx building a base of skilled users in the market).
Happy to work with the team to help make this a reality.
cheers
Sean
