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
If you get server up and running and develop 200 workflows and then schedule them, and then want to change the schedule on one of them, it is a total hassle. What did I call that workflow? you sit there wondering as you look through a huge list of workflows.
It would help a lot to have the concept of projects / folders / some type of logical grouping so I say, What did I call that workflow? while only looking in the public safety, or HR, or Accounting, or whatever subset of workflows. I mean, we don't have to go all crazy and have collections, districts, and private studios, but at least one layer of categorization would go a long way in making a proliferation of workflows more manageable.
Thanks!
I have my component set to email me if it errors, which is great. But then when it does bork, I get a 6M email that is impossible to scroll through on a mobile device. Maybe give an option to only email the error line / tool identifier so you have a better idea of what happened, but don't get war and peace as told by info logging.
In Alteryx Gallery admin, please add a confirmation before applying a change to the default user roles. Since it can be changed so easily and isn't very clear to what happens when new admins make a change to that drop down. For example: They do not realize they changed all the default users to curators! But they do learn quickly.

With a majority of our Alteryx users working via VPN, our Firewall systems are detecting a brute force attack if a user tries to open another Alteryx tab within 60 seconds. We would like to request to reduce the amount of authentications attempts on the Alteryx Gallery site when launched, so there isn't 100+ 401 unauthorized errors to trigger the Firewall system to disconnect the session.
When opening an workflow from the Gallery in Designer, I'd like to be able to filter the search by collection
A little 1 I know, but I'd like an icon on my toolbar where I can open workflows from my company's gallery. The amount of times I hit the open workflow icon, to then have to browse the disk. All my workflows are stored in my company's gallery.
Hello Alteryx,
I know that it wasn't intended to have a long list of people under permission, but because changing a default to viewer, effects everyone we have to manually input everyone we want to have as an artisan.
With this long list it would be nice to sort them accordingly
Thank you
The Pop up window for Browser tool currently is working in the App environment but not working in the Gallery environment. It is essential when you want to show user the immediate results. there will be too much efforts for user to see the results if I use output/render tool.
Please add a TAGS filter for workflows filter
Hello,
I was recently hired by a fortune 500 company to eliminate use of their Access DB's by replacing them with Alteryx solutions. My first step is to understand the old DB's so I know what type of workflow to build. I'd love to have an ERD tool built in Alteryx to drop right after the input data tool. The closest I've found is the Network Analysis tool, but I don't see that giving me the desired output.
I would like to see how tables are connected, what manipulations are being done, when a query/view/macro was last used, what outputs being delivered.
Thanks!

Ability to change the default workflow settings when to also include [Others may view this workflow's history] in a similar way to the other attributes in workflow settings that are set by default. This would prove beneficial for workflows which are shared across a large team and need to be run on a consistent frequency and are not run headless. The inability to set this by default leaves a risk that the setting remains unchecked and more than one user triggers that workflow in a given month which could result in a material impact if the output of that workflow is posting to another system in the firm.
Hello,
We have been building a solution for a client that involved chaining apps. When we uploaded the workflow to the server, we got the below error: Workflow exceeded maximum runtime of 30 seconds and was cancelled. We were able to rectify this by having the client implement the change here. While I understand the need for the limit, is there any plan to have this fix be more obvious to the average user to implement or avoid needing to reimplement following a server upgrade?
Thanks,
I Would Like a new Email added under [ Admin -> Notifications -> Emails ] where it would send an Email when a Schedule reaches the status "Complete"
This can serve a couple of use cases;
When using In-DB with iSeries over Generic ODBC everything works fine in Designer however when executing via Gallery process fails because a semi-colon ";" is added to the SQL statement as a terminator character and iSeries rejects this SQL0104 - Token ; was not valid. Valid Values < END OF STATEMENT >
We have a MongoDB connection string that we plug in to RuntimeSettings.xml during install. Upon startup, the Mongo connection fails because RuntimeSettings.xml expects the connecting string to be encrypted. The fix for this, is for someone to manually update the MongoDB connection via the Alteryx UI. We would like a way to encrypt the MongoDB connection string for RuntimeSettings.xml before we start Alteryx for the first time.
Hi Alteryx Team,
I understand that the Timeout feature on all Workers is only available for the workflows scheduled on Alteryx Server.
In a heavily used server environment and depending on how workflows are configured, can we have a timeout feature available for non-scheduled workflows (adhoc workflow runs/manually triggered workflow runs) as well on all the Workers on Alteryx Server ?
Thank You,
Nishi Jain
It would be great if we can set the priority of a job when scheduling a workflow through either the Designer UI or through AlteryxService addtoqueue command
In my organization we primarily schedule jobs through these avenues and this would bring them up to par with the scheduling capabilities of Gallery
For example:
AlteryxService https://help.alteryx.com/current/server/alteryxservice-commands
addtoqueue=path,host[:port],secret[,true]
^ add an optional parameter that takes enum value {Low, Medium, High, Critical}
Designer UI
Add a dropdown that takes an enum {Low, Medium, High, Critical}
Alteryx Server API should be allowed to publish the workflow in the gallery.
The search for replacing a workflow is poor (and I get that it is probably challenging to write on the back end) but as a result even if I type in the exact title of the workflow (aka copy and paste) Alteryx replace can't find it. Not only does this mean I have multiple workflows with the same name running around (loads of fun with lack of version control) but it also makes this entire thing more frustrating every time I update a workflow (as normally this also means the scheduling of said workflow breaks).
It would be awesome if instead of having to search by title for your workflow that you wish to replace with if you could instead use the URL where Alteryx Gallery put the workflow and then there wouldn't be any confusions about which workflow and you wouldn't have to type.
