Hi, Alteryx User Group Members!  Please save the date for the next Dallas / Fort Worth Alteryx User Group virtual meeting, this Friday, October 28th, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. CT!  As we continue virtual monthly meetings for October and November, with an in-person meeting in early December, we are excited to announce the following schedule:

All meetings are scheduled from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. CT; the December meeting time may change slightly, depending on host venue.

For this month's virtual meeting, we welcome Alteryx ACE Alex Gross back to the DFW stage!  Alex leads the Germany user group, and has presented for our members on many advanced topics, such as utilizing Python in Alteryx.  He recently presented FOUR topics last week at the Alteryx Inspire EMEA conference, including a presentation on using Design Patterns in Alteryx, and his topic for our user group meeting is titled "Alteryx Inspire Special".  Join us to see many of Alex's innovative presentations that received top reviews!

A link to the Alteryx WebEx will be posted in the calendar on the Events page, and please join the meeting using the link at 2:00 p.m.

If you may be interested in presenting at a future user group meeting, we would love to hear from you!  Presenting to your fellow user group members is a great experience, giving you the opportunity to showcase your skills and knowledge to a receptive audience.  Please reach out to me here on the Community using @Deanna , and I would be glad to follow up with additional information.

Thank you again for your support of the DFW members, and we look forward to seeing you soon!

Hi, fellow Alteryx users!  Our October meeting was a great success, with Alteryx ACE Alex Gross back on the DFW stage!  Alex's presentation of the "Alteryx Inspire Special" featured a collection of all four of his sessions at Alteryx Inspire EMEA this year.

With his engaging and fun presentation style, Alex showcased the following topics:

• Worldwide Product Data Availability with QR Codes
• Joined Forces:  Build Your Workflows Together
• Design Patterns with Messy Spreadsheets
• The Beauty of Python Macros

There were so many highlights for each of these sessions, with numerous innovative methods and cool tips and tricks!  Special thanks to Alex for taking the time late at night in Germany to present to our user group - it is truly appreciated!

I also presented a short segment on Intermediate Parsing techniques, which included ways of looking at your data before parsing in order to use the optimal tools.
