Hi, User Group Members!  Thank you to all who attended the Q4 North America Central Alteryx User Group meeting on December 17th; it was an awesome meeting, with an informative presentation on Predictive Analytics, along with an ad hoc discussion on the new Assisted Modeling features in the Alteryx Intelligence Suite add-on!

We had a very fun interactive portion where members were assigned to breakout rooms, and together we built an Analytic App from a blank canvas, using one of the Santalytics datasets that can be found at this link:  Sample Data Sets and Ideas - Alteryx Community .  Our team decided to use the "Billboard Top 100 Christmas Carol Dataset" which can be viewed here:  Billboard Top 100 Christmas Carol Dataset | Kaggle .  We had a great time building the Analytic App, with some excellent suggestions on how to allow the end user to determine whether they wanted the "best" or "worst" Holiday songs!  🙂  Thanks to host Jonathan Shertok for expertly facilitating, and for the great image to use with the app!

Attached is the Analytic App; we hope to submit it to the Santalytics contest by December 31st; please see the Santalytics page for more information:  Santalytics 2020 - Alteryx Community 

For those members who participated in the NA Central User Group meeting, please feel free to download the attached app and add more features to it!  Please upload your updated app to this page as a reply, and we can submit on December 31st for the contest!

I am copying the users who were part of the build process on the attached app; thank you for your awesome participation and suggestions, and please feel free to add your enhancements to this app as well!

Happy Holidays to everyone and a wonderful New Year!
