I've created a new custom HTML/js tool and installed it, but it doesn't show in my tool ribbon. Thinking maybe there was some kind of issue with the tool itself preventing it from loading correctly, I tool an existing sample tool (HTML_Widget_DataItem_Example), changed the name, created a new yxi file out of it (following all of the js SDK documentation), and installed it. As with my tool, it correctly installed to my AppData/Roaming/Alteryx/Tools folder, but neither show in my ribbon. Apparently I can't see any custom tools I install. What is the trick to getting Alteryx to recognize a new tool via the yxi installer method?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Does the expanded config files exactly match the directory name?
Must be <FolderName>Config.xml
Can you give a folder listing and that xml file? It's basically the only thing designer needs to make it show up - rest of it needed at later stages.
@jdunkerley79, a-ha! That did it. I had a space in the folder name. Thanks!
