Hi Everyone.
Is there some post on the internet or an article on how to build Alteryx workflows? I have some methodologies that would help people make more structured workflows.
I prepared a draft I am sharing below, but I would like to read more materials about this topic. The list I drafted below is focused on helping Alteryx developers who aren't subject matter experts and heavily rely on supportive documentation during the development process.
- Understand the problem
- Do I have everything necessary?
- input files / accesses to data sources
- information about data extractions
- documentation
- knowledge
- Build workflow
- Test if your logic is working as expected. I suggest doing that often in the development process.
- When it makes sense to build automated tests
- Reuse your previous work (use Macros or part of different workflows which can be reused).
- Gather a list of questions (I prefer to have a couple of them before I ask them as some of the questions I can answer while working on the workflow)
- Get answers
- Clean workflow during the development process
- Continue building workflow and repeat any previous steps if necessary.
- After the workflow is done and tested, you must clean it. Invest at least 10% of the time which you have invested in the development process
If you don't have any links or materials that you can share, I would appreciate your feedback as I would like to prepare something that can be reusable by others.
