@Sangini While chat GPT is great please try not to just copy and paste text from there as an answer, as the answer you provided clearly is AI generated

Hello,  So understand this in easy language.

Alteryx acts like a superhero, which helps to combine data from different Excel sheets into one. Here are some steps which we are following. 

--> Open Alteryx
--> Then, drag an "Input Dat" tool onto your workspace. 
--> Add Excel files where your data is stored. 

--> Use of the "Union" tools, which helps to merge everything.
--> After this connect the input tool to the Union tools. ( This helps Alteryx to know where to get the data from)
--> Click on the Union tool and make sure everything matches up. ( So Alteryx knows how to combine the data)
--> Then, you bring in an "Output Dat " tool. ( Which is to tell Alteryx, where to put the combined data)
--> Click on the Output tool and choose where you want to save your combined or new Excel file.
