2021 Q4 Meeting Recap

[Kenda]

Good Monday Morning Everyone!

I hope you're all well rested after the weekend and ready to tackle another week of Alteryxing. 

Here are some discussion points and resources talked about during our meeting last Friday:

• @NicoleJohnson first introduced us to interface tools and apps. she also provided us with lots of great resources to get started with apps:
  • Articles

•Tool Mastery | Apps and Macros (an introduction to apps & macros)

•Tool Mastery | Action (a deeper dive into configuring the Action tool, which makes the magic happen!)

•App Building Guidelines (super old article, but still has some excellent advice for best practices)

• • Training

•Interactive Lessons | Creating Analytic Apps (short interactive videos demonstrating some of the key features/options/functionality of the interface tools used in building apps)

•Advanced Certification Prep | Part 3: Building Apps (hour long video covering the basics of interface tools and app building – great resource if you’re working on your Advanced certification too!)

• • Weekly Challenges

•Weekly Challenge Index (look for challenges that include “interface” in the Main Subject column)

•Santalytics 2020 (last year’s challenge was based on building an app, and resources included a great listing of articles, videos, blogs, and specific Weekly Challenges that might help you with your apps!)

• Our very own @jarrod created an awesome BINGO game that attendees played during the first talk and @dillon_bok was our big winner!
• @patrick_digan wrapped up the meeting by walking us through a fantastic crossword puzzle full of tricky Alteryx trivia clues

Here are the crossword puzzles! The password is "alteryx" if you want to unlock the sheets. I used this site to generate the crossword and then I manually copied it to excel.

Here is a very detailed walkthrough of @NicoleJohnson's Naughty/Nice list app.

It was so much fun, guys! 

Thank you @Kenda, @patrick_digan, and @jarrod to put together another successful meeting! 😀

Hey all,

Attached are the two workflows that enabled the Bingo game to run during the meeting. You'll need a way to post the pages - i used xampp for the meeting, then shut it down afterwards and I set the "Bingo Monitor Boards" workflow to run every minute and pull the newest list of words from google sheets. 

Enjoy!
