Welcome to the Greater Indianapolis User Group! My name is Patrick Digan @patrick_digan and I will be leading this group along with Dulton Moore @DultonM and Jarrod Thuener @jarrod.  As a way for everyone to get to know each other, reply with answers to the following questions:

 

  1. What’s your name and what industry do you hail from?
  2. How long have you been using alteryx?
  3. What Alteryx Tool/Feature do you like the most?
  4. What Alteryx Tool/Feature do you want to learn more about?

I'll start things off:

    1. Patrick Digan. I work for an insurance company.

    2. 1.5 years.

    2. Batch macros-I can always find a way to sneak a batch macro into a workflow.

    3. R-I've only scratched the surface, but I'm excited about being able to leverage the power of R in my alteryx workflows.

Hi everyone!

 

1.  My name is Isaac Embree.  I work in the insurance industry.

2.  Just started, so about 3 days now, though I haven't used it much at all yet.  I'm eager to use it more and learn more about what it can do!

3.  I like that you can view the data input and output for every object in the dataflow without having to create a physical output file or database table.

4.  I want to learn more about the Fuzzy Match tool.  I've done some fuzzy matching work with another enterprise tool that we own, so I'm very curious to see how Alteryx's Fuzzy Match compares.
