1. Learned a lot about spatial tools and solving practical dad problems (sprinkler placement for optimal lawn watering) and a fun plug for adventofcode.  A big thank you to all the hosts especially @BradWerner and @Deanna!  Q2 - Just appreciate the variety and quality of topics the presenters keep coming up with and ability to stay plugged in on what's new - always something to learn.

2. Accounting/Finance

3. 3 years

Thanks again!

Thank you so much for hosting the user group! This is the first virtual one I have been able to attend and it was time well spent.

1. What did you learn by attending the UG meeting today? I learned that if you click on the tool in the toolbar and open examples it gives practical applications. Previously I had been searching on the community to learn about the tools.
2. What would you like to learn about at the Q2 meeting? Tips and tricks for improving processing speeds identifying problem areas and deciding what can be improved. My use case also includes macros with api calls.
3. What do you do for a living? Website analytics tracking setup, analysis, and data visualization
4. How long have you used Alteryx? 1 year

Hi,

Response to questions follow below -

What did you learn by attending the UG meeting today? What would you like to learn about at the Q2 meeting? Some helpful implementation features and resources to get certified were discussed. In our next meeting, would like some more discussion related to how usage of newer features could assist with quicker and simpler completion of some helpful tasks.

What do you do for a living? Database Architect.

How long have you used Alteryx? 1 year.

Thank you.

Thank you for the meeting!  There was a lot of great info and I will definitely be dipping my toes into the weekly challenges.

1. I learned about using the summary tool with spatial data (I'm an Alteryx spatial newbie). I would like to see use cases from our members, especially of Intelligence Suite.
2. Data Analyst in the health insurance industry
3. Off and on for four-ish years

I just now figured out how to post a pic! 😜 Here it is!

I wanted to give an update that a winner has been chosen from the Austin Group! Thank you everyone for submitting! @Heidi__dup_127 I love your car. It always warms my heart when I'm driving around and I see an Alteryx car magnet. They are super rare to find and I'm always nosy to find out who owns it. 😉 I'm looking forward to doing something similar at future meetings. 🙂

Thank you, Lauren!

Can you tell us who the winner is?

Hey @Heidi__dup_127 , it was sisi2001401! 🙂
