Challenge #194: SANTALYTICS 2019

Santalytics this year was all about getting to know each corner of the Alteryx Community better, and seeing a little of what 2019 had to offer in the process. The Santalytics 2019 Scavenger Hunt culminates here with Weekly Challenge #194.

 

Once you have the answers from each of the nine scavenger hunt clues, this challenge isn't too tricky! Simply match each day's answer to the corresponding tool rank in the Periodic Table of Alteryx Tools chart, and drop that tool into the workflow - no configuration necessary (although you may need to run the workflow after certain tools to populate the outgoing metadata).

 

Maybe you'll learn something about a tool you've never used before - check the data as it goes out of each tool to see what it does. The final answer is a single number coming out of the last tool (AKA the year that Santa is trapped in).

 

santalytics-1080x1080.pngRemember: we will donate $300 to either generation.org or bridgestoprosperity.org in the name of the first 10 people to get the correct answer.

 

Santalytics is open to everyone! Participation is voluntary and creativity is encouraged. As a gift for helping the reindeer rescue Santa, EVERYONE who completes challenge #194 (by Dec 31st, 2019) will be awarded with the #SANTALYTICS 2019 badge!

 

Good luck!
