Changing the Output directory on .yxwz workflow

Hello great Analytics folks:

Good afternoon. I am trying to change the output result in different directory at .YXWZ Alteryx workflow. After changing and the folder location when I am running the workflow it is directing the result in same old directory. 

How can I change the output in my desired output folder location?

Appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks

Hello,

 

Do you have a Formula tool that overwrites the location?

 

Can you share your WF?

Got it, if you have created a formula tool with the folder path, then it must be updated as well with the new directory path.

In the File name formula I have used only 

 

DateTimeFormat(DateTimeNow(),"%d%m%y")+ "File name"

 

How do I change the directory path here in the formula tool?

@Kinetic_analytics Is the path showing in the workflow dependency window is where you want to save your workflow? Also please check the formula tool filepath field value is updated with the new path
