To download a product:

1. Sign in to the Alteryx Downloads and Licenses portal at licenses.alteryx.com.

As an alternative to online activation, you can submit a request for an activation (.bin) file, upload the .bin file to the Alteryx Downloads and Licenses portal, and then use the .bin file to activate license keys on your computer. A separate license key is required for each product.

Create a request (.req) file from the offline computer:

1. Open Alteryx Designer. If the Alteryx Designer Activation window does not open automatically, click Options > Manage Licenses > Activate New License.

2. In the (Undefined variable: Products.Alteryx product) Offline Activation window, click Create to create a request (.req) file to request product activation.

3. Type your First name, Last name, and Email address and then type or paste your License keys.

4. Click Create request.

   Alteryx creates a request file with your email address and .req extension as shown in this example:

   name@company.com.req

5. Click Save to save the request (.req) file where it can be accessed from the Alteryx Downloads and Licenses portal or send the file to your license administrator.

Upload the request file to the Alteryx Downloads and Licenses portal:

1. Sign in to the Alteryx Downloads and Licenses portal at licenses.alteryx.com.

2. On the Home page, click Upload Activation Request.

3. Click Browse to find and select the request (.req) file.

4. Click to upload the request (.req) file.

   The Alteryx Downloads and Licenses portal generates an activation file with your email address and .bin extension as shown in this example:

   name@company.com.bin
   Alteryx saves the activation file as a binary (.bin) file to the computer's default download location. The .bin file contains the activation information.

5. Click Save to save the activation (.bin) file so that you can access it from the offline computer.

Open the activation (.bin) file on the offline computer:

Using the offline computer, browse to the activation file you created in the previous step. This file must be accessible to the offline computer. If you sent the file to the offline computer, you can search for capabilityresponse.bin file to locate it.

1. In the Alteryx Designer Activation window on the offline computer, click Back.

   Alternatively, click Options > Manage Licenses > Activate New License to open the Alteryx Offline Activation window.

2. Click Browse to find and select the activation (.bin) file.

3. In the Activation Success window, click Experience Alteryx.

   The Alteryx Designer tools are now available.
