Data Source Options
With an cloud deployment, there are 4 options for ingesting data: On-Premises and Cloud Databases, CSV Files, and Uploading from Alteryx Designer.
Database Connectivity
Auto Insights can connect to databases from a range of vendors. Allowlist the following NAT-protected IP addresses:
34.82.130.80/29 44.225.183.12/32 52.89.130.54/32 35.163.16.225/32 34.231.22.77/32 54.83.56.84/32 52.71.88.85/32
For a full list of supported databases, please refer to this list.
CSV Files
CSV or zipped CSV files can be uploaded to Auto Insights.
注意
The delimiter used in the flat file must be unambiguous and must not clash with data values and column names. We recommend putting double quotes around all values.
For all options, we suggest a Data Guide describing the meaning of each of the columns in the data, and an overview of the subject matter, ought to be provided.
There are benefits to connecting to a database and not a flat file:
Reuse database views containing business logic and data transformation logic
Speed up exploration and consumption of additional data for new use cases
Automate data refresh and eliminate effort and delayed manual extraction
Connecting to the data source of truth reduces the risk of data integrity issues
Unstructured data is currently not supported.
For more information on loading datasets via flat file, go to data preparation.
Upload from Alteryx Designer
The Auto Insights Uploader tool is available for Alteryx Designer versions 2021.2 and newer, allowing datasets to be uploaded directly into Auto Insights. For further information on the Uploader, go to Auto Insights Uploader Tool.
Email Service Requirements
To support functions including user invites, sharing of Missions summary, and any other future email-based features of Auto Insights, emails are sent from the following email addresses:
no-reply@mail.alteryxcloud.com
The above domain should be allowlisted on the email server so that ' replies are not filtered incorrectly or placed in spam.
注意
Email encryption: supports email transfer through an encrypted channel. Auto Insights does not currently support email content encryption.
Client Data
Client data (your organization’s data) is segregated into different files and database tables–meaning one client’s data does not exist in the same file or table as a different client and is protected by:
User access control in Auto Insights.
O/S user security using SSH public key (and not password).
Infrastructure security, firewall security, and network security.
Access Control Data
User access control is managed by Alteryx Analytics Cloud, and no passwords are stored within Auto Insights.
The database does not contain any client data or personally identifiable data except the first name, last name, email address, and workspace name.
The database contains metadata for the client datasets for Auto Insights.
Access Control
The Auto Insights Admin Portal feature controls user access rights. The controls can be at the user-, the group-, and workspace level, and can be applied to data down to the row level.
