New Features
Link Designer with the Alteryx Platform
You can now link Designer and the Alteryx Platform. This lets you save your Designer workflows to the Platform as well as open workflows from the Platform in Designer. Go to Manage Alteryx Links to learn more.
XML Parse Tool Enhancement
The XML Parse tool now includes an option to not pass the original parsed field downstream.
Generate Support File
Generate a tech support file that contains information to help our Customer Support Engineers properly troubleshoot your issue. The file includes system information, environment variables, engine logs, ODBC Drivers and Versions, and much more!
Public Gallery and Designer
You can no longer save workflows from Designer to Public Gallery. Read more on the Alteryx Community.
Error Message Enhancements
Certain error messages in the Results window now link to Community articles that will help you understand and resolve the errors.
CEF Upgrade
We upgraded CEF to version 91.0.4472.124. You might encounter a blank screen when authenticating to OneDrive, Dropbox, Dataverse, Box, SharePoint, and Power BI Connectors. Please note that you need to update these connectors to resolve this issue.
New Intelligence Suite Tool
The Alteryx Intelligence Suite now includes a new Text Mining tool. The Named Entity Recognition tool allows you to train a model that identifies predefined or custom entities, like people, places, or things, in text data.
Data Connection Manager (DCM)
Data Connection Manager (DCM) is the unified secure vault to store user credentials. Use DCM to improve security by moving your credentials outside the workflow and synchronizing them across the Alteryx product suite.
Engine Compatibility Mode
The Engine Compatibility Mode feature aims to provide configuration at the workflow level with a similar experience with regard to record order across both engines. It also provides an easier migration path bringing large numbers of workflows from the original engine to AMP.
Record Limit for All Inputs Support in AMP
The global setting Record Limit for all Inputs is now supported by AMP. In the Workflow Configuration - Runtime tab, you can set the record limit in one place for all Inputs.
Customer-Managed Telemetry
Instrument your Designer desktop installations to log workflow metadata and XML locally. You can use these logs to automate any number of processes, like change control or departmental utilization metrics. To maintain the highest expectations of customer privacy, these logs are customer-managed and are not sent to or logged by Alteryx.
