Get Started with Alteryx One Google Edition
Alteryx One Google Edition lets you analyze Google BigQuery data with Designer Cloud LiveQuery. If your organization has provisioned your account, you can begin building workflows without configuring connections.
Before You Begin
Before you use Alteryx One Google Edition, make sure that:
Your organization has purchased Alteryx One Google Edition through Google Cloud Marketplace.
Your administrator has granted you access to your workspace.
You have permission to access the Google BigQuery data you need.
Sign In
Open your Alteryx One Google Edition workspace.
Sign in with your Google account.
If prompted, review and grant the requested Google Cloud Storage and BigQuery permissions.
Note
During your first sign-in, Alteryx One Google Edition requests the Google Cloud permissions required to access BigQuery and Google Cloud Storage. Grant these permissions so the platform can configure your workspace automatically.
After authentication, the Alteryx One home page opens.
From the home page, you can:
Create workflows.
View jobs.
Access the Data Library.
Open existing workflows.
Create a Workflow
Select Create.
Select Workflow.
Select Designer Cloud LiveQuery.
A new workflow opens in Designer Cloud.
Build Your Workflow
Add the BigQuery tables or views you want to analyze, then use Designer Cloud visual tools to prepare your data.
Typical workflow tasks include:
Filtering rows.
Selecting columns.
Joining datasets.
Creating calculated fields.
Aggregating data.
Sorting and cleaning data.
Designer Cloud translates supported workflow operations into SQL that runs directly in BigQuery whenever possible. This lets you work with large datasets without moving them outside the data warehouse.
