Recording - Mastering Alteryx Designer Tools | Beyond the Basics Session 3: Analytic Apps

[MadisonD]

Hi SparkED Network! We are back with the continuation of the Mastering Alteryx Designer Tools series, but this time with a focus on intermediate and advanced-level topics! Join Alteryx SparkED for the highly requested extension of the Mastering Alteryx Designer Tools series – Beyond the Basics.

Checkout the recording below of Session 3 - Analytic Apps. During this training, Alteryx ACE, @Deanna Sanchez, demonstrates how to use an analytic app to build a workflow of your own data and parameters (using the previously used pizza sales data). An Alteryx Analytic App is a self-contained program that performs a specific function for the user. An app consists of a workflow with a user interface created using Alteryx Interface Tools.

Attached are the Analytic Apps Deanna created during Session 3, and she included a bonus Analytic App that shows the List Box tool.  Also, Deanna added notes with Comment tools along with additional bonuses for two of the workflows/Analytic Apps, showing a few more Interface tools that can be beneficial. Don't forget to save the attached zipped file to a local directory or your desktop, then unzip the file. Next, you can utilize the File/Open Workflow option in Alteryx and import the packaged .yxzp files, which will allow you to run the App right away. 

This part two training series is tailored for individuals who have a solid foundation in Alteryx Designer and are eager to explore the more intricate aspects of data analytics, reporting, spatial analysis, and automation through macros and apps. The very knowledgeable and esteemed Deanna Sanchez, Alteryx ACE and GIS (Geographical Information Systems) expert, will continue to lead these sessions, sharing her expertise on all things advanced analytics through hands-on Alteryx Designer application with sample and/or publicly available datasets.

If you missed part one of the Mastering Alteryx Designer Tools series from last year, access the session recordings below! Packaged workflows are included on the threads linked. These videos are a great way to prep and gain experience before joining part two of this Alteryx Designer training series.

• Intro to Alteryx

• Data Manipulation & Transformation

Check out the training schedule below for upcoming session dates, topics, and registration details. We begin with reporting, using Alteryx to build dynamic charts, maps, and tables in a variety of output formats.  Next, Deanna will showcase her spatial analytics expertise by leveraging a range of spatial tools within Designer to create, combine, and modify spatial objects to generate insights. Lastly, we’ll cover apps and macros, learning to create user-friendly interfaces with Analytic Apps and automate tasks through macros.

Join us for this exciting series designed to push your Alteryx Designer skills to new heights. Whether you're a data enthusiast, analyst, or seasoned Alteryx user, these sessions offer a deep dive into advanced topics, providing you with the tools and knowledge to tackle complex data challenges confidently.
