Can Alteryx rerun a workflow when a file changes?

I’m working with Alteryx and have a workflow that processes data from an Excel/CSV file. Right now, every time the source file is updated, I have to manually rerun the workflow.

I’m working with Alteryx and have a workflow that processes data from an Excel/CSV file. Right now, every time the source file is updated, I have to manually rerun the workflow.

I was wondering if there’s a way to have Alteryx automatically detect changes to the input file and rerun the workflow, or if I need to use something like Alteryx Scheduler, Windows Task Scheduler, or another workaround.

Has anyone implemented something similar? What approach worked best for you?

This keeps the question:

Natural and Reddit-like.
Focused on one problem.
Open-ended enough to invite discussion and different solutions.

How can I run tsc –watch and nodemon together using npm scripts?

Hi everyone,

I’m learning Node.js with TypeScript and I’m trying to improve my development workflow. Right now, I compile my TypeScript files and then manually restart the server whenever I make changes. I was wondering if there’s a way to use npm scripts to run both the TypeScript compiler in watch mode and nodemon at the same time.

My current package.json scripts look like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "tsc",
    "start": "node dist/index.js",
    "dev": "tsc --watch"
  }
}

I’d like to automatically recompile my TypeScript files and have nodemon restart the server whenever the compiled JavaScript changes. Is there a recommended way to do this using npm scripts, or should I use another tool like concurrently or npm-run-all?

I’m still learning, so I’d appreciate a beginner-friendly explanation. Thanks!

Should Microsoft Graph API support SharePoint List Views?

Many developers working with SharePoint Online discover that while Microsoft Graph API provides access to lists, items, and metadata, it does not currently support retrieving, creating, or managing SharePoint List Views. As a result, developers often need to fall back to SharePoint REST API for view-related operations. From an architecture and developer experience perspective: Should(Read More)

Many developers working with SharePoint Online discover that while Microsoft Graph API provides access to lists, items, and metadata, it does not currently support retrieving, creating, or managing SharePoint List Views. As a result, developers often need to fall back to SharePoint REST API for view-related operations.

From an architecture and developer experience perspective:

Should Microsoft Graph become the single API layer for all SharePoint operations?
Is maintaining separate Graph and SharePoint REST capabilities creating unnecessary complexity?
What challenges have you faced when working with SharePoint List Views?
How are you handling this limitation in production environments?

Share your experience, workarounds, and thoughts on the future of Microsoft Graph and SharePoint integration.

Is Alteryx still relevant in the AI-driven analytics era?

With AI copilots, automated dashboards, and conversational analytics becoming more common, many teams are re-evaluating traditional analytics platforms like Alteryx. At the same time, Alteryx continues to be widely used for workflow automation, data preparation, and enterprise-scale analytics processes. So where does it stand today?Is it evolving alongside AI, or being replaced by newer approaches?

How are you optimizing workflows in Alteryx for large datasets?

I’ve been working with Alteryx on moderately large datasets, and performance starts to slow down as workflows get more complex. Looking for practical approaches others are using to: Reduce processing time Handle memory limitations Optimize joins and transformations Would be helpful to understand what’s working in real-world scenarios.
