Early Preview Connection Types

Select connection types might be made available in Alteryx Analytics Cloud (AAC) prior to general availability and full support. These Early Preview connection types are intended to enable customers to get connected to their source data to begin building their data wrangling pipelines. The currently available Early Preview connection types are described below.

General Limitations

Avvertimento

Early Preview connection types provide early access to and use of new connection types so that you may begin working with data in your connected datastores. Avoid deploying Early Preview connections into a production environment before testing in Dev/Testing environments. To send feedback, please contact Alteryx Support.

Unless explicitly stated below, each Early Preview connection type has the following limitations:

Cloud/SaaS only. Early Preview connections are not available for self-managed deployments.
Read-only. Writing back through the connection is not supported.
Authentication. Access to the datastore must be completed through the listed and supported method for the connection type. Depending on the connection, the method may be limited to one of the following:
- Basic credentials (username/password)
- APIKey
- SecurityToken
- OAuth 2.0
- Methods of authentication not listed with the connection type are not supported.
Limited data type support. All imported data is mapped to the following basic data types:
- String
- Integer
- Decimal
- Boolean
- Other data types, such Datetime, are not officially supported for Early Preview connections. They might be processed properly.

Additional possible limitations include:

SSO is unlikely to be supported.
Connect String Options cannot be applied to data modeling.
Import uses a default schema, which may not show all of the available tables in the connected database.
Of the available tables, some tables may not show all columns due to limitations in the data source.
Performance through an Early Preview connection may be slower than for generally available connections.
Connector-specific functionality that may require additional engineering may not be supported through the Early Preview connection.

Support Policy

Early Preview connections are made available in AACAAC with the intention of making them generally available and fully supported at some point in the future.

These connections are supported with the following limitations:

These connections are supported only for importing datasets and generating samples.
The configuration, supported use cases, supported data types, and limitations are subject to change prior to making the connection generally available.
While it is the intention of Alteryx to make all Early Preview connections generally available for our customers, Alteryx reserves the right to remove the connection from availability at all or to change the connection at any time prior to general availability.
Bugs found in Early Preview connections may not be fixed before general availability.

Avvertimento

Avoid using Early Preview connections in production environments without testing them first in Development/Staging environments.

Coming Soon connections:

Connections that are labeled Coming Soon in AACAAC might be made available in the future. If you are interested to getting early access, please contact Alteryx Support.
