Cloud Execution for Desktop
Schedule and run your Designer Desktop-built workflows in the cloud. Cloud Execution for Desktop lets you link your Alteryx Designer Desktop instance to an Alteryx Analytics Cloud (AAC) workspace (part of the Alteryx AI Platform for Enterprise Analytics) and then save your desktop-built workflows to the AAC library (which belongs to your AAC workspace). Once saved to the library, you can navigate to AAC and schedule those workflows to run.

To use Cloud Execution for Desktop, you need…
