License Desktop Automation with Alteryx One Platform

Professional Editionプロフェッショナルエディション of Alteryx One Platform doesn't support direct licensing of Desktop Automation. As a workaround, Alteryx procures Designer license keys to enable Desktop Automation. Read this page for more information.

Prerequisites

  • Professional Editionプロフェッショナルエディション of Alteryx One Platform

  • Flexera License Keys for Designer and Desktop Automation

  • Access to your Alteryx One Workspace

Enable Desktop Automation

Follow these steps to enable Desktop Automation:

重要

Users must ensure they have local admin permissions when entering keys and that User Account Control (UAC) is not interfering with service registration.

Get Your Designer License Key

For Alteryx One Licensing

  1. Your Account Administrator should invite you to an Alteryx One Workspace.

  2. Select the Join Here button in the invitation email and complete your registration in Alteryx One Platform.

  3. In Alteryx One, go to the Overview page.

  4. On the Designer tile, select Activate.

  5. Copy your Unified Designer License Key.

For Legacy Licensing

Use your existing Designer License Key provided through your licensing process.

Get Your Desktop Automation Add-On Key

Locate the Alteryx Desktop Automation add-on key in the email sent to your License Administrator.

  • The add-on appears in the email exactly as Alteryx Desktop Automation.

  • If you can't locate the email, Alteryx Support can provide the key.

Install and Activate Designer

注記

If you previously activated Designer using online activation, deactivate it before continuing.

  1. Install Alteryx Designer.

  2. Start Alteryx Designer.

  3. If the License dialog does not appear automatically, select Options > Manage Licenses.

  5. Enter the two license keys on separate lines:

    • Your Designer license key

    • Your Alteryx Desktop Automation add-on key

  6. Select Activate.

Configure Desktop Automation (New Installations Only)

If this is a new machine installation:

  1. Go to Options > Advanced > Settings.

  2. Select Next through the configuration pages and adjust settings as needed.

  3. Select Finish.

The AlteryxService should start automatically, enabling scheduling.

Verify Service Configuration

To confirm the service is configured correctly:

  1. Open the Services application in Windows.
