We’ll start by introducing and installing Alteryx Designer and exploring options for importing and exporting data from flat files, folders, text, and databases.


Next, we’ll apply tools to prepare our data for analysis, including filtering, sorting, sampling, cleansing, and more. We’ll dive into data transformation, and use joining tools to combine data from multiple streams, parsing tools to modify and extract text, spatial tools to create maps and distance calculations, and transpose tools to aggregate, transform, and reshape our data into new formats.


Last but not least we’ll use data visualization and automation to bring our Alteryx workflows to life, with custom layouts, interactive charts, maps, macros, and more.
