What is the use of Select tool in Alteryx

This recipe explains what is the use of Select tool in Alteryx

Recipe Objective:-What is the use of Select tool in Alteryx.

Step 1:-

Open Alteryx Designer software.Here New workflow1 is by default available.

Step 2:-

Now go to the Favorite tab or IN/OUT tab where we can see a tool named as "INPUT DATA".

Step 3:-

Drag the INPUT DATA tool on the below side in the New Workflow1.Now go to the Configuration pane/window and click on the drop down available to connect a file or database.

Step 4:-

After this it will redirect us to the data connection window, here we have to click on files option, then click on select file option,it will then ask us to select a file from the folder, here we have selected a file named as"Coffee Chain Sales".Then select "Sheet1" from file and click on Ok.

Step 5:-

Then click on Run button or press CTRL+R, In the results workflow data will be displayed.Drag the Select tool from the Preparation tab and connect it with the INPUT DATA tool.

Step 6:-

Then go to the configuration pane/window,Here we can see the Field names option, deselect the State,Type and Region field/column names, then click on run button to view results workflow.Here we will not view the deselected fields/columns, only the field/column names which are selected can be seen in the results workflow.
