Using Alteryx Designer, we take a look at our MLB database to build the same run differential measure that was visualized in Tableau. We look at how a simple workflow can be constructed in Alteryx. We also build some simple charts in the designer using the Interactive Chart Tool.

Below are the following tools I use in the workflow screenshot below:

• Input Tool
• Select Tool
• Unique Tool
• Formula Tool
• Filter Tool
• Interactive Chart Tool
• Insight Tool
• Browse Tool
• Containers & Comments

This was my first time using chart tools in Alteryx. So I am pretty confident that with some more practicing I can learn how to make some more complex chart visuals. I enjoyed the insights tool; this is where you can create a dashboard type report, a mixture of charts and text overlays that allows the developer to create a template report.

Follow me below as I walk through the workflow.
