Save the file again, on a drive that is accessible from AWS.

You get the BIN file by using the 'Choose' file - which will be the REQ file that was requested and you saved. On the Downloads & Licenses screen in the portal, you will see in the 'Announcements' box the last line of 'To Activate on a computer that is offline, see 'Upload Activation Request.' If you clink on this, then you see the 'Upload Activation Request,' which will be a 'BIN' file. Then you go to the Alteryx Designer portal - !account I installed it as an 'off line need have to create the request which will provide you a 'REQ' file which you save to a drive on our computer (in this case a file in the AWS space. This was needed for my original install, as you had to assign the license to the 'AWS machine.'įourth, I had to deactivate Alteryx on my PC, and reactivate on my AWS machine - this is why the above knowledge is needed before you start the move over. Your AWS administrator will need to assist in getting the machine to use. Third, for Alteryx download, is trying to understand the 'machine code' the license is being assigned.

Second, I had to remember to do all of my requests from AWS Workspace side. So I cannot place files on the PC I expect AWS to access - have to save to my network file. This may be corrected since I did the original down load.įirst, thing I had to get straight in my mind - AWS does not access my PC, it accesses files on the network. I don't know why or what it triggered, but it helped work. To make things work, I had to reenter my email address. On that screen it will show your email address (prefilled in). Also, there are some Alteryx screens which ask for your information and where you would eventually 'paste the key' for activation. Part of this is making sure the license is tied to the right machine, and I will say on the original transfer from my PC to AWS I had some issues getting everything to be accepted. I'm sure you know you do have to have internet access in the AWS Workspace for the download to work. I'm loading a Designer for a PC, not a server.
