[en] UnknownTool_71x71.pngGeneric / Unknown Tool

[en] Designer tool icons represent the tool's specific task or macro. When Alteryx Designer can't find a macro referenced in a workflow, Designer displays the Unknown tool along with an error message to let you know. This gives you an opportunity to reconfigure (right-click and choose Insert > Macro to browse to the macro), which restores the intended tool.

[en] The Generic tool, which also displays the question mark icon, is used to access a dynamic-link library (DLL) or plugin.

注意
