ayx-blackbird: Build fast tools, fast.

What is it?

ayx-blackbird is a package for building new tools for Alteryx Designer in Python.

Alteryx Designer is equipped with a Python SDK. This SDK is quite powerful, however it is convoluted and difficult to use for newcomers.

ayx-blackbird is an abstraction layer for the Python SDK that compromises on neither ease of use nor performance.

Main Features

• A suite of example tools to get you off the ground.
• CLI tools to set up your tool directory structure, assist with development, and package YXIs.
• An extremely flexible development platform that by default, allows extremely fast development of new tools, and with small modifications, extremely fast performance.
