The Render the composed report pieces into a PDF document. It is the equivalent of the matching Alteryx Reporting / Portfolio Composer tool and runs in the workflow engine (reportlab / matplotlib); the renderer is an approximation of the Alteryx output.

  • Source Table — the data feeding this report piece.

  • Output Table — the table the rendered snippet is written to.

  • Report order — the order of this piece within a composed report.

  • Width / Height — embedded image size in pixels.

  • Output File — the document-store path for the rendered file.

  • Output Format (output_format) — PDF (pdf, the default), or HTML page (self-contained) (html) to write the report as one self-contained HTML page. Give the file name an .html extension.

  • Second Source Table (source_b) — a second input table, so the render composes the pieces of both inputs.

The Columns tab maps the source columns available to the report piece.
