When you tranpile your Alteryx workflow file to a SQL project, it may get malformed if:
  • You manually edit the yxmd or yxmc file
  • A bad compression occurs on your yxzp file

​
Example

You attempt to import an Alteryx workflow but get the following error: 
Unable to load associated entities.
Then, when you click Validate, you get the following error: 
Following files have incorrect format: /customers.yxmd
And, if you click Transpile, the transpilation fails and you get the following error: 
Transpilation failed with exception: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber 181; columnNumber: 15; The element type "AlteryxDocument" must be terminated by the matching end tag "</alteryxDocument>".

​
Solution

  • If you compressed your file, reopen your Alteryx workflow in your Alteryx Designer. Save the workflow as is, and do not compress it.
  • If you manually edited your Alteryx workflow file, assure each open tag has a closing tag. Your Alteryx file must follow XML syntax rules. For example, if this is the beginning and end of the Alteryx workflow file from the example: 
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
<AlteryxDocument yxmdVer="2022.3">
{/* many lines in between */}
    </Events>
  </Properties>
    Add </alteryxDocument> at the end of the file.
