Workflows: History

Updated over 2 weeks ago

The Workflows > History section is your complete log of past workflow runs, giving you visibility into every automation that has been executed in your account. This powerful feature helps you monitor performance, troubleshoot issues, and ensure your workflows are running as expected. With this guide, you'll be ready to confidently track and analyze your workflow activity.

When to Use This

Use the History section when you need to:

  • Verify that a workflow ran successfully

  • Troubleshoot failed workflow executions

  • Monitor workflow performance over time

  • Review past automation activity for reporting or analysis

  • Check execution timing and duration patterns

How the Workflows > History Works

Here's what happens behind the scenes:

  1. Workflow Execution: When a workflow runs (either manually triggered or automatically), it performs its designated actions using AI agents

  2. Data Processing: The workflow processes your data, takes actions, and potentially returns results

  3. Execution Recording: Once complete (successfully or with errors), the execution details are automatically logged

  4. History Display: All execution records are then displayed in your History section with key details like duration, status, and resource usage

This gives you complete visibility into your data activation processes - you can see exactly what happened, when it happened, and how your AI workflows are performing over time.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Accessing Your Workflow History

  1. Navigate to History

    • From the left sidebar, click on "History" under the Workflows section

    • You'll see a comprehensive list of all workflow executions

  2. Understanding the History Display Each workflow execution shows:

    • Name: The workflow that was executed (e.g., "My workflow 4")

    • Status: Success (green) or Error (red) indicators

    • Duration: How long the execution took (shown in seconds)

    • Date: When the workflow was executed (YYYY-MM-DD format)

    • Credits: Number of credits consumed during execution

Step 2: Filtering and Searching Your History

  1. Use the Search Function

    • Enter workflow names or keywords in the "Search history" box

    • Click the blue "Search" button to filter results

  2. Filter by Status

    • Use the "Filter by status" dropdown to show only successful or failed executions

    • This helps quickly identify problematic workflows

  3. Filter by Date Range

    • Click "Filter by date" to narrow results to specific time periods

    • Perfect for monthly reports or troubleshooting recent issues

Step 3: Analyzing Execution Results

  1. Review Successful Executions

    • Green "Success" status indicates the workflow completed without errors

    • Note the duration to understand performance patterns

    • Credits column shows how many credits were consumed.

  2. Investigate Failed Executions

    • Red "Error" status signals something went wrong

    • Check the credit usage - higher numbers may indicate where the failure occurred

    • Compare with successful runs to identify patterns

Key Concepts / Best Practices

Understanding Execution Status

  • Success: The workflow completed all steps without errors

  • Error: The workflow encountered an issue and stopped execution

  • Duration: Measured in seconds; longer times may indicate complex processing or potential bottlenecks
