Watch runs in Monitor

Find a run in the history, filter to what you care about, follow one live, and read what each step did.

View as Markdown

Workflows → Monitor is the run history: every run of every workflow, as it happens.

Outcome

You can find any run, tell what state it is in, and see which of its steps did what.

1. Find the run

The table shows Time, Workflow, Status, Duration, and Source. Filter it by workflow version and by time range.

From inside the builder, the Monitor button in the toolbar opens this page already filtered to the workflow you are editing.

Checkpoint: your workflow's runs are the only ones in the table.

2. Read the status

Status Means
pending Accepted, not started yet.
running In progress.
completed Every step that had to run finished.
failed A step failed and nothing recovered it.
suspended Normal. The run is waiting out a delay or waiting for a subflow.

suspended is not a problem state. A run in it has released its slot and will resume on its own.

3. Follow it live

Turn on Live Tail and new runs stream in without a refresh.

For a single workflow there is a second view. In the builder, the Live run toggle in the toolbar subscribes the canvas to the latest run: step cards light up as they execute, and the summary beside the toggle counts completed steps out of the total. Selecting a step while it is on also shows a small metrics strip — Success 24h and p50 latency for that step.

Live run is only available on a workflow that is saved, active, and has no pending changes. Hover the toggle when it is greyed out and the tooltip says which of those is missing:

  • Save the workflow first
  • Save your changes to watch live runs
  • Activate the workflow to watch live runs

4. Open a run

Click the row. The Steps panel lists each step with:

Column Shows
Step Its name. Steps from a subflow are indented under their parent.
Type The step type identifier, such as http_request.
Status pending, running, completed, failed, or skipped.
Duration How long it took.
Error The failure message, where there is one.

The panel does not show the payload each step was holding. To inspect values, use Test Request in the builder, or persist them with a Map to Data Model step so they land in the warehouse where you can browse them.

A failed run also gets a Run again from the failure panel — see Recover a failed run.

Checkpoint: you can name the first step that did not complete.

The Analytics tab

The Analytics tab on the same page totals Total Runs, Completed, Failed, and Avg Duration for whatever the filters are set to, with breakdowns by workflow and by status. It is the view for "is this getting worse?" rather than "what happened to this one?"

Common problems

No runs at all. The workflow is probably inactive — saving is not activating. Check the Workflows list for its state.

Runs stop appearing after a while. Run history is retained for a period set by your plan, and older runs are pruned. Check the time filter first, then Settings → Organization for your retention window.

A run sits at running for a long time. Open it: the step in progress is the one to look at. A step calling a slow endpoint holds the run for as long as that call takes, plus any retries.

A run says suspended and nothing is happening. That is a delay or a subflow in progress. It resumes on its own — check the parent run's steps for which one is waiting.

I cannot tell which version ran. Filter by workflow version. Every run is pinned to the version that was active when it started, so an old run keeps showing the old behaviour.

Next step

Recover a failed run.
