Monitoring Workflows Health
Monitor your Workflows activity using tools in the Blink platform. All your past executions can be seen on the Executions page and each Workflows shows its past executions in the Run Log tab. The activity graph of a Workflows indicates if a Workflow has failed and why. You can opt to receive notifications on failure of Workflows via email.
Monitoring Workflows Activity
Past executions
![Thumbnail](/img/Automations/ExecutionsMenu.png)
View all past executions of a workspace in the main navigation menu > Executions. The page lists a history of executions and their status. The status can be one of the following:
Status | Icon | Description |
---|---|---|
Completed | The Workflows has run successfully. | |
Stopped | The Workflows has been stopped by the creator. | |
In progress | ![]() | The Workflows is running. |
Pending | A Step is pending human approval. | |
Failed | The Workflows failed to execute successfully. | |
Timed out | A Step has timed out as no approval was granted. |
Run Log Execution History
Click on any execution and you will be redirected to the Run Log tab of that specific Workflows. The left-hand side shows a list of past executions. At the top of the page, a status bar shows relevant information pertaining to the selected execution. Beneath it you can see input parameters entered by the user, details of each step, as well as the output that was returned to the user. Click on an output parameter to see all outputs relating to this execution, or click on another execution of the same Workflows to see its details. The run log displays executions from the last 30 days.
You also have the option to choose whether you want to display test runs in the Runs logs section. To do this, simply click the icon located in the top-right corner, and then check the box if you want to show test runs or uncheck it if you prefer not to display them.
Activity Graph
The activity graph can be found on the Workflows page, next to each Workflows, and shows the activity trend in the last 30 days. Click on the graph and you will be taken to the Workflows execution page, automatically filtered to view the last 30 days.
Monitoring Workflow Failure
Error Indicator on the Activity Graph
The activity graph can be found on your Workspace Workflows page. Upon failure on the last run, an error symbol - the small orange circle with the exclamation mark in the middle - will be displayed. Hover your cursor over the graph to see a tooltip that displays the time and reasons for the error.

Monitoring Workflows Failure via Email
Select which Workflows to be notified, via email upon failure. For example, get notified if system critical resources management or production-critical Workflows fail, so you can attend to such issues quickly. Select which users to notify for each Workflow.
Configuring Notification on Error
In the Workflow Overview page of a selected Workflows, toggle the "notify on error" button. A dialogue box will appear
Enter the email addresses of users that will receive the notification upon failure of the Workflows execution. Separate the list of email addresses by ,.
