How to see when past workflows were run?

Feature Request
1

How can I see when the recent workflows were run? I can see a bunch were run, but is there a list somewhere of the times in the past they were run?

It would be helpful to see just a list of the times of the past 10 run (or some number). Was it yesterday or 2 months ago?

Hi @Bryan_Chase,

Unfortunately, there is not currently a way to see past workflow runs. If you reported state within these workflows, you can see a limited history by consulting the historical state data.

What data would you hope to see so I can create a Feature Request for this?

Thanks!

The main point is to show that the workflow actually ran and what time it ran. To make it more useful:

  • Show the text from the last DEBUG block it encountered
  • Allow FinalMessage to come from {{a.workflow.path}}
  • Show which block produced an error, if any

See this simplified idea, assuming I had a 1-hour timer:

Hey Bryan, there is an API endpoint that will return some high-level details about workflow runs. It’s not the most user-friendly thing in the world, but you may find it useful:

It’s a fairly high priority for us to begin introducing logging like this into the workflow UI - starting with presenting the info from that API endpoint and hopefully expanding over time.

As for the Recent Run column, that’s the count of times the workflow was triggered over the last 24 hours. I agree that we can make that more obvious in the UI. Thanks for the heads up!
