After successfully setting up an automation, sometimes you may need to access information in your automation’s run history (e.g. execution time, troubleshooting with logs, etc.). Everything can be seen for each automation in its own run sidebar.
A Run is called the execution of an automation.
There are three types of automation runs:
- Regular run called run - a trigger is an event that starts automation - check out more →
- Manual run - starts the automation by manual execution by a person and skips the trigger - check out more →
- Simulated run - advanced feature to check complex inputs - check out more →
All types of runs are shown in the same run sidebar.
