The Run History Page

The Run History page displays a list of runs of all Workflows or of a selected Workflow and allows you to investigate the results of each run.

The Run History page consists of the following main elements:

• Search/Filter bar
• Run History table
• Total (<# of runs performed>) - Increments by 1 each time an event arrives and triggers a workflow.
• Actions menu

Run History Table

The Run History table displays a list of Workflow runs, with one row representing each run. The Run History is updated after each event.

The Run History table includes the following fields, by default, for each Workflow, and where relevant, for each element within the Workflow:

• Structure - Shows only the icons of the events and actions from the path that the asset went through within the workflow.
• Run - The ID number of the run. Begins with WF, e.g,. WF Run 70.
• Workflow Name – The workflow name.
• Status - The status of the latest run that originated from this workflow. For example, if an Add Tag to Asset action is currently running in the workflow, the current status of this action is displayed. Available statuses are:
  • Pending - Workflow is waiting to be run.
  • In Progress - Workflow run is in progress.
  • Awaiting - Workflow is waiting for an event. The Workflow changes to this status after a certain amount of time that the run is In Progress and doesn't automatically move to another status.
  • Completed - Workflow completed running.
  • Timed Out (in red) - An Event, configured with Timeout but without a Timeout condition, has reached its timeout limit. In this case, the Workflow terminates due to the event timeout.
  • Terminated - Workflow run terminated due to the user manually terminating the Workflow run.
  • Failed - All actions failed.
  • Partially - At least one action (but not all) failed.
• Trigger – The icon and name of the event or action that triggered this workflow.
• Triggered On – The asset on which the event was triggered.
• Last reported activity - The last node that has been completed in the workflow. Updated each time a node is completed.
• Start Date – The date and time that an event last triggered this workflow.
• End Date – The end date and time of the entire Workflow run. This field displays a value only when the Workflow run has completed.

Viewing Detailed Run Information and Component Configuration

On the Run History page, you can click any Workflow run (row) to open its Run drawer. The Run drawer has a tab for only those components (Event or Action) in the route that the asset took in the Workflow. Clicking a tab shows detailed information about the Workflow run for this component as well as the configuration of the component. Learn more on how Event fields are displayed in the run drawer, including parsed string fields.
You can click the Enforcement Center icon in the header of the Run drawer to open the detailed configuration of the Workflow.

The following Run Drawer presents the run details and configuration of the Microsoft Teams - Send Message action that triggered the workflow. You can click the other tabs to present the Teams Message Response event or Axonius - Add Tag to Assets Enforcement Action run details and configuration.

At the top of the drawer are tabs of the events and actions that ran in the workflow. For each event/action, the following information is shown:

• Started, Ended - Start and end date and time of the event/action run.

• Type - Whether the workflow component is an Event or Action.

• Status -

  • Event status can be any of the following:
    • Awaiting - Status of the last event of a run that is in Awaiting status.
    • Timed Out with gray shading - The last event of a run, which is configured with Timeout and is followed by a Timeout Condition, has reached timeout.
    • Completed - Status of the event if the run is not Awaiting or Timed Out.
  • Action status can be any of the following:
    • Success - The action succeeded.
    • Failure - The action failed.
  • Delayed - The action is configured to run at a later time.
    :::

• Affected Asset - The asset affected by the run. Clicking the link opens the asset profile page.

If the running of the event/action results in an error, the Run Error is displayed in the drawer.

Viewing Run History of an Asset

In the Run Drawer, you can click the Affected Asset link to open the Asset Profile page of that asset, and in the page that opens, click the Enforcement Runs tab to see the history of all enforcement runs (Enforcement Set and Workflow runs) on this asset. To learn more, see Asset Profile Page.

• Event Type - Filters by the triggering event.
• Action Type - Filters by Enforcement Action.
