Execution history

This page explains how to create and manage flows in the DoiT console, including editing, deleting, and viewing the run history of a flow.

View run history​

To check the status of all the flows, select View run history from the main CloudFlow page.

The status of each flow is listed along with the time of completion and the duration. A single flow execution that runs for longer than 1 hour is automatically terminated. Once the flow has stopped, check the status of your flow in Run history to see why it was terminated.

CloudFlow run history

Possible status of a flow run:

  • Pending: The flow has a node that is pending.

  • In progress: The flow has a node that is still running.

  • Complete: The flow has been executed successfully.

  • Has errors: The flow has a failed node.

View details of a single run​

You can select the name of a flow to view the status of each step. This is often necessary when troubleshooting a failed flow.

In the example below, the flow failed due to incorrect syntax of a parameter.

CloudFlow run history - nodes

View sub flows run history​

When a flow calls another flow using a Sub Flow node, the parent flow's run history shows each Sub Flow node run with a link to the corresponding sub flow run.

CloudFlow parent flow run history

Select View subflow run to open the child run and inspect its steps, outputs, and timing.

CloudFlow sub flow run history

If a sub flow fails, the parent flow fails at the Sub Flow node. The error shown at that node in the parent run history is the same error from the failed node inside the sub flow (which node failed and why), so you can understand what went wrong without opening the sub flow run. Select View subflow run to inspect the sub flow's full run history.
