## About Runs

A **Run** is a record of a workflow execution. Every time a workflow is triggered—whether by a record event, schedule, manual action, or webhook—a new run is created.

## Viewing Runs

### From the Workflow Editor
1. Open the workflow you want to monitor
2. Click the **Runs** panel on the right side
3. See a list of recent runs with their status

### From the Workflow Runs View
1. Go to **Workflow Runs** in the sidebar
2. View runs across all workflows
3. Filter by status, workflow, or date

## Run Statuses

| Status | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **Running** | Workflow is currently executing |
| **Completed** | Workflow finished successfully |
| **Failed** | Workflow encountered an error and stopped |
| **Waiting** | Workflow is paused (e.g., waiting for a Delay action or Form submission) |

## Run Details

Click on any run to see:
- **Status**: Current state of the run
- **Started at**: When the run began
- **Duration**: How long the run took
- **Trigger data**: The input that started the workflow
- **Step outputs**: Data returned by each step
- **Error messages**: If the run failed, what went wrong

## Step-by-Step Execution

Each run shows the progression through your workflow:
1. See which steps completed successfully
2. Identify where failures occurred
3. View the data passed between steps
4. Debug issues by examining step inputs and outputs

## Error Handling

When a run fails:
1. Open the failed run
2. Find the step that caused the failure
3. Check the error message for details
4. Common issues:
   - Missing required fields
   - Invalid data format
   - External API errors
   - Permission issues

## Re-running Workflows

If a run fails, you can:
- Fix the underlying issue and wait for the next trigger
- For manual workflows, trigger again with the same or updated data
- Review the workflow logic to prevent future failures

## Performance Tips

### Managing Run History
- Runs are retained for historical reference
- Very old runs may be archived automatically
- Export run data if you need to keep records

### Monitoring Best Practices
- Check runs regularly after activating new workflows
- Review failed runs to identify patterns
