The Automation Activity Log is for you if you’ve ever desired greater visibility into your automation activity. The Automation Activity Log will keep track of all of your automation.
What is it?
When automation is triggered, you’ll be able to record any actions or results in the Automation Activity Log. This log will indicate whether or not the automation was successful. If successful, the log will reveal when the automation was executed.
Note: The automation activity logs only records the most recent seven days of data or up to 500 automation processes, whichever occurs first.Opening the log
There are three methods to observe the activity of your automation. Using the Automation Center or the Board Activity Log, you can observe all activities for a specific automation recipe or for your entire board.
Individual Recipe Log
To see all activities associated with a specific recipe, navigate to the “Automate” section of your board:
Select the “Board Automations” tab, navigate to the desired recipe, and select the menu with three dots. Select “Automation Activity” in the menu:
This view will reveal the activity associated with this automation. You will see the date and time of each instance where this automation was executed. Additionally, the log depicts whether or not the automation operated successfully, the board’s name, and the complete automation protocol.
Automations Center
To access the activity journal within the Automations Center, select the word “Automate” at the top of the board:
Next, select “Board Automations” and then “Board Activity”:
