Monitor your workflow runs, debug issues, and replay runs with fixes.

Overview

RetroFix keeps detailed logs of every workflow run for troubleshooting and analysis.

Retention

  • Logs saved for 30 days by default
  • Full history - All run details preserved
  • Accessible anytime - Access past runs for debugging

Viewing Runs

Inside a Workflow

View runs for a specific workflow:
  1. Open the workflow
  2. Click “View Runs” in the workflow configuration
  3. See all runs for that workflow in chronological order

Global View

View all runs across all workflows:
  1. Click the Runs tab on the sidebar
  2. See all workflows and their recent runs
  3. Filter and search across workflows

Run Information

Each run shows:
  • Status - Running, Success, Failed, or Cancelled
  • Timestamp - When the run started and ended
  • Duration - How long the run took to complete
  • Trigger - What triggered the run (manual, scheduled, event)
  • Input data - Data that triggered the workflow
  • Step results - Output from each step
  • Errors - Details if something went wrong

Step-by-Step Details

Click on a run to see:
  • Each step’s input - What data went into the step
  • Each step’s output - What data came out
  • Execution order - How steps ran (parallel or sequential)
  • Loop details - Info for each loop iteration
  • Test values - Variables at that point in execution
  • Error messages - Detailed error information

Run Statuses

Running

The workflow is currently executing.
  • Can be in progress for minutes or hours
  • See live progress in some cases
  • Can be cancelled if needed

Success

The workflow completed successfully.
  • All steps executed as expected
  • Final output is ready
  • No errors occurred

Failed

The workflow encountered an error.
  • See the exact step that failed
  • View the error message
  • Replay with fixes

Cancelled

The run was manually stopped.
  • By clicking the X button while running
  • Usually to stop an unexpected behavior
  • Data up to cancellation is still logged

Debugging Failed Runs

Find the Error

  1. Open the failed run
  2. Look for the first step marked as failed
  3. Read the error message
  4. Check the step’s input and output

Common Issues

The step couldn’t find expected data from previous steps.Check:
  • Is the variable name correct?
  • Did the previous step actually return data?
  • Are you inside a loop or conditional?

Replay Functionality

What is Replay?

Replay re-runs a failed (or successful) workflow with the same input data but using a different version of the workflow. This is powerful for testing fixes without waiting for the next natural trigger.

How to Replay

  1. Open a run you want to replay
  2. Click “Replay”
  3. Choose which version to use:
    • Draft - Test your changes before publishing
    • Published version - Use a specific published version
  4. The workflow runs with the same input data

Cancelling Runs

Cancel a Running Workflow

While a workflow is executing:
  1. Find the running run in the list
  2. Click the X button next to it
  3. The run stops immediately
  4. Already-processed data is logged
Cancelling doesn’t undo any changes made before the cancellation point. Be careful with workflows that modify external data.
