About the Workflows Page

Paragon Automation uses automated workflows or series of tasks to provision a service in the network. A workflow is generated for each service instance that you publish to provision a service. A workflow run refers to an instance of executing the tasks in a workflow. You can monitor the status of workflow execution from the Workflows page. Use this page to view details such as workflow execution states, workflow run status, and the details of the last workflow run.

Note:

The Workflows page lists data for up to 1000 workflow runs that were executed in the last 90 days.

To access the Workflows page, click Orchestration > Workflows on the navigation menu.
