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 order to create, modify, or delete a service instance in the network. 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.
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.
Tasks You Can Perform
You can perform the following tasks on the Workflows page:
-
View workflow details such as workflow IDs, states of workflow execution, time and status of the last workflow run, and so on. See Table 1.
Click the All Workflow Runs hyperlink at the top of the page to open the Workflow Runs page and view the list of all workflow runs.
