Manage Failed and Paused Flow Interviews

View all failed and paused flow interviews from within the Automation app. From there, you can debug failed flow interviews and resume paused flow interviews.

To access the Automation app, ensure that the process automation setting Enable the Automation Lightning App is selected.

View Failed and Paused Flows

  2. To view failed and paused flow interviews, see the All Flow Interviews list under the Flows subtab.
    The Error Details column shows you the reason for a failed flow interview.

If the All Flow Interviews list view shows no results after customization, check if the Current Flow API Name field is included. This field is dynamic and must be paired with supporting fields. To resolve the issue, remove the Current Flow API Name field, or include at least one of these fields:

  • Current Flow Type
  • Current Flow Version
  • Current Flow Version Label
