Once a flow is built, you can test it before going live and watch how it performs once it’s running.

Testing

Click Run test in the Workflow editor to execute the whole flow end-to-end and inspect what each node does. The result panel shows every node’s input and output as it runs — the fastest way to confirm your expressions resolve correctly. There are two modes:
ModeWhat it does
Dry run (default)Runs every node, including AI generation, but never publishes a post or triggers external side effects. The generated content is shown but not saved.
With real dataActually publishes posts and fires webhooks. Use it for a final end-to-end check.
A With real data test really publishes and fires side effects. Use it deliberately.
Test runs never appear in the Invocations log or Metrics — those report only on real, automatic executions.

Invocations

The Invocations tab is the run log: every time the live automation fires, it lands here, newest first. Each row shows:
  • Timestamp — when the run started
  • Run — its ID (click to copy)
  • Status — completed, failed, running, waiting, pending, or cancelled
  • Last message — a summary and the number of steps it ran
  • Duration — how long it took
Click any row to expand it and see the per-node breakdown of that run. Use the status filter to narrow to failures, and the search box to find a run by ID.
Only real executions show up here. Tests you run from the editor are kept out so the log stays meaningful.

Metrics

The Metrics tab charts the automation’s health and output over a date range you pick with the range picker. Run health
  • Total runs, completed, failed, in progress
  • Success rate and average duration
  • A chart of runs started, completed, and failed over time
Output
  • Posts created by the automation
  • A breakdown of those posts by platform
Like Invocations, Metrics count only real runs — test runs never inflate the numbers.

Settings and lifecycle

The Settings tab is where you operate the automation:
Change the automation’s name without touching the flow.
Flip the status switch to go live or stop. Pausing keeps the flow intact — the trigger simply stops firing until you reactivate.
In the danger zone, permanently remove the automation and its run history. This can’t be undone.
