It shows which runs are scheduled, updating, or inactive \u2014 so you can track large-scale updates in near-real time.<\/p>\n<p>This is especially useful when updating hundreds or thousands of runs at once, where the process can take time and you need confidence that everything is completing as expected.<\/p>\n<h2>How to access the Run Update Report<\/h2>\n<p>The Run Update Report is a filtered view of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.process.st\/help\/docs\/reports\/\">Reports<\/a> page. There are two ways to access it:<\/p>\n<h3>From a workflow\u2019s options menu<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the workflow you want to check.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <strong>ellipsis icon<\/strong> (\u22ef) to open the options menu.<\/li>\n<li>Select <strong>Run Update Report<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This opens the Reports page filtered to that specific workflow, with the <strong>Run Update Status<\/strong> column visible and runs sorted by status. All runs for the workflow are shown, not only those with a particular status.<\/p>\n<h3>From the Reports page<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Navigate to <strong>Reports<\/strong> from the left sidebar.<\/li>\n<li>Add a filter for <strong>Show Run Update Status<\/strong> contains <strong>Scheduled<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This approach lets you monitor run updates across multiple workflows at once. Add as many workflows as you need to the filter, and save the view for quick access later.<\/p>\n<h2>What the report shows<\/h2>\n<p>The Run Update Report provides a breakdown of every run affected by your workflow update. Each run displays one of three statuses:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Scheduled<\/strong> \u2014 The run is queued and waiting to be updated.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Updating<\/strong> \u2014 The run is currently being updated to the latest workflow version.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inactive<\/strong> \u2014 The run has been successfully updated.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As runs move through the update process, the report reflects their current state.<\/p>\n<h2>Refresh button<\/h2>\n<p>A <strong>Refresh<\/strong> button is available on the Reports screen to reload the data without refreshing your browser. Click it to pull the latest status of your runs.<\/p>\n<p>The Refresh button has a 5-second cooldown to prevent excessive requests. After clicking it, wait for the cooldown before clicking again.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> The Refresh button is available across all reports, not only the Run Update Report.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>When to use the Run Update Report<\/h2>\n<p>The Run Update Report is most valuable when:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Updating a large number of active workflow runs after publishing workflow changes<\/li>\n<li>Running migrations or bulk updates where you need to confirm every run has been processed<\/li>\n<li>Debugging an update that appears stuck or incomplete \u2014 check the report to identify which runs haven\u2019t reached <strong>Inactive<\/strong> status<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>Does the report update automatically?<\/h3>\n<p>The report does not auto-refresh. Use the <strong>Refresh<\/strong> button on the Reports screen to see the latest progress.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I see reports for past updates?<\/h3>\n<p>The Run Update Report shows the status of the most recent update for a given workflow. Previous update reports are not retained once a new update begins.<\/p>\n<h3>What if some runs show as stuck?<\/h3>\n<p>If a run remains in the <strong>Scheduled<\/strong> or <strong>Updating<\/strong> state for an extended period, try refreshing the report.
