Debug Runbook Flow
The Debug Runbook Flow feature is useful during development, it allows you to:
-
Identify which branches were executed or skipped.
-
See which nodes succeeded or failed.
-
View any errors encountered during execution.
This visibility can significantly reduce development time and improve troubleshooting.
When a runbook activates, IQ stores information about the executed nodes and any errors it encounters during execution. You can view this information on all pages where the runbook appears, including during a test run. To access it, open the ... menu, select Debug Runbook Flow, and click on it. This action launches the Debug Runbook Flow dialog. The dialog displays all nodes in the runbook, highlighting the nodes that executed and graying out the ones that did not.
The Deubg Runbook Flow dialog also allows you to see the parameters that were set for each node as well as any error encountered when running the node. If you want to see the configuration of the node or the errors, single click on the node in the Debug Runbook Flow dialog and another dialog will be launched to show you the configuration and the errors for the node. Click the Config tab to see the node configuration and the Error tab to see any errors. The Error tab will not be visible if there are no errors.
When node debugging is enabled there can also be a third tab, called Debug. This tab shows the debug information that the node emits when debugging is enabled for the node.
