Executing Actions manually

An action can be executed manually at any time through Flow Designer. Any person with access to Flow Designer and the Execute permission for the Action is able to execute it.

1. Open the Flow Designer

2. Navigate to the Actions group

3. Right click the Action that you wish to execute and select Run Action from the context menu that appears.

4. A log screen will appear that will fill with detail as the Action executes

   

5. When finished a message box will appear indicating success or failure. Click OK to continue.

   

   

6. You can now review the Action log and double click entries to view more detail. Click Close when finished.

WARNING

Sometimes the success/failure message box is hidden behind the Flow Designer application (particularly when moving around applications). In this case use ALT-TAB to switch back to the Flow Designer application which will cause the message box to come to the front.
