Tasks
Quick Overview
The Tasks view is your dashboard for monitoring your agent’s work. Every time your agent runs a workflow, it creates a task that you can track and inspect in real-time. You can see exactly what your agent is doing at each step, watch workflows execute live, and quickly spot any errors or issues. It’s essential for debugging problems and understanding how your automations are performing.How to access Tasks
