Using metamorphOSProcessesProcess Instance View

Process Instance View

An instance is one run of a process. Its detail view is where you see exactly what happened: where the run is on the process graph, which steps have executed, what data it’s carrying, and - if it failed - why.

Open it from a process’s instance list, from a task’s breadcrumb, or from Monitor.

Reading the view

  • The status chip at the top tells you the state at a glance - Running, Success, Error, Cancelled, or Paused.
  • The process graph shows the instance’s path through the steps.
  • Execution History lists the steps in order, including any active tasks - the audit trail of what ran and when.
  • The context panel shows the instance’s data (its symbols). When you select a past transaction, it shows the data as it was at that point.
  • Footer tags carry the revision and the instance ID (with a copy button).

When an instance fails

If the status is Error, a banner names the failed step and shows the error message. Use the Execution History to find the step that failed and the context panel to see the data it was working with - together they tell you what went wrong. Connector-related failures are covered in Integrations → Troubleshooting.

Acting on an instance

From the instance menu you can:

  • Cancel Instance - stop a running instance (when it has a cancellation path).
  • Migrate to a newer revision - move the instance onto a newer version of the process, when one exists.
  • Download Program - export the process definition this instance is running.
  • Processes - the list these instances come from.
  • Tasks - the human steps that appear in the history.
  • Monitor - instances and transactions across the whole tenant (admins).
