Activity - History Widget
The History widget shows information about previously run workflows, tasks and processes. This data is identical to what appears in the Recent Activity page of a workflow, task, or process but conveniently displayed in a dashboard widget. You can sort and filter the data much like the Recent Activity page as well.
To add a History widget, from your Automate Enterprise dashboard, ClickTap Add and select Activity - History. For more details, see Managing Widgets.
Things to know and do:
- ClickTap the Maximize button
to view the widget full-screen. ClickTap the 
button to view it on the dashboard again. - ClickTap the Refresh
button to refresh the information in the display. - If records span multiple pages, click the next
or previous 
arrow at the bottom of the page to navigate to the next/previous page. - ClickTap Delete on the top of the page to permanently delete the widget from the dashboard.
