Activity - Active Widget
The Active widget displays information about active instances of workflows, tasks and processes, including object name, repository location, start time, and duration. This data is identical to what appears in the Active Instances page, but conveniently displayed in a widget. Add this widget to your Dashboard in order to quickly view which workflows, tasks, or processes are presently in a running state and determine which workflows are placed in a queue of waiting workflows based on their priority.
To add an Active widget, from your Automate Enterprise dashboard, ClickTap Add and select Activity - Active. For more details, see Managing Widgets.
