Debugging

To debug your agentic process, select the Test option from the top-left toolbar. You can also use the Test step-by-step option to debug your project one element at a time.

After selecting a test option, the execution starts, and new panels are opened for you to test and debug the functionality of the process.
Note: A User Task step creates a task and waits for it to complete. To continue debugging, complete the task in Actions (formerly called Action Center).
In debug mode, you can interact with the agentic process elements and examine their details.

Note: In Debug mode, a process can run for maximum 30 minutes. This limit applies regardless whether the process fails or involves a long-running workflow.

Debugging properties

The Output tab shows the overall execution status.

The Execution trail tab shows you detailed information (Details) and variable values (Variables) for each step in the execution. Select the expand button to see additional variable details. You can edit variables when the debug instance is in a paused state.

The Action history tab shows you the comments logged from any manual interactions during the execution.

The Global Variables tab shows you the values of the variables for the entire process.



Breakpoints

You can set breakpoints on elements to see how they are executed.



When a breakpoint is triggered in an agentic process, the process engine will pause execution, allowing you to examine the execution details. To add a breakpoint, right-click an element and select Add Breakpoint from the context menu.

Select the Continue button from the top ribbon to run the entire workflow (or next breakpoint), or choose Next step to advance to the next step in your automation. If you want to end the debugging process and return to your agentic process, select Stop.
