Short answer

Your AI uses Chuanyun to pull the specific approval path and historical steps for any object you specify. You'll get a clear timeline of who did what and when. This breakdown shows you exactly how the data is gathered and analyzed.

Audit outcomes

Where the data lands.

What you get after your AI runs the audit.

LOGS

Complete audit trails

The AI pulls every timestamped step in the approval chain. You see the full sequence of events for a single object.

DETAILS

Object state history

Your agent looks up the current and past properties of a business object. This helps you see how values changed during the process.

GAP

Human intervention needed

If the logs show conflicting data or missing permissions, your AI will flag it. You'll need to step in to resolve these discrepancies manually.

REPORT

Summary of changes

The AI condenses the raw history into a readable summary. You get a clear picture of the approval path without digging through raw logs.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI moves through these steps to reconstruct the history of your business objects.

  1. Identify the object

    Your agent first locates the specific business object you are asking about to ensure it's looking at the right record.

  2. Pull the history

    The AI fetches the full sequence of approval actions and status changes tied to that object.

    get_workflow_history

  3. Reconstruct the path

    The agent organizes the raw logs into a chronological timeline of approvals and rejections.

    get_workflow_history

  4. Verify object state

    The AI cross-references the history with the current object data to confirm the final status.
