Short answer

How can I track my AI automations?

You can start a new process or check the progress of an existing one using your AI client. This allows you to manage execution status without opening a separate dashboard. You'll see exactly which tasks finished and which ones hit a snag.

Workflow outcomes

What you get

The AI handles the heavy lifting of execution and reporting.

EXECUTION

Start new tasks

Your AI uses the connector to kick off specific automation sequences. You just tell it what to run.

STATUS

Check progress

The AI looks up the current state of any running workflow. You'll know if a task is pending, running, or done.

AUDIT

Review history

You can ask for details on past executions. This helps you verify that everything ran as expected.

HUMAN

Handle failures

If a workflow fails, the AI reports the error. You'll need to step in to fix the underlying issue or retry the task.

The workflow

What your AI does when <the thing arrives>.

The AI acts as the bridge between your chat and the GPTBots engine.

  1. Initiate automation

    The AI identifies the specific workflow you want to run and sends the command to start it.

    trigger_workflow
  2. Fetch status

    The AI asks the system for the current state of a specific execution.

    query_workflow
  3. Report results

    The AI translates the raw execution data into a plain English update for you.

    query_workflow
  4. Identify errors

    If the execution fails, the AI pulls the error details so you can see what went wrong.

    query_workflow
