How can I check the current status of an automation?
You can see whether an automation is Running, Paused, or Idle/Stopped from the Automate Dashboard. For a time-stamped trail of events (started/ended), use the Activity tab.
Explanation
- The Status badge in My automations shows the live state of each strategy.
- The Activity tab lists recent events (e.g., Automation started, Automation ended) with timestamps.
FYERS Web
- Go to Automate → Dashboard → My automations.
- Locate your strategy and read the Status badge in the same row (e.g., Running, Paused, Idle).
- For details, open Automate → Dashboard → Activity history and review events such as Automation started or Automation ended under Action type with the exact Action time.
FYERS App (Mobile)
- Open the FYERS App and go to Automate.
- Tap My automations.
- Select the automation you want to check.
- If the automation is currently running, the status is shown on the automation details screen.
- Open the Activity section to view events such as when the automation started or stopped.
The mobile app shows the current automation state and recent activity for the selected strategy, making it easy to track runs while on the go.
What If?
| Scenario | Outcome / What to check |
|---|---|
| Status shows Idle/Stopped but I expected it to run | Open Activity to see if it ended (e.g., hit an exit condition or a stop node). Start a new run if needed. |
| I clicked Run now but the status didn’t change | Ensure the automation validated successfully. Refresh the Dashboard and check Activity—the run may have started and ended quickly. |
| I can’t find the strategy in the list | Use search/filter in My automations and verify the Show deleted toggle. Confirm recent events in Activity. |
| Status/Activity seems stale | Refresh the page and reopen Activity. Check your network connection and try again. |
