Monitoring & Alerting for Automations
Learn to monitor your automations for performance and errors, setting up alerts to notify you of critical events.
Why Monitor Automations?
Just like a car needs regular check-ups, your automations need monitoring! This ensures they run smoothly, catch errors early, and deliver the results you expect.
Monitoring involves observing your workflows' performance, while alerting means getting notified immediately when something needs your attention.
Your Automation Dashboard
No-code platforms like Zapier and Make provide built-in dashboards. These are your central hubs to see the status of all your automations at a glance.
- Zapier: Check 'Zap History' and 'Dashboard'.
- Make: Look at 'Scenarios' and 'History'.
They show active workflows, recent successes, and any errors that occurred.
