Overview

The Admin Console gives you detailed insights into your workflows. As an admin, you can track all workflows to monitor usage across your organization.

Workflow Analytics

Data in the Analytics tab updates every 5 minutes.

Workflow Metrics:

  • Created Workflows: The total number of workflows that have been created within the selected date range.
  • Flow Runs: The number of times a workflow is triggered—counted each time the first form is submitted by a form filler within the selected date range.
  • Completion Time: The average time it takes for all workflows to be completed from start to finish within the selected date range.
  • Participants: Participants are the individuals actively involved in each flow, including signers, approvers, task assignees, and others who interact with its steps within the selected date range.
