View the details of an action node in a playbook execution and approve or reject actions.

In the Actions section of the Execution details screen, clicking Check details in a listed node opens the Action Details screen, which tallies and lists the status of the action for each target of the selected node.
There are six possible action statuses:
  • Pending approval (pending_approval=7ad48a47-cb38-4fff-9dee-cceb77d9c5c1.png): Action requires approval to execute on the specified target
    Note
    Note
    Pending actions expire if not approved within 24 hours of executing a playbook.
  • In progress... (in_progress=51020eba-8ed4-4fca-9bdd-73158770bb4d.png): Action executing on the specified target
  • Successful (successful=9cb8192f-f627-4fa2-b6dc-f77c09ac5d18.png): Action executed successfully
  • Unsuccessful (unsuccessful=78851f4e-24ea-4fde-bbe4-370e3d55f811.png): An error occurred executing the action on the specified target
  • Expired (expired=83F80B9E-6F02-4C2B-8E6C-6A69E8C78A93.png): Approval not given to execute the action on the specified target
