Workflow settings#

You can customize workflow behavior for individual workflows using workflow settings.

To open the settings:

  1. Open your workflow.
  2. Select the Options Options menu menu.
  3. Select Settings. REA Automation opens the Workflow settings modal.

The following settings are available:

  • Execution order: choose the execution order for multi-branch workflows. v0 (legacy) executes the first node of each branch, then the second node of each branch, and so on. v1 (recommended) executes each branch in turn, completing one branch before starting another. REA Automation orders the branches based on their position on the canvas, from topmost to bottommost. If two branches are at the same height, the leftmost branch executes first.
  • Error Workflow: select a workflow to trigger if the current workflow fails. See Error workflows for more details.
  • This workflow can be called by: choose whether other workflow can call this workflow.
  • Timezone: sets the timezone for the workflow to use. The default timezone is EDT (New York). The timezone setting is important for the Schedule Trigger node.
  • Save failed production executions: whether REA Automation should save failed executions for active workflows.
  • Save successful production executions: whether REA Automation should save successful executions for active workflows.
  • Save manual executions: whether REA Automation should save executions for workflows started by the user in the editor.
  • Save execution progress: whether REA Automation should save execution data for each node. If set to Save, the workflow resumes from where it stopped in case of an error. This might increase latency.

  • Timeout Workflow: toggle to enable setting a duration after which REA Automation should cancel the current workflow execution.

    • Timeout After: Set the time in hours, minutes, and seconds after which the workflow should timeout.
