# Activate flow reporting

# Activate flow reporting {#ariaid-title1}

Choose whether to generate execution details for all flows and actions run, just for individual flows and actions, or just when you test a flow or action. Specify the level of detail the execution details contain.

## Activate reporting for an individual flow, subflow, or action {#ariaid-title2}

Generate execution details for an individual flow, subflow, or action every time it runs, not just during testing.

### Before you begin

Role required: flow_operator or admin  
Warning:  
To avoid performance issues on your production instance, activate and configure reporting on the non-production instance that you use for testing.

### Procedure

1. Navigate to AllProcess AutomationWorkflow Studio.
2. Depending on whether you want to activate reporting for a flow, subflow, or an action, select Flows, Subfows, or Actions on the header.
3. Open the flow, subflow, or the action for which you want to activate reporting.
4. If you want to enable reporting for a flow or a subflow, select Edit flow or Edit subflow.
5. From the More actions menu ![The More Actions icon](), select the reporting settings.
6. From the Reporting Level list, select the level of runtime data to generate and display in flow execution details.

       custom action. This reporting level is only valid on non-production instances  
       Important:

### Result

Workflow Studio generates execution details for the individual flow, subflow, or action.

## Activate reporting for all items {#ariaid-title3}

Generate execution details for all items that Workflow Studio runs
rather than just generating execution details during testing.

### Before you begin

Role required: flow_designer, action_designer, admin

### About this task

Important:  
To avoid performance issues on your production instance, activate and configure reporting on the non-production instance that you use for testing.

By default, the system only generates execution details when you run a test. You can
activate reporting for all items that Workflow Studio runs by setting
the com.snc.process_flow.reporting.level system property.

### Procedure

1. Navigate to AllProcess AutomationFlow AdministrationProperties.
2. Set the property Level of reporting data generated by the flow engine.

Testing an action or flow generates execution details at the Trace level.{#activate-reporting-all-items__flow-reporting-trace-dd}
   {#activate-reporting-all-items__flow-reporting-trace-dd}  
   Warning:  
   Avoid enabling the Full reporting option on a production instance. Full reporting generates execution details for every flow and action run on the instance. Creating and storing these execution details consumes system memory and can lower system performance. Instead, only enable reporting for specific flows and actions or test them on a non-production instance.
3. Select Save.

### Result

Workflow Studio generates execution details for all items you specified
in the system property.
